Today's Islam: Startling High Rate of Homosexuality

 
 
Reply Fri 25 Aug, 2006 11:59 pm
Suprising high rate of cultural man/boy sex and homosexuality seem to flout the Holy Koran....

Whether it's opium production, heroin distribution, gay sex, or terrorism....cultural mores in many Islamic countries not only contradict the Koran but flout it.

Is today's Islam the greatest example of historical hypocrisy or has a new, more violent interpretation emerged more reminiscent of Sodom and Gommorah than Mecca??

So, how do blind men fall in love, if sight is a necessity?

The verb "to futter" which means what one does to a catamite stems from the Arabic for wide-necked amphora due to a marked similarity between that and a part of the anatomy of the catamite.

One could hardly expect such a literary connection to be made in a society which banned the use of catamites.

A scene which surprised many young English servicemen in the middle-east was the common one of men holding hands when out walking the streets. It was only in built up areas though. The countryside in most countries hasn't changed all that much.

Good point.

And does it really matter if there are a lot of gays?

It may well have nothing to do with that and be simply a matter of scientific observation without a trace of any suggestion of disapproval or approval.

Only a biased observer could possibly think otherwise.

Are you sure about that? Your interpretation is the only possible correct one?

Historically, in areas where same-sex relationships were embedded in the culture, such as Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, parts of Melanesia, Renaissance Italy, and pre-modern Japan, homosexual relationships were engaged in by a majority of the male population.

What constitues "astonishingly high rates" I wonder?
