Well as long as you are on page that a person after coming to Christ can not continue to live those sinful lifestyles then all is good, but if you believe they can continue to live that way you then are misinformed.
The bible clearly states people that continue to live willful sin lifestyles after coming to the Lord, are trampling the Son of God underfoot and disrespecting His sacrifice by treating His blood as a common thing. Meaning it has no power for remission to them that continue to live such ways.
We are to show love to everybody but in that love comes truth in the Word, and eventually and in times the bible shows that tough love is needed to get one to turn from their wicked (sinful) ways so that they will not be condemned with the world.
Continuing to live willful sinning lifestyles shows evidence the Holy Spirit does not abide in a person !!!

However, if any person in a secular state decides that they do not want to be Christian, then that is a personal choice that they have made for themselves, and they are under no obligation to obey the rules of a religion they did not make any commitment to be part of. It would not be fair of you to say to a non-Christian gay person who has no interest in being Christian: "you must obey Christianity's rules and regulations".
If we have two common citizens in a secular state -- a straight Christian and a gay non-Christian -- it is not the place of either to dictate for the other how they must live their own, personal lives. Each of those people live under the promise of personal liberty and individual freedom, so long as each of those people's actions do not cause any violation of rights upon the other person.
So, for instance, in secular countries, people have the freedom of practicing religion, and that freedom extends only insofar as it does not abridge another person's freedom to practice no religion. So, you could open a non-profit church tomorrow, and because of that church's status -- by virtue of its legal standing as regards its separateness from state -- you could refuse gay people entry and you could also refuse gay people a marriage. The reason you're allowed to do this is because you own the religious organization (the church) and that church's very purpose is to further the precedents of the Holy Bible, one of which is the teaching: homosexuality is a sin and marriage is between a man and a woman.
However, the state is not a church, and a judge or lawyer are not pastors or ministers. Therefore, it is not legal for you to be able to command the state to exclude gay people or refuse gay unions, because there is no fundamental secular principle upon which you can justify such a command -- the governmental body is separate from the churches and as such does not base its precedents upon biblical codes, but rather upon the right of all its citizens to be equal in the eyes of the law, and the right of each to utilize autonomy, personal freedom, and individual liberty within the self regulatory boundaries of those rights; functionally, those rights prevent infringement on the rights of others.
It is absolutely legally acceptable for a person to be gay and non-Christian, just as it is absolutely legally acceptable for a person to be straight and Christian.
