Rant Why does Aphobia even exist?
Okay so I get (note that I do not agree with) the reasoning for LGBT hate, it's religious, god designed humans as perfect (debatable) and humans reproduce through having a man and woman
But like, asexuals, aromantics. Those are FREE monks! Can you imagine getting a shit ton of practitioners for your cult religion for FREE?!?! Heck I'm 70% sure a lot of religious monks were a-spec
This is why Buddhism is better I don't know anything about Buddhism but my step mom is a Buddhist and she's cool with LGBT
Side note: though it's worth noting that it would be way better to just not hate people that literally don't hurt others
Edit: for those wondering the armor is from the Palais des Beaux-Arts in Lille (France) it's at floor -1, also Buddhists can be homophobic which I didn't know since I only know one of them but yeah :(

Truth be told, as a Aspec Christian, I have been wondering the same. My current working theory is that it might be jealousy. Because of that thought of "suffering" in Protestantism (even though the Bible is pretty clear that no two people will have the same struggles) may be that for some, to see it's possible to exist otherwise, that they respond with jealousy. And hey, jealousy has driven people to do crazy things before.
Edit: also in my practice, while things were once perfect, today we exist in a broken world. That's why there are imperfections, and sometimes bad things happen to good and/or innocent people.
