    I’m not saying we should ignore anything. I’m saying we shouldn’t ignore the extremely high rate of extremism within Islam.

    But if you want to prove me wrong, point to a single Muslim country where apostasy and homosexuality are socially accepted

      And I’m saying you don’t seem to understand how large a number 1.7 billion is…

      But if you want to prove me wrong, point to a single Muslim country where apostasy and homosexuality are socially accepted

      Lebanon

        Lebanon isn’t a Muslim nation. It has a significant Muslim plurality. And homosexuality is de facto illegal there AND extremely socially unacceptable, with 85% of Lebanese people saying it should be “rejected by society.”

        Give me a Muslim nation where homosexuality and apostasy are both legal and socially acceptable.

        Since you edited your post after I replied like a dirty little liar, here’s a second reply.

        Can I name a Christian majority country where being gay is generally acceptable, being an apostate is generally acceptable, and both are legal? Yeah. Canada, the US, Australia, Spain, the UK, France, Germany, etc, etc, etc.
