Exactly. My father, when he was alive, believed that homosexuality is a sin, thati s how he was raised, thatwas his faith. But he loved me, thus he was not a homophobe. So the same wih people who believe homosexuality as an action, as a way of living, is wrong. Thatalone does not make you a hater.

But i must say that it is also here the problem comes in, for me at least. It is not ONLY having sex with some one of the same sex that makes a person a homosexual. To think that is to trivise complex feelings and emotions, including love, attraction (not only physical atraction)etc.
