You seem fundamentally incapable of grasping the difference between rejecting people LGBTQ people for their innate human characteristics and rejecting repugnant belief systems.

The difference is that I can’t stop being gay no matter how much I want to. You can stop being a bigoted piece of shit any time you choose. My sexual attraction is permanent and not voluntary. Your decision to condemn me for being gay is totally voluntary. Tons of Christians have chosen to stop believing disgusting things LGBTQ people, to stop teaching that we’re sinners and to stop morally condemning us for being members of a small human minority.

You could choose to be a decent human being if you wanted to. If not? Well, I guess people are just going to describe you as what you objectively are: a morally depraved bigot.
