Is there a religion that accepts homosexuality?

Gay Pray

• If there is, it is not in accordance with the word of God.
  
  
• There is a broad spectrum of beliefs in each faith that can range from downright execution to amiable tolerance to complete laisser faire. There are so many different interpretations of each holy book that homosexuality can be justified and allowed (to marry) or persecuted and relentlessly pursued and killed. It all depends.

• Metropolitan Community Church is a Christian (Protestant) church that was started in 1968 in the US by a gay priest, Rev. Troy Perry. It now has outreaches in many countries. See the Related link below.
  
  
• Recent news items have suggested that the Vatican is a "hotbed" of homosexuality. This implies that, regardless of its official position, the Catholic Church accepts homosexuality. No doubt, other religions are in a similar position.
• Update: After discussing this exact topic with one of my Theology Professors from college (albeit years ago, I'm older now), they flat-out answer is no. They will preach no, tell you no, and in most cases show you 'no'. However, as was said earlier, Catholics are becoming more and more flexible due to their embracing of the New Testament versus the Old. It is only stated in Leviticus 21:18 (I think) "If a man lieth with mankind as with womankind, it is abomination, their blood shall be upon them. They shall surely be put to death" Nowhere does it say anything about woman and woman. Just men and men, animals, etc. That being said, the Catholics believe that since these rules are not stated in the New, then they are open for interpretation. Muslims...the Qu'ran denounces any homosexuality, however, in Arab society it is perfectly fine for a man to meet his friend (be with him...ya know), then return to his home to be with his wife. They just use one of their three prayer times during each day and get forgiven. They believe it is wrong, do it anyway, and are hypocrites about it later. The Muslim part I witnessed being in Iraq for 5 years of my life while serving in the Military.
