You are saying this based upon mans opinion, not God's. As a Christian we must have God's opinion period.

Rarely go to church due to Hypocrisy in the church, even though I am a Christian

Well you are attracted to women, and I am sure before you were married you were attracted to other women. A same sex attracted person does not have that attraction of the opposite sex. He or she is unable to fancy anyone of the opposite sex. I am sure when they were growing up they felt different from the rest of their peers and ashamed of it. I am sure they wished to be attracted to the opposite sex like their straight peers. that,
For gays as well as everyone, they can only truly be transformed by the Holy Spirit.
Anyway there is far too attention on homosexuality within many churches and it should not be the case, and one of the worse experiences is where a pastor went on raving on the evils of a gay pride parade that was on that weekend and lost his temper. He can point to the sins of people outside the church but what about the sins inside the church which are not discussed such as adultery, divorce, etc.
If a gay person attends a church and has issues regarding it, it be better if he discusses that matter with the Pastor or priest in private.

Hi iLearn,
that's a statement to their detriment. You didn't back it up by neither scientific sources nor Bible.
Attacking them without giving any necessary documentaion of what you say... is disrespectful, I think.
this is comparing them to those wanting to commit a crime. Note that child abuse NEVER is consensual, that's the big difference to gay/lesbian relationships.
It's always best to not attack others.

that is... uhm. easier said than done.. can you do that? love the person who hates and persecute gays?
can you also love self proclaimed muslims aka extremists who raped and killed a lot of people without blinking an eye?.. just saying in reality very few people can do that...and right now how can i do that?
another thing is how do you know that the meaning of love that you know is the same as the love that God has been saying all along?
1 Corinthians 13:4 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
1 Corinthians 13:5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
1 Corinthians 13:6 Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
1 Corinthians 13:7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
1 Corinthians 13:8 Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.
was your love feels like this?

Do you think that it would be better if he was more intolerant towards adultery and divorce?

Adultery and divorce is a greater threat within the church than the secular world acceptance of gay marriage.
