I fear I may be a victim of propoganda. This is why I ask those of Islam. Would you condone Kids being killed for their loves? It just boggles my mind and I seek understanding. Please, everyone of islam faith, help me understand. I pray people are not so horrid. Thanks.

This is one I had to respond to cyn honey! I know that there are some horror stories that we hear pf happening in the Muslim world but there are militant nuslims just as there are militant christians - I am sure that you have met a few so called Christians who would do the same kind of thing? I am pretty sure this is where you are heading with this discussion but I just wanted to put my 2c worth in here. There are those from every background, religion, faith and culture who believe they have the right to judge others as though they themselves are God! xxx

Homosexuality is a sin in Islam. If it is practiced by un-matured, will not be treated as punishable. but for matured people homosexuality is a sin and punishable. What punishment to be given I'm not sure about it. God says the stories of ancient generations who practiced the Homosexuality. Sadoom (Sodom) and Gomorrah. God had gave them punishment and destroyed those people with some dangerous disasters of Storm and Acid rain.

Sodom was one of 5 cities set to be destroyed that day. It was not homosexuality but inhospitality that caused their destruction. Either way, it is wrong to hang a person for what they feel.

I am a Hindu. I think homosexuality is a mental disease. It should be treated in hospitals. But why these people are killing gays????

It's not a mental disease. IT's an inborn attraction to one's own gender. But I do agree that they shouldn't be executed for their feelings.
