Is being gay a sin according to your religion?

evidence that before any respectable civilization existed, homosexuality was around
Homosexual behaviors were a normal part of life for ancient Greeks, and even earlier:

Gay people can be found throughout recorded history, and the stereotypes about them may have been around just as long, Egyptologist Greg Reeder said in a speech in Dallas this weekend.
His proof: the tomb of Niankhkhnum and Khnumhotep. The two men were royal court manicurists who lived about 2400 B.C. in the ancient Egyptian city of Saqqara and were buried together much like a married couple.

The male body – said to date back to between 2900-2500BC – was discovered buried in a way normally reserved only for women of the Corded Ware culture in the Copper Age.
The skeleton was found in a Prague suburb in the Czech Republic with its head pointing eastwards and surrounded by domestic jugs, rituals only previously seen in female graves.
"From history and ethnology, we know that people from this period took funeral rites very seriously so it is highly unlikely that this positioning was a mistake," said lead archaeologist Kamila Remisova Vesinova.
"Far more likely is that he was a man with a different sexual orientation, homosexual or transsexual," she added.

How dare you, you're causing me some distress...
Waaa? I have no tolerance for anyone who would dare to call a child "not proper" or "unnatural." You may not say it, but even just having the thought means you would treat them differently.

You state your own view, and then refute mine for being ignorant. That's hardly civilized.
But they're not proper. They're authentically made. Their whole perception of life is unnatural
Your view is ignorant because it is flat out wrong. What's hardly civilized is saying that children born of artificial insemination aren't "properly conscious beings."

You clearly have no idea what artificial insemination is. It's a medical process where semen is injected into a vagina or uterus. Like sexual intercourse without the penis.

Shadow wolf quite upset me. I don't reckon i'll stick around here much longer :/ i state my honest feelings and people just attack me... im so upset..

dont u see that they're not like us? we were brought into this world. they were made like robots.. its not ethical to make something like a human using unnatural means
I apologize that you're upset but you wouldn't be able to tell if I child was conceived in such a manner. A person is a person, they look like you and me, they breathe like you and me, the have the same feelings and emotions, you wouldn't know unless they told you.

When you say things that are flat out wrong, you're going to get called on it.
"They" are exactly like us. They are the product of the meeting of a sperm and an egg.

I know my science. clones are not real like those storm troopers. bet those people hardly even know why they're living or what their purpose is

Because you have a terrible mentality towards certain children, children who are no different than any other child and in no way deserve to be thought of as "unnatural."
I DON'T. I said i don't overtly treat them badly. What's so bad about just having, according to you, bad thoughts towards them? they'll never know

How dare you, you're causing me some distress... it's my honest view. they're not natural though.. i would never tell them that, but its what i think. im not a bully shadow wolf :( i was the guy that was bullied at school. im sorry u were tormented as a child

Classic bully excuse #1 employed. Let's see if you employ any others.

Pahahahaha!! Are you really trying to tell us the Egyptians, the Persians, even the Greeks weren't respectable civilisations? Pull the other one!

You clearly do not know your science if you think cloning is the same thing as artificial insemination. Clones are genetically identical to the individual they were derived from. Artificial insemination produces children that are a mixture of the parent's genes, just like someone who was conceived via sexual intercourse. Big difference.
You are just factually wrong.
