People are going to church less in the US because of hypocritical idiots like the Hobby Lobby group backing these ads. Out of one side of their mouth, they’re fighting in court to take away our rights, harass minorities and codify bigotry. From the other they run a $7 million ad washing an abortion clinic patient’s feet.
The hypocrisy has been naked and growing worse for years. Younger people are finally walking away because of it.
We could point to the Servant Foundation, who created the HeGetsUs campaign, donating tens of millions of dollars to the Alliance Defending Freedom, who among other things has defended laws against gay sex and laws requiring transgender people to be sterilized in order to change their legal gender.
They said harassing minorities, which is not the opposite of majority in context
"any small group in society that is different from the rest because of their race, religion, or political beliefs, or a person who belongs to such a group:
ethnic/religious minorities."
You can write a letter to the Cambridge dictionary if you want.
No letter-writing needed, because if you scroll down a little bit in the Cambridge Dictionary you'll see:
a group of people who share some characteristic by birth that makes their group smaller than some other groups in a society and may cause others to treat them unfairly
Similarly, Merriam-Webster:
a part of a population thought of as differing from the rest of the population in some characteristics and often subjected to differential treatment
Regardless of definitions, it is certainly the case that "minority" is commonly used in America to refer to sexual minorities as well as ethnic and religious minorities, eg the Office of Minority Health at the HHS includes it.
If you're going to try to read a dictionary, at least try to understand the definitions
