Don't equate your limited geographical experience to a far reaching universal trend. Could be a vocal minority, could be just your region, could be recency bias.
I literally said in my original comment that "Maybe it's just Texas." Which acknowledged my limited geographical experience. I was literally making a comment on my own personal experience, not a universal truth. Please read.
We have read what you had to say. The problem is that you're making sweeping generalizations based off of personal experience and leaning heavily into some confirmation bias to try and prove your point. Even in saying that it is just Texas, you're basing it off of faulty logic. You are judging the actions of a group at large by the experiences that you have had with a minority. That is, unless you want to claim that you've met the majority of Christians in Texas and they were all actively showing unprovoked homophobia, which isn't a claim you can reasonably make.
