To hell with homophobes

Every week there is another story about homophobic religious fanatics. They try to justify their prejudice on the basis that it's their religious duty to be bigoted turds.

A religious commentator called "Tony Campolo" often said "the trouble with fundamentalists: they don't believe the bible". Here's an example:
"Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God." (Bible: 1 Cor 6:9-10

How many ministers does this short passage exclude? But we hear no campaigns over greedy priests and inebriated vicars. And that's just one proof that the campaigners against gay ministers are just prejudiced homophobes trying to hide behind religious justification.
