Muslim Imam calls for Homosexual death 3 weeks before pulse nigh club shooting

[Regina]

-as if bishops and popes had never called for the death of this or that....and as though it would be difficult to find criticism of that...here on atheist forums.

Get ahold of yourself.

Now, for the rest of us, with love in our hearts, shall we join hands and sing the chorus of "Fuck The Motherfucking Pope", by brother Minchin?

(feel better now Drich?)

Has this happened in the last 100 years? 200? So when your ready to compare apples to apples feel free to rejoin the conversation.

It's happened in the last month following Orlando. There were far-right Christians coming out the woodwoork all over the place to praise the attack. The day after Orlando, a white boy (presumably a Christian) was caught heading towards L.A Gay Pride with explosives and guns planning to blow it up.

Homosexuality has only become legalised in most Western countries within the last 60 years too. This has not happened because of The West's benign Christian religion, it's happened through secularism at the expense of Christian extremism (which is as barbaric, violent and abusive as Islamic fundamentalism). It's not that there are no longer Priests, Bishops and even candidates for The Papacy that believe homosexuality should be punishable by death, it's that they're not allowed to air those views in the 21st Century without an educated, rational, secular society charging them with hate speech. When the Muslim world eventually wakes up and does the same to their Imams and Islamic "scholars", their situation with human rights is going to improve too.
