Started to become an interesting read these last several posts.
I disagree with Oxy insofar that there are gay/tranny Muslims. Not obeying one tenet of Islam doesn't disqualify you. It'd be like saying that any woman who is even remotely modernized cannot be Muslim because the Quran pretty much states that women fall somewhere between cockroaches and dog shit in the pecking order.
It's the same way with Christianity. How many self-proclaimed Christians will have a Whopper with cheese this coming Friday? That's a hell-worthy trespass. Lord known I've been guilty of fornication...let's just modestly say a few times.
Very modestly.
However, there is surely a whole lot of "acceptance" for alternative lifestyles in America, mainly because not appeasing that crowd at every turn will get you a label faster than you can say "snap decision". I don't think there's any phobia or intolerance associated with not greasing every LGBTQIAROFLWTFBBQLMAO squeak with all the grease you can find.
It's the same reason why Trump losing the election suddenly caused all the rioting to go away. It's not because Biden is healing the country. It's because the media and Democrats gave power to America's lowest common denominator, and the mob used that power to influence. Conservatives don't see the virtue in throwing tantrums when they don't get their way - at least not to that extent.
