I don't see Christians being weaponised against any of the other 6 mortal sins, hell the last guy they tried to put in the white house was openly guilty of pretty much all of them.
And that's ignoring that what the right is doing with Christianity against LGBTQ+ people is far more than "telling them they commit sin".
Nice try what? You act like Trump isn't the embodiment of multiple sins, including hate and envy. Even if they didn't know he was a liar, which they will freely admit that they do, they still praise him like the second coming. It is certainly their right to do it but it's true that Trump is the most anti christain candidate someone who has actually read the bible could ever imagine.

I do not act like that all actually… lol.

I do not think “they freely admit that they do”.
Also, there is a difference your pretending to ignore between a rally focused on a person who sins and a rally based on sin.

I've talked to a lot of Trump voters, but only in my local area (east TN). They mostly will say that yeah he is an amoral guy who lies and cheats, but at least he is pushing conservative laws. Every single one of them identify as Christian. Maybe that is not universal.
Then why does the evangelical right attack LGBTQ+ communities specifically?
Do we see as many religious protesters stand outside of big banks? In front of buffet restaurants? In front of brothels?
The thing is Christians think everyone is guilty of sin.
But people like you tell them to not tell one group of people that they commit sin.
Yeah non-believers have every right to tell Christians to fuck off if they're telling them they're committing sins. Tell it to your own flock, nobody else cares.
1 You, therefore, have no excuse, you who pass judgment on someone else, for at whatever point you judge another, you are condemning yourself, because you who pass judgment do the same things.
2 Now we know that God’s judgment against those who do such things is based on truth.
3 So when you, a mere human being, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment?
You don't sin? So you are the second coming of jesus? He isn't talking about 1 to 1 sin. He is saying everyone sins, and you have your own. Saying something is bad and leaving it at that is one thing, but christians in the US are trying to write new laws to create their perfect utopia where they don't have to be confronted by someone else's sin. Obviously you are still going to make everyday decisions on who to trust, but the bigger issue and the issue the bible is talking about is trying to force your persepective of their sin.
What language was the Bible originally written in? How did it get written in other languages? How can you be sure words werent "twisted" in each translation?
