Ge-Hinom (Gehenna), was the nickname for a garbage dump outside the city. It could be an allusion to hell's unpleasant conditions...but, it may not.
Much of what we visualize of hell does come from Dante's inferno. That's not to say hell doesn't exist, but that many extra-biblical sources refined the concept to what we know today.

A phobia is an irrational fear. Homophobia is, therefore, an irrational fear of homosexuals. If one disagrees with the mainstreaming of some gay lifestyle issues (promiscuity, bathhouse culture, redefinition of marriage), that does not make you irrational or fearful, regardless of trendy opinion. OTOH, those who automatically dismiss rational objections to specific policies as homophobia are doing so to advance an agenda. That would tend to make them homophyles.
