Is my Religion Homophobic? In my Religion, we hate homosexuality and love homosexuals.

If the old definition is anti-religious, then for the sake of peace and safety it should be rewritten.
I suggest following politically correct definition:

Homophobia - hatred against homosexuals.

People who have children understand that we love our children even if we don't like or agree with what they are doing.


This song below "Sandra: Maria Magdalena" teaches how to hate the sin (Lust) but love sinner:


"A recent Otago University study has found that homosexual or bisexual individuals are more likely to have undergone a variety of traumas in childhood, including sexual assault, rape, violence, and witnessing violence in the home." (2010)

Study: Homosexuality Linked with Childhood Trauma

It is interesting. So, in a better world there would be less homosexuality, I guess. Tough times, tough sexuality.

Technically, homophobia is a fear of homosexuality. Whereas your religion, as I understand it, is more an expression of sexual bigotry: that is the irrational loathing of homosexuality. Either way, though, it's certainly not something to be proud of. Especially when it rises to the level of actual hatred.

Lightly seared on the reality grill.
Then my Religion is scientifically disproven. Science can not disprove any of religions. Thus, we are not homophobic!!!!

You really don't get logic, do you? Your religion is homophobic but that can't scientifically disprove it. Science can disprove some religions (at least to the extent it can disprove anything - by providing evidence that contradicts it) - literal, seven day, six thousand years ago creationism, for example.

It is the anti-Christian definition. The right definition: homophobia is sexually motivated hatred against people.

No, you lack an ability here to reason logically. That is all. It can happen quite often with personal issues.

Wrong. I have proven the Riemann Hypothesis!!!

Yes your religion is homophobic and if you agree with this position and act in accordance to it you are homophobic yourself.

Wrong.

Dogma can be, and often is, homophobic. It is not a valid excuse.

It is not homophobic.

Why did you ask when you clearly have no intention of considering the validity of any of our answers?

Nope, the linguistic root of "homophobia" is fear of homosexuality. The definition of homosexality is the following according to te Oxford dictionnary.

ho·mo·pho·bi·a
/ˌhōməˈfōbēə/

noun
  1. dislike of or prejudice against gay people.

Fear is only one form of dislike and prejudiciable attitute and does not encompass the full range of homophobia.

It is a rhetorical question. I can not destroy my own Religion here. I love my Religion, and I hate homophobia.
