    The Abrahamic religions are based in genocide and hate, it’s woven into the narrative of the books themselves. That’s why it was “righteous” in Yahweh’s eyes to bash the heads of infants against rocks and wipe out entire tribes, to take their children daughters as wives etc.

    Even Jesus with his supposed reforms was still anti-lgbt, he never said that stuff was ok, only that you could get forgiven of your sinful nature (i.e. being gay/trans) and that once you believe in his teachings you won’t have those “sinful” desires to break god’s laws anymore. So, at best, he preached conversion therapy.

    Anti-lgbt hate is always going to rear its head out of the Abrahamic religions unfortunately, even if good people who practice the religion ignore the gross parts, those gross parts will never go away.
