Right. Christians who are gay. Homosexuality is against the Bible. What kind of Christians are these? What do they think of what God says about homosexuality?
Oh boy. This is going to be a long one.
First of all, I was raised Catholic, and the Catholic Church only has a problem with
sexual activity between members of the same sex. The Catholic Church couldn't care less about the fact that different sexual orientations exist. Their only instruction for LGBT Christians is that they shouldn't have sex outside of opposite-sex marriage, which is the same rule that they say to heterosexual Christians. They sincerely hope that all LGBT Catholics continue to call themselves Catholic, so bring it up with the Pope.
Second of all, there are a couple different levels to this.
First, there's the matter of whether it's wrong to identify as LGBT. The Catholic Church says there's no problem with that, and I can't think of an LGBT person that I know, Catholic or not, who thinks it's wrong. Actually, I can't remember
anyone, Catholic or not, saying explicitly in my presence that it's wrong to identify as LGBT, and I've been going to Catholic educational institutions for 15 years now.
The next level is whether or not same-sex marriage should be legalized. Even my more conservative Christian high school friends said that same-sex unions with full rights should be legalized, albeit without the use of the word "marriage." I think I might have a couple college friends who are against legal recognition altogether because there's a bigger mix of backgrounds at my college than at my high school. Remember that two-thirds of my generation is religious and 70% support the legalization of same-sex marriage. You do the math.
The next level is whether or not it's wrong to participate in sexual activity with someone of the same sex. I definitely know people who think it's wrong because I know that I have friends who think pre-marital sex is immoral, but I would say that the majority of the Christians my age whom I know don't believe that sex with someone of the same sex will send you to Hell. They just feel that it's one of the parts of the Bible that was added by a human without God's approval, just like the line a couple verses before that one that says it's immoral to have sex with a woman while she's on her period.
In summary, yes, Christians who are gay. And bi. And lesbian. And transgender, asexual, pansexual, and allied. What a concept.
P.S. In order to ensure that this doesn't get moderated for seeming to say that homosexuality is reconcilable with Christian values, I would like to make it clear that I am only reporting what I have witnessed and been told throughout my life. I am not Christian and therefore have no opinion about what does or does not fit within Christian values.
