House bill: Nondescrimination in the workplace

So, why do so many Republican lawmakers have the mistaken assumption that homosexuality and faith in God are mutually exclusive? They are not mutually exclusive. If I were a gay person in your workplace, and you had a bible in your cube, I would not feel myself repressed or discriminated against. That would be ludicrous. It would be ludicrous because God loves everybody, even gay people. Don't Republicans know that?
