What hypocrisy?
Homosexuality is a sin, and they will be the first to say what their son did was also a sin. Both need forgiveness.

Drich, question. I understand your view of homosexuality as a sin that needs to be forgiven. My question is: is there any sin or series of sins committed over one's life that cannot be forgiven, thus the former sinner ends up in heaven?

Blaspheme of the Holy Spirit is the only sin we can not be forgiven of.
All other sins can fall under the rules of atonement.
That is why it is important to identify Homosexuality as a sin, so the sinner can seek atonement rather than try and justify one's sin.
I understand. Can you give a very summarized account of how one would seek atonement?

Even if you believe homosexuality is a sin it's still hypocritical of them to condemn gay people while expecting people to forgive them when one of their tribe does something wrong. They should either live and let live with regards to LGBT people or accept the condemnation of others for their (actual) sins
“The larger the group, the more toxic, the more of your beauty as an individual you have to surrender for the sake of group thought. And when you suspend your individual beauty you also give up a lot of your humanity. You will do things in the name of a group that you would never do on your own. Injuring, hurting, killing, drinking are all part of it, because you've lost your identity, because you now owe your allegiance to this thing that's bigger than you are and that controls you.” - George Carlin
