The reason why is because Webster's definition of "homophobic", the word you have said I am not defining properly, included "discrimination against" while the definition of "homophobe" only said "treat badly".
This is called intellectual dishonesty.
2) I will continue to interpret and teach "discrimination against" as meaning "discrimination against", but I appreciate your permission.
3) No, beliefs is too broad of a categorization. If you think someone cannot be President because they are gay or Muslim, that certainly suggests you hold prejudicial views. However, trying to deny gay marriage is discrimination and I am suggesting that.
1) We are talking about the person (voter); am I correct. What is it call if you leave out the term irrational in your definition? "Paraphrasing"
2) See above, I do hope you teach the true meaning to our children. BTW, do you teach at a public school?
3) The subject at hand is not discriminating against gay marriage; it is voting for president (Is that part of that dishonesty you mentioned earlier). I have not seen anyone suggest that a gay or muslim cannot be President; I have seen folks say they would not vote for them.
But enough, I will be accused of attacking the messenger.
