fun fact, the enlightenment wasn't actually caused by le athiest advocates but because influential Christians argued that there was no point forcing someone to be christian by violence because it wasn't real faith

What’s with all these Christians trying to justify heretical doctrine. Paul specifically said our battle is on our knees against Lucifer who has a grip against the nations of the earth, who deceives many so that they would worship him instead of the HOLY, HOLIER, HOLIEST LIVING GOD!

Will not the Lord all creation do right? Will He not punish those who rebel against Him? For He will and a pit of fire has been prepared for Lucifer and his angels and all those who walk in wickedness for they will be thrown in it. For the wages of sin are heavy on me, for many have turned away from Him, oh precious and Holy God. But forgiveness is their for those who turn from their sin and realize how terrible they have been against the most high, and accept Christ’s atonement for all men.

Augustine is one of the most influential writers in the history of Christianity. He is respected and revered by both Catholics and Protestants, and less so by Orthodox.

That's more than 2 billion people worldwide.

No, Francis said it's no longer a sin. Since sodomy isn't sex for christians it falls within the sphere of masturbation so it's not a sin anymore.
