“Religion is going to be the final holdout and most stubborn refuge for homophobia.”

This false premise of christians being homophobia (dislike of or prejudice against homosexual people) is a lie...

As a christian, Christ commands me to love all people. I don't have to condone their lifestyle...

If I dislike drunks behavior, does that make me a drunkphobia ?

“Phobia” is a highly misused word, saying that someone has a phobia implies that a person has developed a strong fear that they have little control over, often due to trauma. So, essentially, the political activists picked a word for people who disagree with them that doesn’t really describe what they want it to describe, because they are saying that people who disagree with them can’t really help disagreeing with them. I don’t think they are trying to convey that message, but rather trying to say that a person who has a phobia supposedly can help it and is being a jerk. Phobia is the wrong word for them to use.
