All I know is I have only one son. Whether he’s gay or not I’m still going to love him. Whether he obeys me or not I’m still gonna wish him the best. No way would I ever want to see him tortured and punished for the rest of his life. I’ve sat through church sermons where they scared the hell out of you with made up bullshit stories about hell and god that they have no way of proving. My son won’t go through that

This is my opinion.
Religions are a business. The sole purpose of religions is to control large groups of people. The less educated and knowledgeable they are the easier the task. They understand that anger is fueled by fear, anxiety, and/or frustration and they, like magicians are able to redirect that anger away from their real purpose, that being greed. Greed for power, wealth, and control for which they barter with government and big business for status and endorsement of their legitimacy. That is why hate crimes in the name of their god/s are so prevalent in our society.
I think anyone with some common sense and a little logic can see the contradictions in their messaging. It's too bad that common sense has little value these days.

Any religion that does that is one based on hate

Remember they always state that their god(s) can not make mistakes or produce junk!!!

That it is always god(s) Will!!!

Hence they do not even follow their own demented delusional beliefs, yet make it all up to suit their personal agendas!!!

Just like dick Cheney (gay hater) and his daughter, what a full blown overt hypocrite!,!

One thing not touched on by others, yet, is that too many, especially evangelicals, think sexual orientation is a choice. That thought gives their god and them an out. They blame their child.

That does deserve some thought. We all know that god cannot goof and a great many of us have seen goofs in nature. Maybe a person with an extra finger or toe, etc. This is why it is hard for others to grasp and they say that gay people simply "want to be gay." What is that supposed to mean? Churches and bibles know little about genes and chromosomes.

Religion works by setting up impossibly high standards, so that people are bound to fail, and will then have to turn to it for forgiveness, comfort, help etc. then put money in the tin and lick the priests boots. It therefore makes every normal human thing a sin.

But then to add to that, having made everyone see themselves as failing, for some it is not enough that they are forgiven. Some have fragile egos, need to feel superior to others and to blame others for their failings, therefore they have a need to find someone to hate, and it is often hard to justify hate, especially when your religion demands total charity, (along with total everything else). Therefore find reasons within your religion to justify declaring some people outside of your religions normal scope of forgiveness, and you can justify hate. Because using religion you can justify anything without having to offer evidence or argument, you just say. "Its my religion."

It all goes full circle and ends as the prefect con.

You can lead a theist to reason, but you can't make him/her think.

It's all make-believe. Don't fall for it.

Religion ... pure and faultless is this: to help widows and orphans in need and avoiding worldly corruption. James 1:27

What type or definition of religion are you referring to that seems to have nothing to do with helping widows and orphans while avoiding worldly corruption?

For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others—and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.” Matthew 19:12

I certainly would have to say it's all God's fault. They in turn would blame Satan. They are serious, I'm not

I have never seen any evidence for the existence of ANY god and reject the claim that a god exists and religions are nothing more than cults.
