on the one hand, islam is quite vocal about its opposition to homosexuality (as are the other abrahamics given leviticus, a footnote in the greater sense of "the word") and this should be expected.
on the other hand, selective following of teachings is not uncommon. by strict interpretation the entire banking system and foundation of the global economy (stock market) is sin against god (usery).
it's quite a shame that the better spirit of religious messages is in general drowned out by odeous noise and quite frankly, antiquated barbarism.
there are some very respectable and agreeable messages and values in islam, christianity et al.
those who turn a blind eye to corruption, rape; steal and are not charitable or compassionate and on the other hand condemn that homosexuals should be tortured and/or killed are not good muslims/christians etc.
also let us not forget that the "word of god" such as it is spun as, has had at least 2000 years to be increasingly corrupted by mere mortals even you believe it was pure to begin with.
