His delivery could have been better, but I'm curious why you all seem to think his message is incorrect.

I'm curious why people seem to think we should craft public policy based on texts such as the Bible while they simultaneously remain immune to critique. If you want to create laws based off of the Bible, if you want to force your personal religious beliefs on the rest of us, then that opens it up to criticism. And in this situation we are still not the bigots, as you are the ones trying to force your beliefs on us, while we merely want you to leave us alone. That makes the religious right the bigots.

But the Republican victim complex is difficult to overcome, so we're probably just wasting our time.
