He was also a snob, a bigot and a racist, who rarely washed and was considered dirty by even the low standards of those days, and believed that he had a right to power. So maybe with all that in common, they are willing to overlook the fact that he was gay.
He was also a practicing Witch, but was terrified of other witches hence the translation of Exodus 22:18 in KJV being reinterpreted as
Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.
rather than the original translation
Do not suffer a loose tongued woman to remain among you
The original word in Hebrew is mekhasheph meaning one who reveals private things
mek means "One who does" or "of" is
kashaph ( F ) means an abuser or whisperer
So together a mekhasheph is a gossip a far cry from "A Witch"

Or any kind of common sense.
cherry picked by ass kissers and yet Christian believe its the gold standard
