I retracted my statement, but I still can't stand people who participate in that sin. God never intended for two men to be together. The Bible condemns it, so I have a right to condemn it as well.

And that's your right, if you so choose. But just understand, there are some of us that deeply love people who are gay.

The Bibles condemns sin. Period.
Does it matter how far short you fall if you still fall short?

No. I do believe that Romans 2 categorizes this as one of the worst sins. It's against nature and it's mocking God's design.

What does small sin accomplish? Is it against the intended nature of GOD? Does it mock God's commandements? Is it selfish?
Do you see sin in a hierachical form?

I don't believe that there are big and little sins from God's perspective. There are sins that have worse immediate and/or natural consequences in this life, but in the longterm, all sin has the same result: death.
Whether you can "stand" people who are flamboyantly gay or not, you still have a biblical mandate to love others as you love yourself. I'm sure that would include being kind, polite and compassionate to homosexuals. Of course, that doesn't mean you have to hire a gay babysitter to watch your kids on the weekends or hire a thief to make your bank deposits.

Ridiculous. Do you have a sin-seriousness chart to add to your prophecy chart? So Lucifer has a thermostat and hell is hotter for gay people? Please.

Would you agree with me that there is an unforgivable sin?

I would assume you speak of blaspheming the Holy Spirit?
