I have.So you guys have never heard of Christian African countries that oppress gay people. Fine. Its just Muslims.
I wouldn't call anyone who wasn't Christian in those countries Christian, would you?

FixedStill find it astounding how focused you are on the ills of one faiths followers and able to disregard the ills of followers from all other faith.The machineIslam really has done a job to ensure Muslims are disliked regardless of what they do. It is deeply sad for me.
i think everyone is against all demographics that "oppress gay people" - no one has remotely suggested otherwise. however this is a thread of the chinese oppression of uighur muslims, hence why there is a debate on where the chinese government's raison d'etre behind this potentially comes from
I think there's more to their reasoning than just that.China's oppression of the Uighur seems driven by religion or is that stating the obvious?
There are Christian countries in Africa where it is illegal to be gay.Of course but there is a distinct difference between pockets of religious hardliners given people a hard time and homosexuality being illegal by law because of religion. The law is there to protect not to oppress. Many African countries use secular law but also islamic law in order to police harder, especially in Nigeria and Western Africa.
Is there not a rapper in Kano who was at risk of execution by the state because of blasphemy, I mean these things cant big ignored when countries are running their law like this because no person is higher than Prophet Mohammed (in their words in this case).
You talk like people are ok with other bad things because they highlight these things, if it makes you feel better I can list every other oppression in the world that upsets me if it makes you feel better and that we are being more balanced for your feelings?
Some of which carry the death penalty because of its implementation of the death penalty law...like Northern Nigeria, Mauritania, Somalia, Sudan etc...wonder where they got that law from?
I get your issue though, we can't highlight any issue unless we even it up by highlighting every issue on he planet, then the point becomes relevant shesssh.
Let's not make out that this forum isn't diverse with its bashing of other religions or cultures, it bashes everyone in equal measures.
Additionally I'm non religious, my family are Jewish and I was raised a jew abit like you with Islam but I can take step back and realise our beliefs are far fetched and our oppression of Palestine is wrong for example.
Religion in many regions needs to grow up nd modernise but Islam needs a fast track, the idea that some religions believe that a man had an elephants head but don't have a death penalty for those that don't shows how far behind the curve Islam is. Sorry but that's a fact
So Judaism doesn't need fixing but Islam does?
I think much of it is just your bog standard ethnic cleansing.What would their additional reasoning be?
So to summarise this thead:
Islam is bad because it doesn't like gays or women but other religions that also do not like gays or women aren't as bad because they're not as bad as Islam.

All religion is bad, Islam is being discussed because we're discussing Uighur Muslims.So to summarise this thead:

Just like capitalism then.All religion is bad. It's a tool to control and oppress the masses for the benefit of the few.
Just like oh-so-many man made structuresJust like capitalism then.
