If your morality does not agree, it is corrupted.

What you’re doing is judging me by your own moral standards (which is fine, as far as it goes), but the clear implication is that you believe your own moral standards are absolutes. That’s a position you can’t possibly justify. 

For what it’s worth, I find homophobia and misogyny abhorrent, but that doesn’t mean that, within the bounds of traditional Christianity, they are immoral. I can disagree with them while recognizing that they are moral claims.

I do not see my morality as absolute. As a perpetual seeker of the best rules and laws to live by, I am always open to new and better ways. 

Most moral tenets are subjective, not objective. 

The religious homophobia and misogyny is demonstrably going against the Golden Rule that religions say they go by. That makes their ways immoral.

Christians and you here, disagree but cannot do apologetics to justify their position.
