Absolutely not. You have to be trolling to make us believe that you think homosexuality is a bigger sin than abortion...
Being an atheist, I don't think there is anything wrong with either being gay or having an abortion, but I'd consider that there are personal rules that I would adhere to:
1. Is the mother in danger.
2. Does the child have a high percentage chance of being born with a low quality of life.
Having personally been through a situation where a doctor misdiagnosed my wifes pregnancy (dignosed vomiting as a symptom of gal bladder disease and subsequently prescibed nuclear tests and anti nauseants that are not to be taken while pregnant ) it crippled the development of our child and we chose to abort because the child could not be born with a reasonable quality of life (5 working senses...high functioning brain.) Being gay does not depreciate a childs basic biological functions so that would never be a factor. If my child is gay, they are gay, and they will celebrate it the same as any straight person would. Why anyone is still bothered by the whole homosexuality thing is beyond me...God not withstanding.
