Mozza theres a difference in the catholic religion about commiting and sin and in the muslim religion. In the catholic religion you have some sex before marrige you can go to confession, get forgivness, try not to do it again.
In the muslem religion if your gay your a shame on your family and they arn't supposed to have any contact with you. I dont think there are any religions which are gay friendly, I'm pretty sure they all are supposed to be anti-gay.
Catholisism preaches that sex is for pro-creation and not recration so even if you dont belive the "lying with another man" bit of the bible, gay men can't pro-create so shouldn't have sex. I think the Catholic church lets you be gay, just as long as you dont act on the sinful feelings.
Not sure exactly what the muslim religions says about gays but they're a fair bit stricter. Where the Catholic religion will care for the families of people who may have been shamed, in many religions if you bring shame on yourself...it's reflected on to your family, considered they didn't raise you right or something.
My personal opinion, I dont care if anyones gay...go for it and my best wishes....I just hate camp people....I've known too many, it's always an act and it's always very very very annoying, over the top, attention seeking, covering up for something, throwing themselves in everyones face and no need for it at all.
