Dave, you are taking option 3 when you choose option 4.
God has been quite consistant with His condemnation of sexual sin thoroughout the Bible.
In the Epistles of Paul, we see various "purity" laws, such as the dietary laws, shown to be just that.
Homosexuality remains prohibited and a vile sin. You can try to rationalize it away if you wish, but the Bible states this. God's truth, which you consistantly pollute with your own personal feelings on the matter, is that He states that homosexuality and other sexual misconducts are not tolerable. Christians are instructed to not have fellowship with sexually immoral Christians. It's flat out stated there in numerous places.
If you wish to take the position that homosexuality, or any of the sexual sins, is acceptable, that's your freewill choice to do so. But it's not a Biblical position, no matter how you try to stretch it to suit your vision of what God ought to have thought about the matter.
This is why other Christians are appalled at the things you are writing, Dave. If you want to be a homo, or buddies with homos, then go--do what you want--enjoy. The world will agree with you. It's your choice. Just don't lie about the clearly stated will of God to justify your choices. If you don't agree with what God has said and you believe Him to be wrong, so be it.
