"Imagine a religious leader who, during the weekly religious service, explains to the flock that members of the LGBT+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender, plus other types of sexual orientation or gender identity) community are lesser beings, are sick people who need to be cured, or need to be punished, or some such verbal attack. Or, more subtly, imagine a religious believer publicly questioning equal rights for LGBT people in certain areas of public or private life, like equal marriage rights or equal access to certain service or jobs"-- Provided by publisher.
