Examples of Homosexual in a Sentence

1. The Pope:

   Homosexual people have a right to be in a family. They're children of God and have a right to a family. Nobody should be thrown out or be made miserable over it, what we have to create is a civil union law. That way they are legally covered.

2. Ron Peri:

   There are a lot of unhealthy effects of a homosexual lifestyle, there are diseases, but it goes beyond that.

3. Monsignor Krysztof Olaf Charamsa:

   My decision of 'coming out' is a very personal decision in the homophobic world of the Catholic church. It has been very difficult and very hard. I ask that you keep in mind this reality that is difficult to understand for anyone who has not lived through an identical passage in their own life, the timing is not intended to pressurize anyone, but maybe a good pressure, in fact a Christian participation, a Christian voice that wants to bring to the synod the response of the homosexual believers to the questioning of Pope Francis.

4. Archbishop Diarmuid Martin:

   One (allegation) is that there is a homosexual, gay culture, that students have been using an app called Grindr, which would be inappropriate for seminarians and not just because they are going to be celibate priests, if this is going on a large scale in the seminary and it hasn't been noticed in the seminary, then there is something wrong.

5. Monsignor Krysztof Olaf Charamsa:

   Every homosexual person is a son of God, this is the will of God for our life, also for my life with him.
