Just curious, why is this group called "Guilty Pleasures"?
You're absolutely correct, Robin. When you look at context there is really no case for an anti-gay Christianity, unless you are the kind of Biblical literalist who follows every regulation in Leviticus. (I have never met a Christian who does, although I've met many Christians who justify homophobia with Mosaic laws.)
Quite a lot of Christians and even whole denominations realize this. I even know gay Catholics. It's probably unfair to tar all 2 billion Christians with the same brush.
On the other hand, a lot of people do use Christianity as an excuse for homophobia, and Christianity legitimizes and reinforces homophobia for many adherents.
