I used to think exactly like her. I understand where she's coming from. She likely has no conception of her own bigotry. There's quite a bit of cognitive dissonance in the church. I finally left all that behind when I couldn't reconcile the concept of a loving God with homophobia. Some things that helped were being judged by fellow Christians for my own moral choices, watching the movie 'Milk', and having a close friend explain what it was like to be gay and raised in a Christian family.
