Well - I don't think any of us here is anti-muslim. Me personally - I love muslim culture. We are just saying that islam is definnitely good religion concerning gay topic. U say - the same about catholicism and ortodox - right - I agree - but at least in Greece and in Poland and in most of the other cristian countries there is no any law that tells me what should I do in my bed (and with whom should I do it). We all know that in muslim countries being gay is much more difficult then in Europe or the States. My friends from Egypt and Gulf are offen affrain even to put pictures of themselves into the gay profile, in order not to be recognised there in their anti-gay countries…. Doesn't seem nice for me...

hey i'm from egypt , and after i read the main message of that forum , i ask him , where you hear that story ? indeed , no laws against Gays now in Egypt , it's impossible to find a gay man jailed for gay sex ! here in Egypt ( for more information about that point see www.wikipeida.org & and search for gays laws around the world ) anyway , that's not mean we have gay rights , but we are the must fighting Islamic/Arabic country for that point . but we still the first Arabic ( second Islamic after Turkey ) that we haven't a laws against gays , but we still not that free , still many gays here want to move to gay rights countries
THANKS -

Homophobic countries can and will use any kind of law available to get their way.
A lot of them do have laws on immorality which they use on gays.
I think also in Egypt such laws are used for gays.Also, I'm told that some states within the US still have sodomy laws.
Laws applicable on sodomy / assfucking between straight people as well as gays.
They are almost never used but still in existence and come in handy for police now and then! -
thank you mgr….

thats a great list
its also quite a frightening list -
US Governor of Iraq at the time {with the US State Dept} wrote the Iraq constitution, outlawing m/m sodomy.
I remember watching the BBC news when this happened and C. Rice said the topic was not open for discussion, that the Bush Admin felt it was the best thing for the US and Iraq to include the anti sodomy laws in the Iraq constitution.
