Gay Marriage and Sharia Law

Suspected homosexuals executed by Iran

How long will gay marriage remain legal in the United States? At least until Islam becomes the dominant religion in America. And then it will likely become illegal once again.

If Islam ever becomes the dominant religion in the United States, then Sharia Law will likely replace the Constitution, and gay marriage, a recent liberty granted by the Supreme Court, will be outlawed. In fact, if Sharia ever becomes the law of America, then gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgenders will be forced once again to go back into the closet. If not, then they'll likely be eliminated from society.

So will a lot of other folks such as Christians, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, pagans etc. For now, there are only about seven million Muslims living in the U.S. that accounts for about two percent of the population. Though that doesn't sound like much, consider that American Muslims have already managed to gain for themselves the same favored-protected status as an identity group as gays. 

That means those who attempt to criticize their lifestyle, culture or religion will now come under the same condemnation and charges for discrimination and hate crimes as those who criticize the LGBT lifestyle. And that also means that Muslims are exempted from performing certain tasks in America that are forbidden by Sharia. 

Such as? Performing same-sex weddings. If your local church refuses to marry two members of the same sex because the pastor claims that the Bible condemns homosexuality, then your local church and its pastor can now be charged with discrimination. However, if your local mosque refuses to marry two members of the same sex because the Imam claims that the Koran condemns homosexuality, the couple will then be advised to find another venue that will perform the ceremony.

Certainly, both the Bible and the Koran condemn homosexuality. What does the Koran say about homosexuality? It says this: "If any of your women commit a lewd act, call four witnesses from among you, then, if they testify to their guilt, keep the women at home until death comes to them or until God gives them another way out. If two men commit a lewd act, punish them both; if they repent and mend their ways, leave them alone—God is ready to accept repentance from those who do evil out of ignorance and soon afterwards repent: these are the ones God will forgive." (Sura 4:15-16) 

It also says this: And We sent Lot as a Messenger: Remember that he said to his people, "Have you become so shameless that you commit such indecent acts as no one has committed before you in the world? You gratify your lust with men instead of women: indeed you are a people who transgress the limits! And We rained upon his people; then behold what happened in the end to the guilty ones!" (Sura 7:80-84) 

Here's what the Hadith (Sayings of Muhammad) teaches about homosexuality: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "Whoever you find doing the action of the people of Lot, execute the one who does it and the one to whom it is done." (Abu Dawud 4462) It also says this: "If a man who is not married is seized committing sodomy, he will be stoned to death." (Abu Dawud 4448)  

And it says this: "The Prophet cursed effeminate men (those men who are in the similitude (assume the manners of women) and those women who assume the manners of men, and he said, 'Turn them out of your houses .' The Prophet turned out such-and-such man, and 'Umar turned out such-and-such woman." (Bukhari 72:774)  

The Koran and the Hadith contain more verses that condemn the gay lifestyle than the Bible does. (Leviticus 18:22, Leviticus 20:13, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11) And yet, Christians are labeled as bigots for quoting scripture verses to condemn the gay lifestyle while Muslims are usually ignored when they quote the Koran and the Hadith to condemn that lifestyle.

Why is that? Because Islam is a religion that's historically been advanced by violence while Christianity has used peaceful methods to advance the gospel. Oh sure, there are those brain surgeons out there who'll point to the Crusades and the Inquisitions to try and find moral equivalence with Islam. 

However, those who've used violence to spread Christianity did so in opposition to what Christ taught while those who use violence to spread Islam do so in obedience to what Muhammad taught. 

Gays may be celebrating in America at the moment. However, that celebration could be short-lived if Islam continues to expand its influence throughout the U.S. If you don't think that will ever happen, then take a look at what's happening in Western Europe. That's an omen of America's future.
