It's no surprise that LGBTQ youth are more likely to turn to drugs and violence when they are pushed out of their homes and communities by intolerant Christians.

I've done work with ministries in the Bay Area and most of those youth are seeking solace from bigots back home.

You pick and choose from your book of iron-age myths. It's a shame you pick the parts of bigotry and intolerance. There's a lot of hurting young people who could use the empathy The Bible also teaches. 

So who is right? Your ancient book, or the LGBTQ people sitting right in front of us begging to be heard?

I don't think you realize the utter pain and torture your ideas cause, and for what? So you can thump your bible?

You're free to have whatever ideas you want. If you think homosexuality is a sin then by all means live that way. But I draw the line when you think that freedom and justice means telling people who to love and what they can or cannot do in the bedroom. The bigotry and intolerance is vivid.
