Not to prolong the debate too far, I'd go as far as to say that the homophobic voice throughout society, including the Church, is already fairly limited.  I realise that you and others want to define homophobia as anything that argues against the normalisation of homosexual practice, but unfortunately the legislation doesn't do that.  It is still perfectly legitimate to express a view on the rights and wrongs of it.  Unless we move into dictatorship, the right to express an opinion will always be sacrosanct here in the UK.  The right to express a evidence-supported one is not only a right, its a scientific requirement.
