In Yemen, Iran, Mauritania, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan, Somalia, Sudan, and the United Arab Emirates, gay Muslim men can be stoned to death. Why? Sharia law dictates this.

Imagine how leftist trash would react if it were Christians doing this kind of thing?

Imagine . . . .

The relationship between U.S. conservatives and African religious leaders is inhibiting the right of LGBT people to live freely and without persecution both in the United States and Africa. In Africa, people’s lives are threatened not only by vigilantism but by government action. If we agree that African churches should be allowed to map their own agenda in the global church, then the conservatives should let go of Africa. Unfortunately, they will not, at least not without a fight.

Your ignorance of reality is pitiful.

The Quran contains at least 109 verses that speak of war with nonbelievers, usually on the basis of their status as non-Muslims. Some are quite graphic, with commands to chop off heads and fingers and kill infidels wherever they may be hiding. Muslims who do not join the fight are called 'hypocrites' and warned that Allah will send them to Hell if they do not join the slaughter.

Unlike nearly all of the Old Testament verses of violence, most verses of violence in the Quran are open-ended, meaning that they are not necessarily restrained by historical context contained in the surrounding text (although many Muslims choose to think of them that way). They are part of the eternal, unchanging word of Allah, and just as relevant or subject to interpretation as anything else in the Quran.

The context of violent passages is more ambiguous than might be expected of a perfect book from a loving God. Most contemporary Muslims exercise a personal choice to interpret their holy book's call to arms according to their own moral preconceptions about justifiable violence. Islam's apologists cater to these preferences with tenuous arguments that gloss over historical fact and generally don't stand up to scrutiny. Still, it is important to note that the problem is not bad people, but bad ideology...

Most Christian denominations take the position that homosexuality is immoral, so there is only slim separation between Christianity and Islam on this issue. They are both equally evil when it comes to the persecution of human frailties. Why you would take such glee in this topic is beyond my understanding. it seems a pretty disgusting aspect of your personality.

"slim separation"? Seriously?

I, for one, think it's a gaping chasm between: "We believe you commit immoral/sinful acts" and "Let's throw these two off a roof!"

I guess, as with many things, it's a matter of prospective.

Non-equivalence, from the start, but it does kind of show a bit of what's on offer.

The Catholic Church has entered the 20th Century while the murdering scumbag Muslims are still lost in the 8th.

Well played, indeed.

Tell that to the Africans who are dying of AIDS over the bullshit the vatican has spent the last seventeen years spouting about condoms.

Africans are dying of AIDS because of Catholics shunning condoms?

Really?

To what insane depths will you not howl...

What percentage of Africa is practicing Catholic, and what percentage of good, practicing Catholics in Africa engage in sex with multiple partners...

The current Aids epidemic in Africa has far more to do with popular African myths like, raping virgins will cure you of AIDs rather than the good practicing Catholics in your deranged howler imagination

It doesn't matter what you believe, Michael, if you are wrong, and you are absolutely wrong in this case. Charismatic Christian denominations have been very active in promoting governmental and civic action against homosexuals in Africa while the trend has been quite the opposite in Asian countries. I gave you the sources to read but apparently you wish to lie down with ignorant dogs and pontificate against the information I provided. In the past thirty to fifty years the Christian movement against gays in Africa has grown considerably. Don't blame me for your continuing ignorance. Lay the blame on your partner in ignorance, Bosco.
