That is what i call it because that''s what it is.  I am in no way shape or form afraid of homosexuals, or homophobic as you call it.  There have been a few studies done that show there is no genetic or biological coding that causes a human being to lean one way or the other.  The best one was a study involving identical twins.  If you don't know, they are identical at a genetic level.   Of all of the twins studied, 95% of the time when one twin identified as either gay or being something other than the sex they were born with, the other did not.  That would heavily imply that homosexuality or the desire to be transgender or whatever else its called nowadays stems from environmental factors, not genetic coding.  As far as seperation of church and state, that was designed to prevent a government religion, IE the church of england.  Not the suppression of religious expression and freedom.
