I applaud your drive to understand and your curiosity. I am in no way offended. I think you ask interesting questions and appreciate your desire to seek peace with bigots.
I think some people are exclusively homosexual, some are exclusively heterosexual, and there is a wide swath of degree between the two where many people fall. And though you may fall somewhere in the middle, I lean far toward the homosexual side.
And to the extent that you can understand bigotry as founded in science or environment to nature or religion or whatever, that still does not excuse discrimination.
People are people however they turn out and should be treated with dignity and respect no matter what their sexual orientation.
The bigots and haters don't see it that way. They find ways to justify their bigotry and then try to impose their way of thinking on the rest of us through religion, politics, and so forth.
