What does “attraction” to the same sex even mean? Noticing someone of the same sex is an attractive person? Wanting to do something physically intimate to them? I think the word “attraction” can act as a euphemism and brings added confusion to when people should repent.

It is difficult to remain soft spoken on the things that are left ambiguous in scripture. When you review scripture holistically, I believe, there is a component of desire that can become sin and a component of a desire that is not sinful. In your anger do not sin. I do believe Jesus experienced real temptation for bread. He probably experienced real hunger pangs. But when we speak in sweeping generalizations, dogmatic certainty, and attempt to go beyond the clarity not yielded by scripture, we are vying for attention and competing for God’s glory and authority instead of humbly wrestling with scripture.
