Then you may need to understand Christianity more. Yes Christians are to show forgiveness and I'm sure the organisation in question would not be against any homosexual who wanted to join them and showed repentance for their 'sin' (note: I am not trying to get you to agree that it IS a sin but if for a moment you can see this from a Biblical perspective). In the same way I'm sure they would not turn away an ex-thief.
As for tolerance I don't know enough about the CV to know their true stance but I don't see anything wrong in speaking out against that which you disagree with. As I've said, being a Christian does mean being a doormat and throwing all your principles out of the window.
