It easy to jump on the bandwagon of sins we don't have to deal with. Any destructive behavior needs to be dealt with. There are some sins which are acceptable to Christians.
We have people in the pews and in the pulpits who don't take care of their bodies, in direct violation of scripture. Those who gossip and those who can't say no when their bellies are full are going to meet the same fate as the homosexual.
Homosexuality is sin. So is gossip. So is causing division. So is undermining leadership (wpf). So is legalism.
Would Cece Winans have an obligation to preach against gossip if she sings at a church for tale bearers?
Would she have an obligation to preach against gluttony if she sings at a church full people who need a wide angle lens to get into the picture?
It is condesending and insulting to suggest someone preach against a certain sin, but not hold the to the same standards for other blatant sins.

Good grief.
Your line of reasoning there does not make a whole lot of sense.
Yes, gluttony is sin. Yes, gossiping is sin, etc. But...
There are no churches that have been
founded for the purpose of promoting gluttony, or gossiping, or lying, or thievery, etc. But "gay-accepting" churches have been
founded to promote acceptance of homosexuality. These churches
by their very existence, are in denial of, and rebellion against, the word of God!
Why is it so hard for you to see the very clear distinction there?

If professing Christians really can't see how "gay churches" are related to the larger "gay movement" affecting our society, and how "gay churches" are being used by the devil to undermine God's design of family and sexuality, then in my mind, these believers have serious issues concerning spiritual perception, discernment, and judgment. No wonder so many churches are powerless today.
