Then why aren't Catholic priests llowed to marry? Are they supposed to have a relationship only with God? Also, Christianity preaches that you should be ashamed of sex. If they wanted people to reproduce why would they make them fear reproduction?
Is it because homosexuals are a minority, and humans naturally despise who isn't following the herd? Does religion preach against homosexuality so that it could attract the majority?
Religions become "leaders" by seeing which way the mob is running, then getting out front and yelling "follow me!"
Men have long been "instructed" by other men who are homophobes. These men were often the ones who are relentlessly obstreperous on the issue, and the overcompensation lead to hypermasculinity, making them the warriors and kings in the early days of our communal living.
This type is the kind of person the religious "leaders" ... sucked up to. (Pun sends thoughts and prayers your way.)

No kids in the family = possible extinction of the tribe.
Because gay people never have kids.
I think there is a fundamental principle across religions having to do with controlling penises and vaginas of other people.

Then why aren't catholic priests allowed to marry?
There was a problem in the church whereby priests were using their position to enrich their families, and at one time a bishops son could also inherit his position. They nixxed that as part of a combined political purge and anti-corruption sweep.
When you say "most" you exclude religious sects that view homosexuality (and a larger list of general abnormalities) as holy or sacred. The religion in question is the way it is because that;s the way the people who created it were. "God" inherited their small mindedness, and the similarly small minded find comfort in that conformity.

Essentially they think sex is evil. Notice how most of our curse words have to do with body parts, or excrement that comes from our bodies? We need to make babies, so that's the only way they can justify ever having sex. It's also why priests and imams and such aren't supposed to have sex. They're considered more pure that way.
Homosexuality doesn't produce babies, so they don't see anything good coming out of it, so they ban it. They don't understand that sex is as much about bonding as it is about childbearing. They also may not understand that straight people might decide they like oral and anal sex too.

Great, I guess we can shut down the forum then.
