No surprise here.
The Qur’an contains numerous condemnations of homosexual activity: “And [We had sent] Lot when he said to his people, ‘Do you commit such immorality as no one has preceded you with from among the worlds? Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people.’…And We rained upon them a rain [of stones]. Then see how was the end of the criminals.” (Qur’an 7:80-84)
Muhammad specifies the punishment for this in a hadith: “The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, ‘Whoever you find doing the action of the people of Loot, execute the one who does it and the one to whom it is done.’” (Sunan Abu Dawud 4462)
Will gay rights advocates say a word about this? Of course not. It has long been established that in the hierarchy of politically correct causes, Islam trumps gay rights. When AFDI ran ads highlighting the mistreatment of gays in Islamic law, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors issued a resolution condemning not that mistreatment, but our ads. Gay advocates such as Theresa Sparks and Chris Stedman attacked us for daring to call attention to the institutionalized mistreatment of gays under Islamic law. It was that, or risk not being invited to the best parties.
“PRIDE TERROR FEARS Couple held after ‘plotting terror attack with car and knives at London Pride,’” by Mike Sullivan, The Sun, July 6, 2019:
A COUPLE are suspected of plotting an attack on the Pride celebrations taking place in central London tomorrow.
A 28-year-old man and woman aged aged 25 are feared to have been planning a crude strike with a car and knives at the mass rally expected to be attended by up to a million people from around the world.
The couple were arrested on Wednesday morning in their car by counter-terror cops in Luton town centre, Beds….
A 40-year-old Swedish woman was arrested at Gatwick airport on suspicion of the “commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.’’
‘BIGGEST PRIDE EVER’She was held after arriving on a flight from Italy just before 2.15pm on Thursday.
Her arrest is understood to be related to the Islamic State group.
Meanwhile, a 19-year-old man was arrested by armed cops yesterday morning at an address in south west London on suspicion of plotting terrorist acts.
Police said the raid was not connected to the earlier Luton arrests but declined to provide any further information.
Raids were carried out at residential and business premises in Luton following the arrest of the Luton couple….

As a reader of yours, Mr. Spencer, who happens to be of the gay persuasion, I just want to say that not all of us are in complete denial of reality when it comes to islam. However, you are quite correct that when one speaks out about the truth, one is most definitely excommunicated and no longer invited to any parties, be they the best parties or the worst parties. The invitations just cease.
Not sure what to do about that other than continue telling the truth, which is what I do. My very liberal spouse actually now understands the threat posed by islam and no longer thinks I am insane. And a very good, longtime friend from grammar school told me recently he is currently reading Douglas Murray’s “The Strange Death of Europe” and we had an hour long conversation – which was a major break through compared to the previous time we had talked and he thought I was crazy.
Little by little we are making progress with the truth.
I was very heartened to see you with David Woods on the video yesterday. I hope your road to recovery continues and that you are with us for many decades to come. So glad you are well again.
Dawne Swift says
I hope that we are making progress. I find that in private some people agree with me when I speak about these things, but would not say this publicly. However, when I talk to others whose heads are still firmly embedded in the sand, as you say, they either implicitly or explicitly call me “racist” and we rarely meet again. Whilst I do not wish this type of attack to succeed, and thank our police force who thwart these terrorists, maybe it will take more successful terrorist attacks to convince these “very liberal” people of the very real threat to our society and indeed our civilisation.

Good for you, David! There are definitely Gay Anti-Jihadists.
TimC says
The level of close-mindedness towards the idea of being gay but conservative (or libertarian, or anything else) is simply jaw-dropping. Suicidal really. Setbacks or resistance to certain rights is one thing – and this thing is gradually being eroded anyway (thankfully). But those things are a battle for down the road – lose basic rights and none of them matter! The Left in general is so stupidly blind to this it’s just revolting. Good to hear that at least in your immediate situation a couple people are noticing things and coming around.
HugoHackenbush says
Mr. Stephenson,
Read all of the Koran and then you will be in a position to advise others to “just read it for yourself and judge it for yourself”. It also helps to explain “abrogation” so that the reader understands that the violent passages have “overwritten” the peaceful ones. I have found that this works best to make someone reconsider their position and not put up a “tit-for-tat” resistance. If you are a glutton for punishment then proceed with also reading the Hadiths and the biography of Mr. You-Know-Who.

