Vedic, in our Hinduism there is diversity, in which gays and lesbians and bisexuals or transgender etc people are accommodated on the grounds that each person has his or her own dharma derived from the guna consciousness that he or she is born with. These blends of sattvic, rajasic and tamasic gunas make them do what they do and we are appreciative of their existence as God's creation on Earth. If we do not celebrate diversity we are not Hindus. We are not real human beings with knowledge of the universe and its various aspects and manifestations. Life is wondrous.

Of course there may be particular religions within Hinduism which do not tolerate these sexualities and if you say that Vedic religion is one such belief system you are entitled to your view. But by writing what you have done you need to provide concrete scriptural literature to prove that we should not be promoting these sexualities in the name of Hinduism.

We all have our points of view and you are welcome to express yours but it cannot go unchallenged. So where do you get the notion that LGBT people are not allowed to develop their own religion within Hinduism taking their guidance from existing literature within Hinduism?

Vedic is not a Hindu. He practises "Vedism", worship and devotion to Indra and the other devatas. Technically he should not be posting in this DIR.
