Religion

(7,886 posts)and while the people are changing views, the religions are not. Religions are monolithic, the RCC has a central leadership that controls it's holdings across the globe, the southern baptists are similar, but mostly in America. They literally are monolithic organizations.
Your problem seems to be confusing religion with the religious. People are changing, but the religion is not. The religions still pull from the same old book that has the same old hatred, and until the hateful parts are actually removed, then the religions are still based in hate.
You seem to want to invalidate the truth in the OP because less than 5% of religions in the US don't have monstrous foundations for their belief (And yes, Buddhism and Hindu, while aren't specifically hateful toward homosexuality, though they have it banned in their home countries, they do have very problematic issues in other areas, like treatment of women).
Perhaps you should think about how people aren't their religion, and read the OP again.
