Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan called homosexuality a “sexual preference” and said it conflicted with the “culture of Islam,” according to a report last week in the Turkish daily Hürriyet.

Interesting, it conflicts with Christianity as well.

Note, too, he did not say "Religion of Islam", but "culture of Islam".

Sometimes the truth is revealed in little things, and the difference between a "religion" and a "culture" is significant.

He reveals that Islam is not just a religion but an all-encompassing way of life.

Just maybe such semantic subtlties could wake up the Left in this country? (Yeah, right, they'll still be screaming "why?!!" when the rocks start hitting them.)
