Mostly its used as Do what I want, God totally thinks the same way I do.

Actual Christian values involve not judging people and helping those you can.

I can believe it. It's a hard standard to follow 24x7, which is why Jesus had to die on the cross for us.

A Christian life can be summed up with two commands. Love God. Love others.

Sometimes I fail at doing both. I'm sorry.

The religious right doesn't hate Muslims or gay people. Idk what tax cuts or guns have to do with Christianity. Continue strawmaning.

Adherence to the Bible and the teachings of Jesus.

Since those two things have a bunch of vague, archaic, and metaphorical content, leaders of the church can basically justify any belief with Biblical support. So there's really not much to it if it's organized religion.

If it's a personal belief, then it will also vary because the religious texts and teachings can be interpreted in innumerable ways by individual people.

Link to a prominent Republican saying the words, "I hate gay people" or "I hate Muslims."

I'll conveniently allow you to find one of either of those examples.

It's called coded language, dog-whistle politics, etc... You can't be this oblivious. Most prominent politician are smart enough to not to literally use language like "I hate gay people", that's why they're prominent politicians. They use subtle homophobia like "family values"

And if I actually cared I could find plenty of examples of republicans being blatantly homophobic or racist. It wouldn't be that hard, but honestly, what would be the point.

When Reagan used the term "welfare queens", he wasn't referring to actual queens. His voters knew what he was talking about, black people knew who he was talking about. But there are people out there such as yourself who will deny his comments were racist because he literally didn't say "Black people are mooching the system while hard working whites slave to death". This is why it would be pointless for me to the post the countless examples of Republicans being homophobic or racist, you'd just find some way to spin them.

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.

Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.

Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Most do not hate gay people. I'm an atheist, but in my experience, most Christians have the attitude that they're going to treat everyone (including gay people) with love and kindness because it's not their place to judge anyone, only God can do that.

Pretty much this. They don't hate gay people but think you're wrong for being gay and must be enlightened. Not much better :/
