The U.C.Church is not homophobic. It is a church that welcomes gays and supports same-sex marriages as stated here:

Excerpt:
ATLANTA, July 4 2005 - The United Church of Christ became the first mainline Christian denomination to support same-sex marriage officially when its general synod passed a resolution on Monday affirming "equal marriage rights for couples regardless of gender."...

Senator McCain, in alliance with the anti-gay Family Research Council, petitioned to have same-sex civil unions banned in his home state of Arizona in 2005. See "the Protection of Marriage Act". In 2006 the bill he supported that would have banned same-sex marriage in his home state of Arizona failed to be passed fortunately.
Feb. 27, 2008 McCain embraced an endorsement from Anti-Catholic, Anti-Gay, Anti-Muslim Televangelist John Hagee. He has not and will not denounce this man's views.

If you want to support a Republican and spread their propaganda so be it, but you won't be viewed as Democrat from this point onward.
