    Yeah. It absolutely does.

    My siblings raise their kids with religion as an important core tenant. The kids refer to all non-straight folks as “gross”, and “wrong”, and make horrible comments about them. They are also not allowed to talk about different orientations.

    The “othering” of folks who live differently from what they believe encourages bullying and hatred. It makes them believe their lifestyle is morally right and good compared to these other sick heathens whose sin is living truthfully to themselves.

    It’s religion.