A good expose of the cult and it’s based of evil is as follows. It’s a free read and highlights the formation of the evil in the cult. http://thestoryofmohammed.blogspot.com/?m=1

The tolerant Muslims will have homosexuals flying off tall buildings like Superman and after watching both parties crap all over judeo christian values, I will enjoy watching them eat one another. They have dragged the same Christian baker into court three times now. Get tired of gay pride crap everywhere.

Indiana Tom, I still assume you consider it a good thing that Jihadists were not able to murder people at this parade?

Great quote, Tom.
william carr says
Mr Stevenson: I do not support your chosen life style though you are of course free to make your choices. However why is understanding Islam so hard? In Iran they hang homosexuals from cranes and throw them of high buildings, not to mention what they do to them in jail in most Muslim countries! What ISIS did to them is beyond thinking about. What is to understand? Cannot homosexuals read or think? Is it the morass of Political correctness? One has to ask the question.
mortimer says
Thank you, Stephen, for speaking out on behalf of the many highly principled and observant gay people who see the hatred directed against them by Islam. The self-appointed gay leaders are less gay leaders defending gay rights than they are promoters of the neo-Marxist globalist agenda.
Gay rights are compatible with Western, pluralistic democracy, but INCOMPATIBLE with ANY of Islam’s political manifestations. Sharia law has four ways of dealing with gay people: 1) whipping 2) burning 3) throwing from a high place with stoning (many survive the fall) 4) pushing a wall on top of them.
Angemon says
Yes, what could there be in common with these three arrests?…
R Russell says
What a dilemma for the UK authorities. Since both minorities are equally favoured it must have been a difficult decision to decide who needed more protection.
somehistory says
Does that “Vanessa, queer, moslim, Black, woman” know about this?
abad says
That is OK because the unbelievably delusional liberal elite who claim Islam Tolerates Homosexuality(TM Pending), endorsed by prominent gays like George Takei, want Moslems as their neighbours.

‘ONLY’ 25,000 jihadists in UK want to murder gay people! Nothing to see here! Nothing to see here!
THE INDEPENDENT:
“UK home to up to 25,000 Islamist extremists who could pose a threat, EU official warns”
The UK is home to up to 25,000 Islamist extremists who could pose a threat, the EU’s top terror official has warned.
Officials have warned that the threat from home-grown jihadis who are prevented from joining Isis in Syria and Iraq is increasing, with the group inciting global terror attacks to maintain momentum.
Gilles de Kerchove, the EU’s counter-terror coordinator, said he expected more atrocities following the deadly car rammings in Barcelona and Cambrils.
AND THE GAY COMMUNITY IS ASLEEP to all the warnings from experts on terrorism.

As a devout Christian we will be safer living under Islam the glbtq madness
tgusa says
We have groups In America proclaiming solidarity with islam. Pretty much all the so-called liberal sub-groups are on board. I know, we look at their platform and think, what the hell is wrong with these people? Do they hate themselves, have they lost their minds? Many thinking people do recognize that anything the left touches it destroys so I guess the left is living up to that well earned reputation. The embrace of islam will be the end of the left. We need to begin formulating a plan so the left doesn’t bring us down with them.
Two of the most clueless sub-groups of the leftist lot, feminists for islam, gays for islam. Hollywood couldn’t make this stuff up, they couldn’t sell that idea on a large scale, it would be too unbelievable.A bridge too far even for Hollywood.
UNCLE VLADDI says
Why would anyone try to stop this?!
Gays are among the most prominent islam and muslm-supporters.
They desperately need a nice and public, irrefutable wake-up call!
