"For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are also eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this, let him accept it."
Matthew 19:12

Round 'n Round
All the post comments on different gay Christians blogs all say the same thing; "You can't be a Christian because of what Leviticus says, because of what Paul seems to be saying, because Sodom..." If these kind individuals really had an interest in what the Bible says about homosexuality outside of the casual reading, they would have already looked it up with the countless resources that are out there before speaking in error. You know no matter what kind of rebuke by fellow Christians, attacks by non-believers, and explaining of scripture correctly by knowledgeable Christians these people get, they'll go right back on another gay Christian comment thread and say the same thing like nothing was ever said to them.

Patience, like vino, is something I don't 'do' anymore when it comes to explaining my walk of faith with my homosexuality. I'm hoping the "love covers a multitude of sins" Scripture will cover me like the hood of a 68' Mustang for me not having the patience with the anti-gay religious who want a fight anymore. As a Christian, it's something I should have plenty of (patience, not vino).
Recently I was contacted by a gay man who was struggling to make peace with his wanting to follow God. He was in such turmoil because he just couldn't make peace with being gay and what he felt was him not being in the place God wanted him to be in. In our correspondence he made me realize that I can't make him, or anyone, believe God loves you if you're gay no matter how many argument I refute or how well I explain the Bible verses on here. If you've set in your mind your homosexuality is a stumbling block between you and God, that's where your heart will be also. I believe there are some people who are just so branded by their beliefs, so entrenched in what they were taught, they will never change and are a forever lost cause.
