What is the dominant view of homosexuality in Christianity?

Answer 1

Most mainstream denominations in Christianity view homosexuality as a sin and require gay people to lead a celibate lifestyle. Some force gay people to undergo dangerous and unsound treatments to "convert" to heterosexuality. Others believe this to be nonsense while still viewing homosexual behavior as a sin. There are also a handful of denominations that condemn gay people even if they are celibate, but this is not the norm.

On the other hand, there are quite a few denominations that accept gay people and recognize same-sex marriage, such as:
