When reading the last post, remember that in the NT, Jesus never mentions homosexuality, even though he grew just a few miles from a fair-sized Hellenistic city. Possibly he never go around to talking about it since he spent so much of his time telling his followers about love and forgiveness. Yes, Paul did condemn homosexuality, but last the name on the door says "Christian", and "Paulist", so I'm going to defer to the big guy on this one.
But Jesus did have a stern message for the callous:
41“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43I was a stranger and you did not invite me in, I needed clothes and you did not clothe me, I was sick and in prison and you did not look after me.’
44“They also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison, and did not help you?’
45“He will reply, ‘I tell you the truth, whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.’
