I am christian but in open minded, I do believe that the many things that the bible says is true but I have some doubts; I dont believe that someones sexuality has to do with its religion you can be who ever you want to be and since GOD is all loving he will still love you for who you are.

The Christian religion does not ban magical practices. In fact, most Catholic and Angelican rituals are based on magical principles. Nor does it talk against homosexuality per se. It does talk against sexual immorality. At the time the books of the bibl were written, that would have included homosexuality. Today... Well, that is for someone other than me to decide, thank goodness.
If someone does truely follow the Christian religion, they may tell you how they feel about your actions and choices, but they are not speaking of you. They should be able to seperate the person and what they do. They should never condem you. If you do not conform to their religion, they should love you anyway, and not judge you. OF course, most people let their ego get in the way, pick a fight and make themselves feel good.
Saying that Christians do not tollerate magic or gays is like saying Pagans are lesbian women who hate men. Neither statement is correct. (And before someone starts it, I do not feel that way about Pagans.) Respect for religion religious tollerance needs to start somewhere. It might as well start with us. No more bashing of religions. Christian, Pagan, or the worship of the All-Powerful Fred!
Of course its ok too be gay times have. moved on in the christen society its ok too be gay now if you can be wicca you can be gay from a magic point of few it has no affects as magic is personnel to you so being gay wount effect your magic
Yes, im CHRISTIAN, and a Gay Wiccan, but that wont stop me for being who i am! LISTEN TO YOUR HEART!!! (Just because its crazy, doesnt make it less true!)
Jesus loves everyone regardless of their sexuality. Sin in the bible has really gotten a bad name. When the bible talks about sin, a more direct translation of the word being used is "missing the mark". Therefore, when you "sin", you are really missing the point as to why we are here. Which I believe is to learn and grow and become enlightened. For various reasons that I will not get into in this post I also believe that the words that are translated hell in the bible are also misinterpretations. Furthermore, I believe that some of the quotations in the bible regarding homosexuality were added on later due to cultural biases. Others were improprerly translated and referred to any form of promiscuity reguardless of their sexuality. When we are sexually promiscuous we are missing the point as to why we are here. But that is also true when we spend our time doing anything that does not further the purpose of this life cycle. What the bible is teaching in these passages is balance and a reverence for love. What is important to remember is that God/dess IS love. All forms of love. This is an enduring truth that cannot be changed by the prejudice of others. If you wrote this post because you believe that you are gay remember that you were created perfect and are loved by the Divine spirit. I am straight but I support you in love and light. Blessed be.
