Well, it's true that the average 25-year-old does not feel about homosexuality the way his great-grandfather felt at that age. In that sense, there is indeed a "rising tide." But the salient feature of tides is that they go out again. Whatever their appeals to virtue, inevitablist theories of history are always the weakest--the notion that progress is a ratchet effect, moving irreversibly in one direction. On September 10, 2001, for example, not many commentators in North America or Europe paid much attention to the views of Islamic lobby groups. The idea that whether something does or does not cause offence to Muslims would be the early 21st century's principal political dynamic in Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Britain would have seemed absurd to most Europeans a mere five years ago. Things change very suddenly.

I applaud this. There is no more effective way to reach through to the liberal establishment. And I'd ten times rather have gays in public culture than Islamofascists at the helm. The former are mostly a nuisance; the latter, an existential enemy.
This "Islamic homophobia" is just for show. I suggest some you acquire some re-education on their sexual customs.
About two thirds down the page, the author gets into sodomy. Here's a comment by a reader:
Among the Arabs, the Gulf Arabs are the worst of sodomites. They don't only sodomize, they get sodomized also... Not only Arab Muslims are sodomites, but many other Muslims, like in Malaysia and Indonesia are sodomites too. A Moroccan whom I met before told me the story of an Algerian friend of his who was accused falsely (after him) of theft and sent to jail for years because he refused to please the second-Imam in the toilet of a mosque . The Imam followed him to the toilet, touched his genital and asked him to sodomize him. When the guy refused then he accused him of theft and sent him to jail. I have heard of others whose genitals have been touched by other Muslims in mosques during the salat...
One of the reasons I became disgusted about Islam and left the mosque and began to attend Church instead, it was because a Muslim Indonesian man made a homosexual action to me while we were in the mosque. I rebuked him in front of everybody and immediately. Guess what happened the next day? The Imam brought me the police and accused me of breaking to his property, the mosque. He brought me to the police station but when the police didn't find any proves for his accusation, they asked me to sign a paper and promise not to go to his mosque again. Since that day I never went to that mosque. When I started telling the story to other Muslims, they ridiculed and teased me about it. That was the time when God started to open my eyes and to lead me to search for the truth.
Yes. It's ironic that lefties are convinced that Muslims hate us for "good" reasons (like capitalism). They don't realize how much of the hatred is due directly to the image Hollywood creates of America as teeming with immorality and decadence.
Yes. Gays can be annoying with their constant pot-banging for attention, and the way they cross the street with that queenly, super-slow swish so as to hold up traffic for as long as possible (I live in L.A.) But minor annoyances are nothing compared to murderous thugs who want to enslave the world.
I've been told by guys coming back from Afghanistan, Iraq and Kuwait that sodomy is very common in the ME.
Islam prospered during its period of expansion and conquest -- when it had a steady stream of loot and slaves who knew how to run a civilization. When Islams expansion by conquest was halted, Islam went into decline.
It only arose again when a new source of unearned wealth was available to it -- oil. Then fundamentalist Islamic schools (madrassas) could be financed all over the Islamic Third World, yielding the latest crop of Jihadis
The Muslims of Europe are mostly unemployed and survive on welfare or through crime. Islam in Europe will go through its big crisis when those who work decide to stop supporting those who wont
Why would you listen to anything they have to say. They lie as a matter of principle and will tell you what you want to hear. Ask them about taqiyah. Don't waste your time in discussion.
Or something like that. The reasoning is to warped to make sense of.
You do realize, don't you, that darwinists have concocted "scientific" explanations for why homosexuality is actually a beneficial human trait?
That's the beauty of darwinism. It is infinitely malleable in its ability to scientifically explain even the most preposterous and inexplicable things. And it does not confine itself to a consistent set of explanations either. Completely contradictory howlers of explanations are embraced with equal enthusiasm and zeal.
Tides go out. In September, 1940, Fascism was at high tide in the world. Even two years later, that tide had not begun to recede. Within a year it had begun to go out. Two years later, it had gone out. living behind only puddles around the world. Of course, now it was succeeded by another tide of totalitariamism, that of Communism. Events turn things on a dime, and as the song says, " the future's not ours to see. " Progressivism" is a faith and a stupid one, one unable to understand how others can refuse to accept its vision.
The saying over there is "men are for pleasure, women are for children".
When I was young, it was understood that Muslim sexual morality was lower than ours. Libertines were chided for behaving" like Turks. " The sexual revolution, of course, changed all that. Now Muslims seem like Puritans.
I don't know if you want yet another article about BBM, but it's Steyn at the same time.
My experience in the Muslim world indicates that while many Muslims participate in homosexual sodomy and bestiality, they know they're doing wrong, and they range from conflicted to agonized over it -- they're very touchy on the subject.
Because it's so universal -- one NGO doc told me the typical Afghan male has his first sexual experience, with a male relative, by age 12 -- nobody is going to prosecute it unless they do it in some very offensive public manner that requires the authorities to act.
I assume that these are not like Western happy-happy queer gays. They are more like prisoners who self-identify as straight even while they're doing one another.
Anyway, just one more specific sickness in the panoply of pathogens that is Islam.

Yea that's it, lets expel red blooded american's who are Gay and happen to be related to americans who are not gay to appease goat f*cking camel s*cking Arabs.
Rarely see any rump rider honor killings.
Your comments are in the category of "Hammer Meets Nail". Need the graphic.
"And I'd ten times rather have gays in public culture than Islamofascists at the helm. The former are mostly a nuisance; the latter, an existential enemy."
If you do a FR search using the keywords "homosexual agenda", and spend some time reading, you'll realize that the goals of the homosexual activists are way beyond the mere nuisance category. If the Islamic Jihadis are destroyed, we'll still be destroyed by the radical homosexuals and their assistants. It's the enemy within and the enemy without. Of course, the "gay" agenda is fostered and supported by the leftist MSM and feminists and the "sex positive" crowd who want to turn kids into their victims. Are you aware of the small but vocal group of professional intelligentsia who insist that child/adult sex isn't necessarily harmful, but even beneficial?
Come on.
Please note my comment above. The "gay" agenda is not a mere nuisance. Read up and realize what they really want - hatespeech, hatethought, and the control of our children.
