“Free will is essential to our humanity and essential to our being created in the image of God,” Kolodny said. She charged that denying free choice in sex preference was “perpetuating the hetero-patriarchy,” helping the “radical right,” ignoring bisexuality, and making it easier for “hate” to continue.

Libertarian free will used to justify autonomous human behavior. The Creator of the universe finds their behavior to be an abomination. Do they care? No. They create an idol in their own image instead of submitting to the revelation of God.

There is no doubt that the free will argument can be misused, even abused.

Especially by sinful, unsaved humans.

I think the word you're looking for is libertine, not libertarian. While some libertarians are libertine, and some libertines are libertarians, libertarians are not necessarily libertine or condone immoral behavior. I know what you're trying to say, though, and agree with you. These people are disgusting.
