What does Islam really teach about homosexuality?

You know how people say you can't be homosexual and still be a follower of the Prophet? And other liberal people say that's a lie made up by right-wingers such as your obedient servant? Check out "A practical guide for Muslims on how to navigate LGBTQ Pride month".

That allegedly homophobic guide helping Muslims navigate through Pride Month, was published by 5Pillars, a prominent Muslim news organization known in Broken Britain for supporting the Green Party and other forms of wokeism. But gay culture, it seems, is strictly haram!

The short “practical” guide for Western Muslim invaders emphasizes that, according to Islamic texts and scholars, both homosexual acts and same-sex marriage are forbidden and immoral. 

Although it states that same-sex attraction, being involuntary, is not inherently sinful, it encourages homosexual Muslims to seek conversion therapy because acting on their desires is "religiously prohibited." Homosexuality is framed as an affliction that calls for "compassion without compromise."

Good Islamic parents are advised to monitor their children's information diet -- the information, misinformation and disinformation kids get through schools, social media or pop culture -- and to "neutralize" LGBT-friendly messages through Islamic teaching.

5Pillars bills itself as "the largest English-language Muslim news site in Europe, Australia and the Americas". If they have even half the hundreds of thousands of followers they claim, 5Pillars is definitely not a fringe voice.

In related news: The wokesters at the University of Western Ontario in London (ON -- not the big one) have got their pink knickers all in a twist when followers of the Prophet compained about this image posted on social media, which shows four couples -- none of them straight and white -- including two women in the traditional Muslim hijab, about to share a kiss. 

The image drew fierce criticism from some Muslims, which Western acknowledged in a message issued yesterday announcing why they'd removed the post. "Our intent with the post was to demonstrate Western's unwavering support for the 2SLGBTQ+ community on the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia," the post said. 

"We also understand the image was upsetting for some members of the Muslim community." UWO statement went on to say that the post was intended to trigger discussions about how to support queer Muslims. "In order to promote that discussion, we have removed the image from the post to not distract from these important conversations."

A post on The Change.org describes the image of two women wearing the hijab and about to kiss as "offensive." The text goes on to say that the post uses the image of two Muslim women in a way that is insensitive and overtly sexual. "The depiction of the hijab in such a context is disrespectful, tokenizing, and attempting to redefine elements of the hijab by sexualizing and fetishizing an element of Islamic religion that is supposed to desexualize and encapsulate modesty."

A statement issued by the London Council of Imams also supported the decision to have the post taken down. "While we understand that the intent of the poster published on by May17.org is to promote inclusion, we can see that the goal was not met and the means used were contrary to inclusion. Many were left with the impression that Muslims were singled out in having a symbol of their religion included in the poster." The statement went on to say that posting the image led to "hateful comments" being directed at Muslims. "We unequivocally reject any hateful statement directed toward any religion or group based on their religion, culture, ethnicity, and/or sexual orientation." 

But wait, there's more. The headline on Canadian website CP24 reads: "Pride flag burned at Markham school, 2 suspects facing charges". York Region police say two suspects are facing charges in a "potentially hate-motivated incident" that saw a Markham ON school's Pride flag burned.

The coppers responded to an unnamed school located near Yonge Street and Clark Avenue in Markham on Tuesday for reports that the flag had been burned. Investigators determined that two suspects attended the school a day earlier at approximately 2300 and removed the flag from its holder, ripped it, and attempted to set it on fire.

Walt doesn't understand how such an act can be "potentially" hate-motivated. Is that like being "potentially pregnant"? Seems to me an act either is or is not hate-motivated. Perhaps it's a question of proof, rather than jumping to conclusions.

But wait. The two 18-year-old suspects have now been identified as Sepehr Abadar and Mahan Mohammad Radmard, both of Markham, both former students of the school. The young Mohammedans have each been charged with mischief under $5000, and police have now deleted the "potentially" from their account of the incident. A spokesthingy told the meejua "York Regional Police takes all hate-motivated incidents seriously and will not tolerate any form of hate crime."

Poster-child for "gender fluidity" arrested for theft of designer duds

According to a statement from the US Department of Energy, "Sam Brinton is on leave from DOE."

"Who?" Walt hears you ask. And "So what?" Well... Brinton -- no "Mr" or "Ms" for this person -- is in charge of the DOE's nuclear waste disposal program. They (their preferred pronoun) was appointed in June at the tender age of 35, making them, making them the most prominent "gender-fluid" person in the Brandon administration.

"Why is they on leave?", Walt hears you ask. Because they has been charged with stealing, from the Minneapolist-St Paul airport baggage claims area, of a Vera Bradley suitcase which, including its contents, was worth $2325. 

A criminal complaint filed on 27 October alleges that the theft occurred on September 16th. Police were alerted by a woman that her suitcase was missing from a carousel in the baggage claim area. The cops now say that Brinton then took the tag from the suitcase, put the tag in a handbag and then left with the case "at a quick pace". (Notice they didn't say "mincing".)

Brinton, who had not checked in a suitcase when flying from DCA to MSP, took the case to the InterContinental hotel, and then returned to Washington with it two days later. They allegedly took the case on a trip to Europe a few days later. Police eventually telephoned the diversity hire, who initially denied doing anything wrong. 

Later, they admitted taking the case, but said it contained "my clothes when I opened the bag." They went on to say that it would have been "“weirder" to leave a bag than the clothes at the hotel. They have not yet commented publicly. And Walt certainly has no comment about the Alphabet people or diversity hiring or anything non-PC.

Footnote: Oh... You were wondering about the backdrop to the photo? Brinton was attending the premiere of Conversion, a movie which, according to its website, is "a story of survival and hope, [which] follows five survivors as they shed light on the secretive and often deadly practices of conversion therapy."
