The poll offers only two options: Does the Bible condemn homosexual practices or not?
You also stated: " I am NOT talking about the condition of a person being predisposed to homosexuality or a sexual preference. I am talking about actively engaging in homosexuality."
If you allow that people are predisposed to a sexual preference, those actively engaging in heterosexual activity could be questioned as well. Our society--and some writers of the Bible--approve sexual expression for heterosexuals within certain constraints, but not for homosexuals. In Massachusetts, and now California, opinions are being offered that there should be societal approval of some sort of sexual expression between homosexuals--in both cases, a legalized marriage relationship.
The poll, as written, assumes (or questions) responders Biblical views, and could have been edited to read, "Are you an inerrantist? Yes or No."
