There's lots of stuff that's can be considered sins. Many of which I do, because I'm a sinner first and foremost, unfortunately
I guess. I just don't think innate sexual attraction to a gender is one of them. That's like being right handed or left handed, imo.

Deeming something a sin doesn't mean you treat the person engaging in said behavior any differently, though, and there's the rub.
If I ever trick some female in to having my children, and I view my children behaving in a shitty way, I'll love them just as much, but I'll try and alter their behavior. Some of that might be sinful behavior. While "treating them any differently" doesn't mean I loathe them, as that is most likely impossible, I will address their behavior as wrong and help them avoid that. If they are lying, stealing, cheating, etc... I think I would address it. The gay thing, would be super uncomfortable, but I wouldn't treat it the same.

I won't disagree. Mainly because there's far more important shite to be worried about, IMO.

I guess my point is that Christians should treat those who are perceived as sinning with respect, regardless of the sin. Of course when it comes to child-rearing, that'd be a pretty big social issue to navigate whether you're a believer or not

Overindulgence in alcohol is just as much of a sin as homosexuality when it comes to the Bible--it's disingenuous to treat one issue as more deserving of a shite fit than the other, IMO.
ETA: In a weird way, I think we're kind of agreeing, my n*gga. Just coming at it from two different directions
