With any situation like hating gays or being "pro life" (always in quotes for me), I think the issue isn't so much the religion, it's people using it as an excuse. Not going to absolve religion of gay-bashing, it's there in the Bible for you to see, but it's the fixation some Christians have on this one little sentence that's interesting. You notice how many people are suddenly devout Christians when the topic of homosexuality or abortion comes up? And these are more often than not people who have atrocious track records for adultery and scandal themselves.
"pro life" is a fucking joke and I don't know how more people don't see right through it. George Carlin said it best, with these conservatives it's "pro-life" until the child is born, then it's "no welfare! no food stamps! no gay adoption!". And again these same conservatives love to talk about some "pro-life" but in the same breath, defend America's poxy "right to bear arms". You can miss me with this "pro-life" bullshit.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
