It's really all semantics, but technically, it's not a sin to be gay. In other words, it's not a sin to be attracted to someone of the same sex. It is a sin to have "unpure thoughts" about someone of the same sex, or to actually have sex with someone of the same sex.

The Bible thinks it's sin to give in to temptation. The temptation part isn't the sin. The "giving in" part is.
