a faith that doesn't count homosexuals a members of a minyan

There is nothing in Judaism that prevents gay men from being counted into a minyan, any more than pork-eaters, or Sabbath violators.

Welcoming such people into a congregation does not imply an endorsement of their conduct, but rather a request to help them repent.

Living without the joy of eating properly prepared and BBQ'ed and sauced baby backed pork ribs, seems an intolerable discipline to me.
