I stress I'm not saying I agree with what CV are saying (in fact I don't), but the message you seem to be giving appears to be illogical.

To be honest I think they need to find some better way to deal with homosexuality. All the evidence suggests it's a biological preference, not a matter of choice. Therefore what is to be achieved by preaching against their lifestyle? They can't choose not to be gay, they didn't choose to defy the will of god.
If you believe that god controls these things then surely it is his will, intention or reasonability that they are gay anyway in which case it's rather bizarre to then make it a sin. At best he isn't taking an interest in someone sexuality but judging it after the fact.
To be honest this is probably a debate to have within your own religion amongst those who understand the scripture better, you don't need me poking in tell you how to reconcile these things (not that it stopped me).
