A recent poll shows that 0 % of British Muslims thought that homosexuality was morally acceptable

Are all most British Muslims intolerant? Here The a link to an article that explains the finding of a new poll taken by Gallup and the Coexist Foundation: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/patriotic-respectful-and-homophobic-a-portrait-of-british-muslims-state-of-mind-1681062.html

Here is an except from the article:
Not a single British Muslim said homosexuality was morally acceptable, compared to 58 per cent of the general public who believed it was. In other European countries with large Muslim populations such as France
and Germany, the difference was far less pronounced: more than a third of French Muslims said they did not have a problem with homosexuality.

Does this mean that most all British Muslims are intolerant or is there some other explanation?

Liberals and atheists often discredit Christianity because of it's views on homosexuality. However, they never attack Muslim views despite their much more extreme nature.

For example, according to an article entitled "Liberal gays are scared to tell the truth about Muslim homophobia": A recent survey by Policy Exchange had showed that 72 per cent of young Muslim men thought that homosexuality should be recriminalised.

My point is that I don't understand why the MSM, the universities and the popular culture are unfairly demonizing Christians and Arizona cops as bigots and homophobes, while ignoring the biggest homophobes of all, the Muslims.

This intolerance is not confined to the violent extremists who commit terrorist attacks and suicide bombings. These statistics include the "good" Muslims who go to work everyday and raise their families. It seems that Islam is truly a religion that practices intolerance.

Women, Minorities and Gays Are Unfairly Targeted By Syphilis, Chlamydia and Gonorrhea

Here is an excerpt from an article in today's Miami Herald:

• Syphilis up 53 percent, from 204 reported cases in 2006 to 313 cases in 2009, with 73 percent of such cases in men who self-identify as men who have sex with men.

• Chlamydia up 64 percent, from 5,069 to 8,330 cases, with 71 percent of cases among women, mostly between 15 and 24 years of age.

• Gonorrhea up 24 percent, from 1,892 to 2,350 cases, with African Americans and Hispanics several times as likely to be infected as non-Hispanic whites.

Here is the link to the entire article: http://www.miamiherald.com/2010/04/22/1591619/miami-dade-county-sees-surge-in.html

When I saw this article, it reminded me of an article that I read in an Iowa newspaper several years ago. That article made the point that black high school students were disproportionately targeted for suspensions and expulsions. That article went on to blame racism for this disparity, despite the fact that most suspensions and expulsions were for carrying weapons, committing violence and for drug crimes. The evidence was not in dispute. I was suprised to learn that criminal behavior could infect a specific race, just like I am surprised to learn today that STDs are very sexist, racist and homophobic when choosing their victims.

Obviously individual behaviors are responsible for these disparities, not racism, sexism and homophobia. Those who falsely make charges of bigotry, are bigots themselves and should be stigmatized just as strongly as true bigots are. The consequences of false charges of racism can be very severe. The principals in Iowa schools could lose their job because of false charges of racism. Also the students and teachers could be victims of violent crimes if the principal fails to act because of the fear of false charges of racism.

Why are we including race in statistical studies? Race is irrelevant if we are striving toward a color-blind society. Martin Luther King said that all people should be judged by their character [as manifested in their behavior]. People should not be categorized by their race, sex or sexual preference. We should be judged solely by our behavior. After all, isn't that what STDs really do?

Gay Marriage Has Been Defeated In Maine. Gay Marriage Has Now Lost In All 31 States In Which It Has Been Put To a Popular Vote




Yesterday, gay marriage was on the ballot in Maine and lost as usual. http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2009/11/04/politics-us-gay-marriage-analysis_7084392.html

IMHO, the gay activists themselves are responsible for the defeat of gay marriage every time it is put on the ballot.

Gay activists flocked to Maine in the weeks preceding the referendum on Gay marriage. During their rallies, gay activists often show their true colors. They are an intolerant bunch who who demonize their opponents by calling them haters, bigots, racists, and brainwashed bible thumpers. By doing so, they demonstrate their own hate, intolerance and prejudices. They also demonstrate their freakish nature with their antics, dress, profanity and extreme viewpoints. Click on this link to view photos of intolerant gay freaks protesting the outcome of prop 8 in California: http://zombietime.com/prop_8_gay_marriage_ruling/

Watch these eye opening videos and audio files from an anti-gay marriage rally in Maine: http://www.pamshouseblend.com/diary/13803/peter-labarberas-antigay-rally-at-maine-statehouse-draws-feeble-numbers

It seems that the numbers of the gay activists is much greater than the anti-gay activists, however the numbers at the ballot box prove to be the opposite.
