Or so says this British Imam.

Notice that he says that it is an Islamic punishment.

Again, he is an Imam, not some dude on the street. A religious preacher.

Ok.

The Imam is a religious authority whose words are taken as direct examples of the Will Of God. He holds an audience of many thousands of people and his views are mainstream.

The horrible quote you dragged out of the nether regions of the internet are from a Police Authority who has zero religious authority and who nobody thinks is speaking with the authority of god.

God is the essential difference. Another is that Islam is an organized religion and this police Chief is a lone quack.

Lastly, GAYS ACTUALLY GET KILLED IN THE MUSLIM WORLD. It isn't a hypothetical. The L.A. Police Dept (though I'm sure like all pigs they are horribly corrupt) don't have as policy killing drug users.

Lastly, one was said 16 years ago, and the other this week.

Hows that?

While his views are pretty predominate in the muslim world there is an even more prevelant one:

"Women are for babies, men are for fun". I have heard this from plenty of Arab and Muslim men and there are no shortage of gay men to be found in the muslim world, the difference is they have to hide it. My father served with the UN in Egypt, Israel, Syria and Cypress. One night he and the guys went out to what they were told was a strip joint in Damascus, it turns out that the stripping involved a woman and a donkey lowered from the ceiling.

The point to all this ranting???? We (gays) were here before Mohammed and his tales, and before Jesus and his tales and we survived the Nazi's (there are currently 6 known homosexual victims of the holocaust alive in Europe today) and we will be here long after all religions disappear into the dustbin of history.

So let this raving lunatic say whatever he wants because it doesn't change anything.

No matter what they say and what they do people will defend them.

So, what he said is A-OK, because Gays can be attacked anywhere??? Would you teach your children ethics like this?

Lets take one example and see if you would have acted differently in this situation.

1) A Nazi in Germany says Muslims can be killed and god demands it.

2) Would you You point out that Muslims can be attacked in parts of France and declare that I'm on a high horse for feelings of concern about the Muslims? Would you point out that Muslims are just "trendy"?

So, an Imam says "Killing gays in ok".

I post about it.

You tell me to get off my high horse and declare gays "trendy" and apparently not worth my worry.

Back to you.

The really amazing and disgusting thing is that I post about this dude saying Killing Gays is OK and yata attacks me... I just cannot get my head around that kind of disregard for the safety and life of others.

He makes no statement about how it is a horrible thing to say, or that, I dunno, gays ought not be killed. He just attacks me.. And calls them "trendy" as if to dismiss their validity as humans.

I'm to be attacked for feeling ill at the suggestion that gays can be killed.

No not at all, say all you want, but don't expect my country to change its constitution to serve a book you believe to be special, equality for all. Freedom to say whatever you want no matter how ignorant or hateful it may or may not be.

These come close enough and I like them:

"Many of those people involved with Adolf Hitler were Satanists, many of them were homosexuals--the two things seem to go together." Pat Robertson, "The 700 Club," January 21, 1993

"[Homosexuals] want to come into churches and disrupt church services and throw blood all around and try to give people AIDS and spit in the face of ministers." Pat Robertson, "The 700 Club," January 18, 1995

So as a Christian, and you did grow up in a Judeo-Christian culture, how do you feel about these statements? Keep in mind that Robertson had an audience of 863,000 when he said these things. Clearly gays want to throw around AIDS-tainted blood and infect other people, especially ministers.
