It disgusts me when they misuse the bible for such a thing as this ... if they truly believed the bible they would remember the only 2 things we are asked to do in the New Testament ... love God and love others. So much anger and hate ... it kills me ... I had to learn and accept myself so I could remember what it was like when i was not loved and to love those around me truly as God loves them. I rather serve and love the lgbtq community, then shun them. I serve God, if He loves them, then I love them, whether that is with emotions, or by physical support such as clothes food or service needs.

The entire history of organized Christianity has been using excerpts from the bible to justify a given behavior, from colonization and the displacement of natives, to wars, to slavery. Millions of people at the time found a way to justify their behavior by pointing to their holy books and claiming a divine mandate. This kind of mental gymnastic is nothing new

I agree with you, and when I tell that to other christians I am known as the "fake one" all I do is shrug and move on, just like Paul did in Acts.

It was more than those 2.
