Okay but give me one theocratic Christian country that openly kills people for being gay. We're not going to abolish bigotry in the world without admitting that the Middle East and Islam is especially fucked up when it comes to LGBT rights

Thanks lol, this is the laugh I needed today
That's not what a theocracy is. Plenty of politicians around the world use religion to gain support from the public. Some of the only surviving theocracies exist only in the Middle East.
Religion is a useful tool for Putin, but he isn't subservient to any religious leader.
The current state of India with BJP goverment.
You moved the goal post out of the conversation. Good job on being uselessly correct, dumbass. All religions when in power do fucked up stuff but you're hell bent on ignoring most of them.
Good job missing the forest for the trees.
