    It’s not the magic book. It’s that they’re so horny for cock they can’t think, and if they allowed themselves to think it’s acceptable for a second they’d drown themselves in dick.

      I’m sorry, I do not like this very common claim that homophobic people are gay. That basically suggests that gay people are responsible for homophobia. No. Homophobic people are bigots. Some might be gay, some might not be gay, but all of them are bigots. That’s the thing that unites them.

      Could you imagine if people argued that all the white people who are racist against black people are actually black people who can pass for white?

        They’re definitely bigots, and not all of that is caused by being gay.

        However, the number of anti-gay people who are caught doing gay things is pretty damn high, and externalizing personal shame as hatred is a common pathway to it. Also, they’re all so horny they can’t see two people holding hands and not make it a sex thing.

        My main point was that it doesn’t matter what the Bible says because they don’t read it, and ignore inconvenient parts all the time.
