Mind quoting where?

I see where Liri said "often at the urging of American Christian fundamentalists" but I don't really think he meant ALL Christian fundamentalists are responsible.

God,some people need to calm down. Will there be anti-LGBT groups in the world? Of course there will be. Will there be hate crimes? Yes. But will a goverment sponsored Witch Hunt to round up the gays ever happen? Fuck no it won't.

Friendly reminder that a genocide in all but name is happening in Chechnya right now, and that some African countries have seen a veritable wave of state-sanctioned persecution of LGBT people and their allies, often at the urging of American Christian fundamentalists.

Chechnya is pretty much ruled by wahabbis and other ultra extreme Muslims. Frankly I'm amazed they aren't giving LGBT's express trips off the side of buildings and recording it.

I'm sorry, but that couldn't be more false. Kadyrov is a Sufi, and is one of the biggest enemies of Wahabis -- he's known for killing them.

Hmm, I'd heard otherwise.

Apparently he has quite a bit in common with them though.

Must not have enough cameras to do it. I don't doubt they show the LGBT people in their communities the "regenerate treatment" all the same.

No, he doesn't. As I said, he is like the arch-anti-Wahabi. He is literally only president of Chechnya because he is REALLY good at killing Wahabis.

Trying to suppress homosexuality is not a Wahabi thing, it's basically an social conservative thing in-general. Even most atheists in Russia hate gays.

He can be the arch-anti-wahabi all he wants, from the outside looking in he seems pretty similar.

Of course I guess those types of attitudes sadly aren't too uncommon in that part of the world.

Maybe if by "the outside", you mean outside of any and all social conservatism. All of us want to suppress the homosexual community to some degree, but Muslims especially do this. Wahabism is not defined by extreme social conservatism, but by iconoclasm and individual Jihad.

This is how I think as a religious person. I am completely fine with having LGBT people in society, and giving them equal rights. What I don't like about LGBT is that it's becoming very normalized and almost to the point that you shouldn't be able to tell your children that being gay would not be an ideal. It's become to the point in which if I married someone and had a child, I would be yelled at for telling my child being gay was not in our belief.

As a religious person myself I wouldn't mind if one of my kids is gay.

It's their life, so fuck it. I'm not the one sleeping with their partners (nor would I want to).

It would bother me because it would cause my child to have additional struggles that I might not be able to help them with, because I would have no power to just wave a magic wand and make them straight or cis or whatever.
