And i must say today, that after searching through sites and checking some of my options. Im going to go with the Evangelical/Episcopal Lutheran church.
And to some who feel as though christians/lutherans wouldnt accept you based on sexuality, or that God doesnt, they really need to check the Evangelical/Episcopal Lutheran Church (ELCA) which did a sexuality study of the bible and based on all opinions of the church came up with this "studyguide" which offers interpretations of the Bible.
http://www.elca.org/faithfuljourney/study02.html that will give you the idea of almost ALL viewpoints of the lutheran church, not just the conservatives or liberals, it includes not All, but most. As of course because there are a multitude of opinions.
"With regard to homosexuality, the ELCA has followed the teachings and practices of its
predecessor church bodies. People of homosexual orientation are no more sinners than all
other people and are welcomed into the life of the congregations of this church. The
ELCA recognizes that homosexual orientation is a given and not in itself
blameworthy."
