From now on, it's "Love the religious, hate the religion."

Christianity and Islam are toxic. And the rot goes all the way to the top. The very highest leaders demand homophobia of worshippers, and thousands of imams, priests, mullahs, ministers, pastors, and other religious leaders in funny hats go into their pulpits in their mosques, churches, and other places of worship, and preach homophobia to millions of worshippers every week of every year. And then those worshippers go out and spread the rot into society at large.

Is it any wonder that society has been so hostile to the gay community?

So, to the religious people on this board, I understand, there's plenty of chill religious people out there.

But...

I love Christians, but hate Christianity.

I love Muslims, but hate Islam.
