Only liberal Protestant churches, that don't adhere to Biblical teachings and instructions, would accept homosexuality as normal. Those, which are conservative, Bible-believing churches, would call homosexuality sin, along with adultery, and sex outside of marriage.
There has been a split in many denominational churches of recent times over this issue, especially when ordination of homosexual individuals are in question. Usually, the issues extend beyond the homosexual issue.

Perhaps not most, but certainly a good number do. Protestants have, historically, been more accepting than most bible believing christian-based religions.
They take "Love thy neighbor" to heart and when they state that "All are welcome", they mean it. Plain and simple.

Furthermore, many churches believe that homosexuality is neutral, but that if gays pursue sexual fulfillment, they are sinning (gay people must remain celibate).
