You sure about that? I think you had better tell the pope.

If you buy one Shure SM58, and it is bad out of the box...no, it explodes while pulling it out of the box, would you assume that ALL microphones are bad?
Thats a terrible analogy. I have never come across a bad SM58 straight out of the box! On the other hand EVERY religion that I have ever encountered has been full of bigotry and hypocrisy, and furthermore entirely fails to provide satisfactory answers to the eternal questions it claims to address.

Our standard for church is biblical.
I refer you back to Ezekiel 23. Does your church murder prostitutes and their children? Why not? That's the biblical standard you ought to be aspiring to, no?
And what about Usury? (lending money at interest, in case you don't know what it means) That is condemned in the bible (and I actually kind of approve of that bit!). How come you choose to ignore that?

and churches ARE considered pretty much dead where you are
Fortunately, yes. As a consequence, Britain is a more civilized society than the US. (compare our annual murder rates if you don't believe me!)

Homosexuality is a choice. How do you as a non-beleiving atheist prove that it isn't?
I know that I had no choice regarding my own sexual orientation: I fancy women, but don't fancy men. I also know that gay friends of mine feel exactly the same in reverse. And bi-sexual friends have come to terms with feeling attractions to both.
I suspect your conviction that it is a choice may be due to your own experiences. Perhaps you have felt attracted to members of the same sex, and have had to repress those feelings due to your religious brainwashing. If that is the case I feel sorry for you. But I also despise you for your hypocrisy.
When God created man, he made a mate. It was Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve.
Is this what passes for reasoned debate round your parts?

You can't hold a recording console together with all screws. There must be some nuts and lock washers, or atleast a whole for a self tapping sheet metal screw to go into.
You seem to be rather ignorant as to the mechanics of gay sex. Ever heard of oral sex? Anal sex? You shoud try it, its great!

You can't base your beliefs on science. Science is man's best guess at what is going on. Science changes. Health care changes. What is a "fact" today will change tomorrow when someone else guesses with better tools and a fresh point of view.
That is exactly why I do trust science. It is flexible enough to take account of new information, and it actually WORKS! Where it not for science we would have no internet on which to discuss this, and no PA systems for you to spend your churches ill-gotten gains on!
