Grant, I honestly can't disagree with a thing you said. I was into the same sin as you were before my marriage. I don't count myself above homosexuals. I've commited equally grievous sins.

I think it is difficult to separate sin and sinner, especially when the sinner is upfront and unrepentant about the sin, to the point of even identifying himself with it ("I am a homosexual" as opposed to "I participate in homosexual activities"). And that may be part of the problem; out-of-the-closet gays identify themselves as homosexual, as if it were a core part of their being. I never went to my mother and said "Mom, I'm a fornicator". I might have been living with a girl and have told people that, but I didn't act as if it were an essential part of me. I think it's difficult for Christians to deal with someone who identifies so strongly with their sin. It makes them as uncomfortable as dealing with a satanist.

In Christ, Ken.
