We are to love the homosexual. We are not to belittle or hurt them in anyway. It is however a sin, just as adultery, and lying is a sin. God however made a covenant for man and women to allow us to fulfill our desires of the flesh. This covenant does not cover the sins of same sex relations. What so many fail to realize is having straight sex is the same as homosexuality outside of marriage. However marriage is only between a man and a women under Gods law.
