Problem is there is no authority within the "Christian" church if same is defined as the American Protestant church. Thus, the Bible can logically be interpreted to justify any position. Who's to say that the liberal interpretation is wrong? By whose authority can you say their Biblical position on homosexuality is wrong? There are approximately 33,000 different protestant sects in the world all claiming to have been led to the correct interpretation by the Holy Spirit. When they all split along conservative/liberal lines on the gay issue, there will be about 60,000 churches. The true church has been rocked by scandal recently as secular poison has infected it. But it is immune from total collapse as its teaching is always correct even if the practices of individuals within are not. The Catholic Church will right itself and will sail proudly again being made stronger, ultimately, by the recent travails as promised, "...and the gates of Hell will not prevail against it." They may attack and injure, but never prevail!

This statement is untrue. Any true church is under the authority of Almighty God, and His Holy Word. Those that misinterpret it do so to their own destruction.
