ok so if G-d loves and supports gay people,
and so called christians are being unkind, they are erring on the side of Mean when he wants them to be nice. If for some hypothetical reason (and this is meant to be a hypothetical based ethics discussion), G-d does not support gay people because he thinks they are sinning and so called christians are being kind to them anyway, they would be erring on the side of being Nice. Since the almighty has not dropped in lately to clarify this, why not err on the side of being nice? Jesus himself said he did not come to condemn the world but to save it. He said not to cast the first stone unless you are without sin. he said do unto to others as you would have them do unto you.
how is it these people keep getting away with calling themselves christian when they do the opposite of everything he told them to do??
my opinion for wiw, is if there is a god, i have no doubt he loves everyone.

You know how, with the first kid, you're completely nuts -- if he/she eats a bug, you're tempted to take them to emergency. And by the time you have a third kid, and you see them eat a bug, and all you think is that you wish you had it on video. Well, extrapolate and imagine if you had had 15 or 20 billion kids over 250,000 years. That's the way God probably is. If he/she is, he's seen it all.
At this point, when Louie Gohmert, or somebody of his ilk, tugs at God's sleeve, complaining that some of their brothers and sisters aren't following all the rules, God probably just pats them on the head, points them toward the yard, and says "that's nice, now go play -- Daddy's busy."

as a practical guide to behaviour and attitude.
There is no objective standard of the "teachings". The interpretation of the scribblings of all of the Abrahamic religions is subjective, and can be used to justify almost any behaviour or belief.
Who's to say which is the right interpretation? Maybe the Pat Robertsons and Creflo Dollars of the world have got it right, and you've got it wrong.

People have to spin their holy books and only talk about the happy parts. A good christian would be out on Sunday smiting people who are working in their yards, since it is what the holy book says.
But alas, they are either lazy or hands over eyes and ears and La la la la la 
where life forms emerged 3 billion years ago, and the current form of hairless apes came to be about 200,000 years ago, there was one magical dead hairless ape who came back to life 2,000 years ago and will return to Earth soon to suck believers up into the sky.
Warren, how could you ever doubt such a thing?! 
Jesus recommends that to avoid sin we cut off our hands and pluck out our eyes. This advice is given immediately after he says that anyone who looks with lust at any women commits adultery. 5:29-30
5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
5:29 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
5:30 And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
Sounds like a swell guy! 
I would be interested in how they would explain the love of Jesus.
The ministers who were slain weren't too bright for being believers in God.
