Nothing is saying that these Gay groups need to be accepted in a leadership role by straight people. I don’t judge people by who they go to bed with, any more than what color their skin is. We had a women’s hockey coach in high, who was openly lesbian, who was an excellent role model and coach, whose life was above reproach as far as the students were concerned, but we had a lesbian at our church, who molested her own daughters and stalked my mother. This was back in the sixties.

Right. I don't think anyone cares whether or not gays are in leadership roles in society in general. The issue here is not leadership roles in society, but leadership roles in the church (which is anti-Biblical).

The Lord does!

"Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." - Romans 1:22-32

Except for the complicating factor that homosexuality is a sin according to God and is a matter of choice of behavior, whereas, skin color is what we are born with, which nobody has any say over, and is not something God condemns others for having as sin.

Trying to compare them is comparing apples to oranges.
