I'm sorry that you're angry, but try to be as open-minded as you ask everyone else to be. There has been a good deal of (undeserved) gay-bashing in this thread, but there has been just as much support for gay marriages or this thread would not have lasted this long.
Just so you know, the Church isn't "against homosexuals," and if you look around on the web, you can find several programs out there to help bring the homosexual community into the Church. So don't bash it without doing your homework, or you are being just as bigoted as those who are homophobic. Oh, and so you know the Mirriam Webster's (and the Bible's) definition of "abomination" is "something that is ritually unclean for a Jew to commit." Then again, the Hebrew peoples still haven't had the joys of pork chops either.
I'm not gay and to be perfectly frank, I don't care if you are. I'm willing to bet that most people would not care one way or another if they found out (with the possible exception of some dissapointed women and happier men;) ) with the possible exception of your family, so try to mellow out a bit. Good luck.
