What religions reject gay people?

Answer 1

Because marriage is between a man and a woman. There is no such thing as Adam and sSeve; it was Adam and Eve. Also when two people of the same sex get together they cannot reproduce. Marriage is not just about love; God also created it to reproduce within the right context.

Because we think that Jesus didn't want that. Just think would Jesus do that?

Answer 2:

Religions don't reject gays as individuals; they reject the act of sodomy which the Scriptures deem as sinful (see Romans 1:26,27). Leviticus 18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them. Romans 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Answer 2

The following religions either reject gay people or require them to give up their right to get married and have families:

• Islam (all branches)
  
• Most denominations of Christianity, in particular, the Catholic Church and The LDS Church
  
• Some branches of Orthodox Judaism, though most Orthodox communities will not reject a Jewish person for being gay even if they're not celibate. They just may not give them certain honors in the synagogue. (All non-Orthodox branches of Judaism accept gay people)
• Baha'i faith

Answer 3

Christianity and Islam both reject gay people based on verses of their scriptures which refer to the sexual intimacy of gay people as a sin. Some will draw a distinction between gay people and their ways of intimately bonding with partners and starting families, and say they hate the sin, not the person, but gay people still feel hated.

Answer 4

Gay people are accepted in most religions if they agree to be celibate. However, if the question is referring to gay people who want to pursue intimacy and/or marriage and children with members of the same sex, the following is a partial list of religions that would not accept them:

• The Catholic Church
  
• The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon)
  
• Adventism
• Baptists
• Jehovah's Witnesses
• New Apostolic Church
• Lutheran Church (Missouri Synod)
• Assemblies of God
• Evangelical Free Church of America
  
• Presbyterian Church in America
  
• Islam
• Orthodox Judaism (gay Jews are not kicked out, but gay people can't convert to Orthodox Judaism. Also, many Orthodox synagogues will still give honors to gay Jewish men during services)
