Just because there are practicing gays who claim to be Christians doesn't mean they are Christians, I know people who claim to be Christians and I believe they are as lost as last years Easter egg.
I've read Leviticus a number of times, some of the laws were meant only for the nation of Israel and some for all mankind, so one needs to study this book carefully to know the laws. That particular verse was meant for the nation of Israel and you have no idea what it is implying and I know this because you can only see what is written in the passage and not how it was applied to their lives, it was very relevant to them and there journey with God. In spirit that law has been carried into Christianity by Jesus.
Let's get this clear, I see the practice of homosexuality unnatural, even before I became a Christian, I'm not bigoted that would include hate and I do not hate homosexuals period.

Secondly, isn't is spooky how the rules you decide were "meant for the nation of Israel" are the ones you disagree with, and the ones you decide were "for all mankind" are the ones you do?
Thirdly, "I see the paractice of homosexuality unnatural" is not any kind of argument. If "unnatural" things were actually an issue for you, you certainly wouldn't be on the fucking internet.
