The Catholic Church never said BEING homosexual was a sin. It just said all homesexual ACTS are sinful, both because any sex act outside of marriage is a sin, AND because homosexual acts are particularly unnatural and disordered.

Well, Christ was pretty specific about people who, in their hearts lusted after these things being just as guilty as if though they had done it. So, I believe being "homosexual," is invariably going to lead to homosexual sin, either in thought or action and therefore "being homsexual," is sinful as well if it leads to thoise thoughts and desires in a person's heart.

And the only salvation for ANY of that is Jesus Christ and Him crucified and how His atonement can change our hearts and make new creatures of us who are not ruled over by pure lust, passion, and emotion...but give all of that over to the true love of Chirst and His children.
