Orthodoxy and Same Sex Attraction

A great summation of the Orthodox view of same-sex attraction has been written here by Steve Robinson. Also there is the (ideal, yet sadly, in many cases ignored) reaction that we as Orthodox Christians should take towards those with SSA.

SSA?
Makes it sound like a syndrome or something. Is that a fair/wise thing to do?

I appreciate the link.

Not so much interested in what it "sounds like" as I am in what it is later defined to be: a sin.

It is, though, an accurate name for it: an attraction to someone of the same sex as yourself.
