Starting from a wrong premise, indeed!
Church of England ignores pedophiles, necrophiliacs, zoophiles, etc. I can go on and on.
What makes homosexuals so special?
Ignoring and promoting sre two different things.
My first thought too, you can’t claim to be a Christian and a proud queer at the same time.
No they don’t.
After all, they can become clergy.
Or they ARE clergy.

Rom 16:17-19
17 I urge you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and put obstacles in your way that are contrary to the teaching you have learned. Keep away from them. 18 For such people are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people. 19 Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I am full of joy over you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil.
