There is a saying my Grandmother has, love the sinner, not the sin. Homosexuality is wrong, but there have been medical studies, psychological studies and sociological studies pointing out a variety of causes. Who are we to judge? God will do that with perfect knowledge of the persons intentions and failings.
Israfil, If you have friends that you can show unconditional love towards, understanding both their strengths and weaknesses. Then you're a far better person than many so-called Christians I know and completely undeserving of a personal attack.
God Bless.

I appreciate the comments my only thing was that if we disagree on something especially something serious such as the discussion on Homoexuality, please respect the person and not refer to their personal issues. I think it totally takes away from the discussion if you come and say that "no reason why so and so did this to you because you think like this." I apologize to my brethren if I'm kind towards homosexuals. I do not hate them as people! because they are human! I care for all human beings because we are of the same species and the only way to accomplish things is to unify ourselves in the best interest for humanity.

Israfil, you have made me very pleased. My beloved first born child, and my only daughter, is a lesbian. I love her with all my being. I understand every word you say.
God Bless You Always.

Israfil, Please don't apologise, you are not in the wrong.
Patty, you got me curious. How come your daughter is a lesbian? Do you agree with that or not? is it a sin for you? Do you have a good relationship in spite of this (I think you mentioned somewhere homosexuality as a capital sin)?
You do not have to answer if you do not wish to. I understand this is personal.

I have no idea why my daughter is a lesbian. She told me when she was 18. She told me she always knew she was. She said "I did not choose to be this way. Do you think anyone would choose to be a homosexual when they know the discrimination they will have to face?"
No, it is not the life I would like her to have. Yes, I have a beautiful, loving and kind mother/daughter relationship with her. I love her, I hate homosexual activity. (The sin of the act...NOT the person.) I pray for her all the time. She is my sweetie! And God loves her too, not the homosexual act, but He loves my daughter...he created her.
God's Peace.
