 I guess I should assume you misunderstand the quote you provided. "With such a blind and naïve moralising approach, the whole vast storehouse of spiritual culture is devastated and its treasures detonated..."

So you're anti-LGBTQ. You're kinda, sorta referencing the Bible in a simplistic, moralizing way. You're condemning people to hell, as if it's your call. And you're asking me to explain you to you. 🤷‍♂️

For me, the story of Sodom is about inhospitality, not homosexuality.

Ezekiel 16:49-50 - "Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy."

Any doubts are clarified from the New Testament and the example of Jesus, how he walked in this world and treated others. 
 this is my last try:

"Yet you're condemning others to hell with a black-and-white view of complex social and moral issues"

that is a quote OF YOURS.

I ask you again:

what do you find morally and socially complex? 
 
I find the subject of human sexuality nuanced and complex. You find it black-and-white. From what I can tell, that's the disagreement ... 

I wish you well. 
 coward.
