sprinkle rainbow dust in the air
First of all, don't give me that "in the bible" crap. I'm a religionless atheist and I don't see any thing wrong with gay people. They won't touch you if you don't touch them. They don't sprinkle rainbow dust in the air.
What does it mean?
Thank you.

I think that "Sprinkling rainbow dust in the air' means to create unrealistic dreams and illusions either for yourself or other people.
My interpretation is that the writer is saying that people with a religious belief create fairy stories, illusions, fantasies for themselves. Specifically he implies that it is Christians quoting the Bible who condemn gay people .

I don't think the above emphasize the right thing:
The rainbow (flag) is adopted by the gay people as one of their symbols.

haha interesting but seariously I've never seen a gay in my life (I'm 20) maybe I just didn't notice.
This is actually a excerpt of a post under the topic discussing if it's wrong to be gay, someone said 10% of male in US are gay. I was shocked but again no one can verify his claim.

Yes, I think MH's explanation is exactly what the writer meant. The rainbow is a symbol of gay pride or a way to express that you are "gay-friendly."
I believe the idea of "rainbow dust" is exactly what MH suggstions - they don't go around trying to "convert" people.
