How about we start calling them out on all the foolish things the Bible forbids, but they ignore and do anyway such as:
Wearing clothing made of blended fabrics - leviticus 19:19
Wearing ripped or torn clothing - leviticus 10:6
Eating shellfish - leviticus 11:10
Eating pork - leviticus 11:4
No short hair cuts, and no shaving beards - leviticus 19:27
No tattoos or piercings - leviticus 19:28
No alcohol in church - leviticus 10:9
No working on the sabbath - leviticus 23:3
No divorce - mark 10:9
No wearing jewelry - timothy 2:9
No lying - leviticus 19:11
Don't mistreat foreigners - leviticus 19:33-34
Buying or selling land - leviticus 25:23
I could honestly do this all day as there are so very many things to write here, but I feel this is sufficient to demonstrate my point.
Don't let these people use their faith as justification to be terrible humans until they follow every word "written" by their infallible god in their hypocritical self contradictory book that none of them have actually read.
That would take progressives to actually go on the offensive for once in their lives. It ain't happening. We both know that.
Conservatives lead an endless charge to alway be on the attack. Always lash out at the media, lash out against Democrats, lash out at the big bad gob'ment.
Democrats aren't willing to defend themselves if their own lives depended on it. And these days, that isn't fiction anymore.
Evangelicals aren't bound by the laws of the old testament, so most of your list has no bearing on them.
They aren't bound by the New Testament either, with all that ridiculous socialism from that Jewish hippie
They're not, but a lot of their positions are justified by other things that sit right next to what Hazdaz listed.

To be fair, some of those restrictions were lifted in the new testament.
"It is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person." -Matthew 15:11
They don't have any problem pulling from the Old Testament whenever it suits their bigotry.
Ok, but should we still banish people from society if they have sex during a menstrual cycle as leviticus 20:18 commands?
