Is it not safe to say that the majority of Christians are anti-homosexuality? Even the ones who aren't actively homophobic (IYSWIM)? And anti-abortion? Given the number of Catholics, I assume that the anti-abortion portion is in the majority.
Well.. no it's not. Not all Catholics are anti-abortion, the anti-abortion/not bothered ratio is directly related to which country the Catholics are in. This is also the case for homophobia. The general views of a society or culture always hold sway, strongly influence, any views of a religion inside that society. Also, come on people, it's the views of the overwhelming number of the society and culture that actually fucking matter. To overfocus on the batshit insaneness of a small theological minority like some of you here are is counter productive.
