Believing that equal rights for gays and lesbians is "the fancy of society's every whim" is also hateful and bigoted.
Geez... is there any opinion, other than 100% acceptance, about gays and lesbians that ISN'T hateful and bigoted, well, at least according to the likes of you?

Its not really acceptance that is the issue, it is lack of rejection. Rights that heterosexual married couples take for granted are routinely denied gays in relationships of equal commitment.
For instance, when my wife had our son - I didn't have to file any sort of special paperwork with the state to become the full legal parent of my son - it is presumed I am parent because of our marriage. If she dies and I survive - I automatically become sole custodian - in many families with gay parents - the child will be given to the deceased relatives. What remains of the family is torn apart.
How you can see that as equal treatment is beyond me.

Because I think I'm no less of a Christian ... if I still enjoy Ozzy, Metallica, Alice in Chains, Pantera, White/Rob Zombie, AC/DC, etc.
Agreed 100%. I consider myself a Christian and enjoy a vast array of rock and metal bands.
However, there are some very prominent groups that have varying degrees of Christian influences and are pretty awesome: Killswitch Engage, August Burns Red, anberlin, Skillet, Flyleaf, Chevelle to name a few.
Also, did you know that Dave Mustain of Megadeth is a born again Christian and certified badass?
