Both Catholic and Protestan christian faiths consider that stealing another person's properties is a sin, an inadequate behaviour for which belivers need to ask for forgiveness to God.
In this line, people who frequently attend the religious services connected to the abovementioned faiths, will more likely implement the ideas of the religion in their life, their choices and their opinions than others. Therefore, it is quite probable that they will not support selling or buying stolen goods.
Well people are starting to judge people who are apart of the LGTBQ + community present time and it didn't really matter back then. So I'm pretty sure it was best back then since people didn't really start to notice it. It was better off in the past it didn't really take any notice nor did the people start hating it. Other things made a big impact in history which caused people to not notice this community. Nowadays its kind of accepting but not as peaceful as before.
