I think we need to define terms one more time. Some of us are not speaking the same language here.
Aquila, when you say, "Homosexuality is a sin," do you mean that a person who experiences daily, unwanted, exclusive, same sex impulses is sinning? If so, he must have to be repenting, like, 24/7. Just like a heterosexual would have to be constantly repenting if an opposite-sex orientation was wrong.
Or, from what I understand from your posts, I think you could more precisely say, "Homosexual behavior or homosexual fantasy is a sin."
Truthseeker insists that the adjective "gay" or "homosexual" automatically implies sin. (Like "fornicating Christian.") But I think the terms "gay" and "straight" are amoral (neither right nor wrong). It just depends on how you act out those desires. For gay people, faithfulness might mean celibacy. For straight people, faithfulness might mean monogamous marriage.
