Do you respect & love those who are Homosexuals?

Regarding a person's sexual preference:

Do you feel the same for all people equally, or do you feel another way when it comes to men and women who are homosexual?

Update:

It's nice to have so many kind responses.

    People who are sexually attracted to people of the same gender are still people and still deserve our love.

    Contrary to what organized religion says about homosexuality it is not the devil's business and it is not sick or evil. Just like mixed-ethnicity relationships, they were misunderstood for a long time. There are alwasy going to be biggots in the world to try and mess that up but all they're going to do is expose the fact that they are full of hatred.

    With the world way it is today.I believe that 99% of all homosexuals live in a different world of there own and they try an get along in a straight world the best way they can. Respect is a two way street, you got to give it in order to receive it.

    Yes, i see everyone as the same. Being gay does not make you any less human. I would treat a homosexual with the same kindness and respect as i would anyone else.

    I don't see them any different to any other human being on this planet... they are such misunderstood people by our society today. i mean we all have blood running in our veins(I haven't seen a homosexual person who bleed water just yet...)and we all breathe from the same air, why should we treat eachother and different?

    they only by chance find the love of their life and just by chance that person they love lives in a body of the same sex... could they choose who they love? do we then blame love?

    I love and respect all humans, unless they prove themselves unworthy by being mean, deceitful or hateful. My best friend is gay, I call him my brother/sista. A persons sexuality is as important to me as is the brand of soap they use, in other words, not at all.

    Of course. What difference does sexuality make? It's whether they have a good character (and other qualities) that determines whether I respect someone or not.

    Yeah, I do. I dont think it matters who someone chooses to engage in sexual activity with - so long as it's consentual and legal, I think it's their own choice. It doesn't change who they are. They have the same chance to earn my friendship as anyone else does.

    I can't say I respect all gay people, but I'll say I'd give a gay person the same chance to earn my respect as I would anyone else.

    People really have to respect each other

    even what kind of people they are.

    even they are homosexual or not I have to respect them, and they respect me too. This is what important attitude people need to have.. this is behavior.

    Obviously I do, being gay. I don't judge anyone based on anything, and that's one of my best traits. I don't stoop as low as manipulating phrases in the bible to back up my hateful agenda either. People are just ignorant.
