And in the case of this issue, even Pope Francis has moved from a position of significant opposition to LGBT rights when he was a Cardinal to his famous "who am I to judge?" comment a couple years ago. He hasn't changed church doctrine on the matter yet, but if the leader of the Christian church can suffer a period of reflection, one has to ask why so many Christians are not able to do the same.
Maybe, and I might be going out on a limb here, it never was about religious beliefs in the first place. They're just using Christianity to justify their homophobia. I know, that's crazy, right?
