Innacurate, "men who lay with men" are listed amoung the people who won't inherit God's Kingdom. I understand what you are saying though.
Jesus ate with men of all sorts, but he was clear that in order to inherit Gods Kingdom (I'll leave the interpretation of what that is to you) you should "flee from fornication". So Jesus didn't preach hatred towards people of any kind, which is why these extremists irk me.
