Gay and Muslim?
March 22, 2011 at 5:44 am

How can they stay committed to their faith which clearly sees homosexuality as a sin and sometimes punishable by death? If you believe the quran to be the word of god, and the word of god says homosexuality is wrong, how can you be a gay Muslim? I hate this cherry picking of ideals and rules to follow so many religious people choose to do. At least the fundamentalist nut jobs know what they believe in.

Obviously I have no issue with homosexuality at all, it's the ridiculousness of being a gay Muslim I'm confused about as the two are clearly not compatible. Being gay isn't a choice, being a cherry picking Muslim is.
