Despite what many short sighted and bigotted people believe to the contrary the ethnic makeup of Jesus was not central to any part of his message. However, suggesting that he is gay does go against one of the tenets of the Christian belief structure...that not one letter of the law passed away at the coming of the Christ and if Jesus was God incarnate (as most christians profess) then the law stating a prohibition on homosexual acts was still in place. Therefore, suggesting he was a homosexual means that Christ sinned and therefore is not perfect and could not have atoned for sin...which is another foundation of the faith of many christians...THAT is why it is offensive.
Christ never defended himself against any charge and, yes, too many people go way too far in defending with ferocity the person of Christ. But to suggest that he was gay goes into the very foundation of Christian beliefs.
