I agree with markolas regarding the Unitarian Universalist church -- it is not considered to be a Christian denomination by most mainline churches, and most of its members do not consider themselves Christian (I think only about 10% of their members do so.)
In addition to the Unity Church, the only other mainline denomination I think would qualify as pro-gay would be the United Church of Christ. The Episcopal Church is so-so.
Depending on what day you ask me, I can be anywhere from an agnostic to a liberal Christian. I do not consider the Bible to be the Word of God nor do I consider it inerrant.
