"from a scriptural stand point"? I think they want acceptance of their lifestyle from a scriptural standpoint RG, that is simply not possible.
Also, the "Holy Spirit" speaks first and foremost through the written Word.

When at work we need to realize... we're not behind an pulpit... and unless someone shows interest in our thoughts, we best keep them to ourselves while on the clock. There is a time and place for everything.
Personally, when speaking to homosexuals, I encourage that we ALL need a relationship with Jesus. I state that we're all sinners and that Jesus came to wash us clean and change us from the inside out. I emphasize the power of the Holy Ghost and Grace. Most who hear me out realize that I'm not biggotted in the slightest. I'm just sharing my belief. And yes, I do believe that God can and does save individuals who struggle with a given sin their entire lives long. We don't earn our salvation. All who do receive eternal life will stand before Him with the knowledge that they far from deserved it.
