If Jesus wouldn’t discriminate then he wouldn’t discriminate against those that discriminate against homosexuality either. In other words he would be tolerant of those that are intolerant of homosexuality.

If someone is a homosexual and wants to follow Jesus, they have to do what the rest of us sinners do -- confess to Him their sin, and then ask for His help in stopping us from sinning.

We cannot come to Jesus and then not follow Him!

And I find the homosexual arguments about "would Jesus discriminate?" absurd. He never discriminated against those who would follow Him. Be it prostitutes, tax collectors, or adulterers. But He always told them to sin no more. This is what He said (Sermon on the Mount, Matthew 5:27):

"You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.'But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell."

Now, would someone with THAT level of moral standard think that homosexuality is okay?

I think not.
