I've always felt that the only legitimate question to ask a potential juror is whether they know or have a relationship with anyone involved in the court case at hand.

What about non-religious people who think sodomy is disgusting? They still get bounced for having an opinion?

Actually, even that is too broad. For a lot of our history, our communities were small enough that virtually everyone knew each other. Juries would often sit on cases where they knew someone involved, if not the principals then the lawyers, etc. For that matter, the judge usually knew the people involved.

My one legitimate question is: Do you have a personal interest or benefit from this trial beyond the interest that all citizens have in a just and orderly society?

That will still get most of the close relatives, etc. out of the jury. But just because you know someone is not reason to be excluded.

Sammy is complaining 'bout nuthin, he could bring in religious liberty cases and throw shade (lol) on Obergefell; but he won't strong-arm Roberts in the same way that Roberts quashed Alito's 4th vote to take Republican Party v Boockvar that would have laid bare the 3 days of 2020 post-election electoral fraud that took place in Hickhoodsylvania.

The legal system is such a clown show.
