And last time I checked, saying "No, I don't think that kind of lifestyle is actually good" isn't celebrating "hate, intolerance, and bigotry" any more than saying "Yes, I think this kind of lifestyle is actually good."
Since when has the WBC ever said something as calm as "No, I don't think that kind of lifestyle is actually good?" No, they're spouting hate speech pure & simple. How can "God hates fags" be anything but hate speech? They're telling a group of people that God hates them and therefore the WBC members hate them as well. They're spreading hate, intolerance, and bigotry.
And frankly, if you don't like gay pride parades, then don't go to them.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
