Actually, what you're doing here is called "Blaming the rock". I highly doubt you understand what that means, so I'll just go ahead and explain it.The irony of this first line here is just astounding. Because I care about this topic, I'm homophobic? You care about this topic, too, so I suppose you're homophobic and don't realize it? As a matter of fact, I support people doing as they wish so long as it doesn't infringe on the rights of others, and because the church is owned by that community, they can decide what they are and are not okay with. As a matter of fact, people can hate whoever they want, for whatever reason they want, so long as they don't infringe on the rights of others. Just like you can hate religious people simply because you disagree with them.
I hate religious people because Religion has brought thousands of years of misery to people.
And sure, if the religious nuts want to hate the gays, they can. But they should get their tax exemptions revoked when they do, just like the racist churches do.
A man finds a rock laying on the ground, and across the street, he sees a window. He pitches that rock through the window, shattering it. Using your logic, clearly the stone is to blame, and not the person who threw said stone.
You can take away their rocks, because they're dangerous, clearly since someone threw it through a window, but then people would throw bricks. You can take away the bricks, but then people would find other things to throw, endlessly. It's an exercise in futility.
Much like with the above argument, religion is the metaphorical rock. If you took away religion, it wouldn't prevent people from doing bad things to each other, as Atheists have committed mass murder as well. The Spanish and French Communes being the most immediate examples.
So, what you're saying is that people should be punished for believing differently from you? Ha, and you leftists keep saying fascism is right wing, yet here you are arguing everyone should believe as you do, and are bad people for not doing so.
