They have reluctantly accepted that some people are born gay, but nevertheless have made the phrase "homosexual LIFESTYLE" all-pervasive to obscure the fact that some people are born gay. This is intended to cast doubt on the idea that some people are born homosexual. Nevertheless, they accept that homosexuality is an involuntary condition that some persons are born with, but claim that acting upon one's given homosexual nature is a 'sin'. This is incoherent, as it does not explain how acting on one's given nature is 'sinful' for some members of the species and 'good' for other members of the species. Not all of the human species is heterosexual but they assume that person must act as though it were. When discussing why consenting homosexual acts are 'sins', they fail to produce any victim of harm. The only explanation they have for why homosexuality is 'sinful' is a stigma that comes from outdated biblical passages written before it was understood that homosexuality is natural for some people. Protestants also attempt to stigmatize homosexuality by making bad analogies - suggesting, for example, that the homosexual condition (tendency) is to homosexual actions as ployamorous tendencies are to the act of bigamy. But polyamorous tendencies are not essential to one's nature - rather they are the WAY in which some heterosexuals want to express their inborn nature (heterosexuality). On other Words, although one cannot help being heterosexual, one can nevertheless choose whether to express that nature in monogamous or polyamorous ways.
A better analogy would be to say that homosexual orientation is to homosexual actions as heterosexual orientation is to heterosexual actions. In both cases the orientation does not automatically indicate whether the associated actions are "good" or "evil" until we take into account the intentions of the agent. Just as not all homosexual acts are morally good, neither are all heterosexual acts morally good. In either case, the moral status of the act depends upon more than just the biological structure of the act. It depends upon consent, intention, etc..
