I don’t want to be too mean here, but this comes off as idiotic nonsense. Well-intentioned bullshit is still bullshit. I think most religions were initially well-intentioned but because they added a layer of supernatural bullshit to it people decided to weaponize it and justify basically anything horrible.
When you base your belief on bullshit, you have the ability to justify anything, because nonsense can mean whatever you want it to mean.
Obviously not all religious people are homophobes or racists or bigots but it does seem like a lot of demagogues have an easy time using religion to justify homophobia or racism or bigotry.
