The homophobic Christians are more sophisticated. The previous report is how a homophobic Church got involved in the AIDS charities to make their homophobic Christianity seem okay to others and to their own members.
Also, one of the things which deflect Gays or restrains Gays in dealing with homophobic Christianity is the idea that there is a true Christianity which isn't like the Christianity we encounter. It is true that there are liberal denominations, but they are a small percentage of Christianity globally or in the United States. They work primarily to distract Gays from considering what the historical record of Christianity is, and what it is likely to be. Also, to critically review its beliefs. Liberal Christianity is regular Christianity in remission.
Being an x minister/Christian I know they do not need a biblical verse to justify hate. Just like the rest of it ...it can be made up from blank paper and say it is God's will. God always seems to hate the same people they do.
Religious hate that is performed from tax free churches. Easier to hate than to practice charity and living up to the beatitudes of Jesus
