Holy stinking dogcrap no!
Just this past week a grandfather killed his daughter and six kids because he believed in a heaven where they would all be better off.
This past month ISIS posted videos of the brutal execution of non-muslims because they thought it was what "god" wanted them to do and that they would be rewarded for it.
Coming out as Gay today in many places of the US and Russia will get you attacked and bullied. In parts of Africa it will get you killed because of religion.
Religion is not just a harmless fairytale that people take to heart, it is a dangerous delusion.
Just because people say something doesn't mean it is true, the grandfather more than likely had ulterior to his motives just like ISIS. Religion is only their scapegoat.
Can't speak for the homosexuality part though, as I have no knowledge of it.
