So something's bothering me, based on some news articles I've seen floating around the interwebs.
As an LGBT person who is a member of a religion that is not exactly LGBT-friendly (Christianity), I've had my fair share of encounters with homophobia and discrimination based on theology and scripture.
But the thing is, Christian homophobia is so much different than other kinds out there. People say that statements like "I support you and your lifestyle but I feel that marriage should be kept between a man and a woman." Are so outrageous, and they ARE wrong, but we as American gay men and women are SO LUCKY compared to those in other nations.
atheism.about.com/b/2005/07/25… LOOK.
Read that quote about what they do to any gay man or woman caught being sexually active in Iran.

"Homosexuality is illegal, those charged with love-making are given a choice of four deathstyles: being hanged, stoned, halved by a sword, or dropped from the highest perch."

HALVED. BY. A. FUCKING. SWORD. Why? WHY are the laws these way in these countries? Because of its roots in Islam. Because of a statement in the Quran.

And now look at countries like Sweden, which have atheistic population and a completely secular government. Would you ever see a gay man hanged or halved by a sword there? No. They're one of the most gay-friendly nations in the world.

So the point I'm trying to make here is when people say things like "CHRISTIANITY IS SO EVIL IT SHOULD JUST BE OBLITERATED FOREVER BECAUSE THEY CALL US SINNERS IN NEED OF PRAYER AND HELP" They're mistaken. It's not evil. Compared to Muslim homophobia, the Vatican the motherfucking pride parade.

The answer to homophobia is not the obliteration of religion entirely. And it's not whining about being told we are sinners. It's fighting for Church vs. State, secular government, and making sure that religion is not involved ANYWHERE in our laws or government. Otherwise, we could very well end up like gay people in Iraq or Iran. Hiding for our lives from people who claim to be serving God and their country by slicing us in half for being who we are.

It's sickening. Truly sickening.

RANT OVER.
