Could mainstream christianity ever make peace with gay people?

Jerry Falwell on gays:

quote:

---

AIDS is not just God's punishment for homosexuals; it is God's punishment for the society that tolerates homosexuals.

​

Homosexuality is Satan's diabolical attack upon the family that will not only have a corrupting influence upon our next generation, but it will also bring down the wrath of God upon America.

​

I do not believe we can blame genetics for adultery, homosexuality, dishonesty and other character flaws.

​

I truly cannot imagine men with men, women with women, doing what they were not physically created to do, without abnormal stress and misbehavior.

Men do more manual labor than women because they are stronger.You use that apparently to support a rule banning women from talking in church, suggesting that there's a physiological reason for the disparate treatment.Pray tell, what is the physiological difference that justifies muzzling women?
