Yes, it is different to some extent, but I still feel it is justified. The way your argument comes across to me is that it's fine for Bush to be accepting of discrimination against homosexuals, because some people have a religious objection to homosexual acts. And I disagree with that. But you said you want to drop it, so let it drop if you wish.religious belief against homosexual acts is very different from a religious belief against homosexuals. Bringing race into this shows that you do not understand this important distinction.
