I'm religious, but not conservative. Obviously I would love them just the same and not treat them any differently; I would not feel bitterness towards it, either. Heck, I've been reading some things lately that suggest that the anti-gay rhetoric in the Bible is just mistranslated scripture.
Just popping in to say that that does seem to be the case for some of it--there's actually a case to be made for the Pauline Epistles because of certain features of Greek rhetoric--but not all. People had to use and control sexuality in very specific ways back then, it was and often still is religiously sanctioned, and in critiquing certain passages or certain ways of trying to apply said passages we need to remember that each part of the Bible has its own very distinct history.
