I'm not normally one to post, but I saw some things said that were slightly concerning, especially weaponized religion.
I'm an atheist who, out of tradition, practices Christianity (I follow most rules and base teachings, but due to scientific reasons, don't believe in God)
I'm also bisexual.

To malware trojan, who appears to be a heavily religious child. All we ask is that you keep an open mind.
The base of the argument seems to be religion
First, there are way more religions than the three trojan mentioned. Second, God cannot be used as an excuse to opress people.
I agree that too much freedom is harmful. People shouldn't be able to harm one another if they feel like it, that's true. But being lgbtq doesn't harm anyone or anything. What makes it wrong? Because it's "unnatural"? But it occurs in animal nature, frequently. We, as a society, have achieved the level of sophistication that people can concern themselves with trivial things, like sexuality, as opposed to how to survive the night.
Am I evil for eating pork? Am I evil for not wearing a hijab? Religion is nothing more than a way to explain the world around us, just like science. You're free to believe in ancient laws, but why should the rest of society live by rules invented thousands of years ago? Because some higher power will smite you for choosing to fill your desires? If people are forced to be unhappy to please some power--- who's to say your perception of a god isn't evil?
And "times are changing" is definitely a valid argument, because adapting to new conditions is literally how organisms survive. Animals that refuse to leave the oceanside get drowned in the flood. Do not call us immoral or unnatural for being able to adapt to a new society, because in the end, we're the ones safe on a mountain while the rest are swimming in the sea.
