Presumably those who accept the teaching but struggle with it in their lives will seek the counsel of their pastors to make positive changes in the way they live and will be encouraged and challenged to do the right thing.

Or I suppose they could rewrite scripture and proclaim it isn't really a sin after all, like they've done for others? Not that I expect that to happen any time soon.

Perhaps what’s meant by chastity is those who don’t engage in homosexual behavior? The sin isn’t the urge but the action.

Well, this entire problem began with the post-1930 legitimization in various Christian communities of such practices as contraception and divorce.
