michael,
thanks, man. love the avitar

very canadian of you lol.
xoogsade and lion,
it is not about political correctness. wtf is that anyway? the word is used by those who practice the somali saying: "farta iyo meesha bugtaa is og"
by the way, there are muslims who welcome queer muslims. they include the progressive muslim movement, the reform muslim movement as well as the liberal muslim movement. they are all muslims... who question the centuries old hatred of muslims... such as anti-semitism, homophobia, islamism, etc.
assuming you live in canada, lionheart, do you know tarek fateh? he is the president of "MCC"(muslim canadian congress) and the host of "muslim chronicle" on tv. he and his wife nargis wrote in the toronto star a wonderful article -- gasp ! -- supporting gay marriage. masha allah

i guess some people are civilized.. and others are just not meant to be. as allah said, they are "deaf, dumb and blind"

afdhere
