As much as I despise the homosexual agenda, I don't believe Christians can support capital punishment for these crimes and remain consistent with the teachings of Jesus Christ.

I'm satisfied if we are simply allowed to ostracize such people and keep them out of our homes, our businesses (as employees, at least), and from positions of authority in our schools.
