Any opinion that differs from yours must automatically be a cover for "fear" and "hatred"? Again, incredible.

There are people who think differently than you do. This is a predominantly left-wing forum and you are not going to encounter many people here who will disagree with you. But that is still no excuse. Open your mind.
If you feel ridiculed that was certainly not my intent. If you have an objection to homosexual marriage that is not homophobia I welcome it. If you are only here to misrepresent my stance on this issue and my behavior on this forum then I can only say I think I have always displayed a willingness to discuss any view (except racism and antisemitism - I've put them all on ignore) and respectfully read any post whether it disagrees with me or not. I have even had my mind changed here. That's a claim that some here can't make.
