LGBT in church?

OK, so before we scratch out each other's throats, I simply want to know what an average day Christian thinks about this issue. I am a Christian as well and my stance is no because of what I've found in scripture and what I've studied from it. But I also understand there is a huge rise in tolerance for the LGBT community in churches. What is your opinion? Should we embrace the community or reject the concept from our sanctuaries?

I want to clarify that, although I am against what the LGBT's lifestyle I do love them and respect them as human beings, as God's creations, and I do invite them to church to hopefully truly experience the love and renewing spirit of Christ.
