    I’ll just mention that in the middle east the vast majority of people don’t support LGBT rights. Bringing up the separation of church and state makes no sense in this context.

      They don’t support those rights cause they have been brainwashed by their religion. Maybe if religion was removed from government, that wouldn’t be the case, at least not to this extent.
