Activist groups hold Queer Muslim Gathering in Detroit

A two-day gathering aimed at educating and liberating Muslims in the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community opened in Detroit on Friday.

Muslims for Progressive Values and the Agency for LGBT African Americans, or KICK, teamed up to create the Queer Muslim Gathering, which included a meet-and-greet on Friday and an all-day conference Saturday.

The gathering featured Imam Daayiee Abdullah of Washington, a gay Muslim leader who grew up in Detroit and converted from Southern Baptist Convention, the Detroit Free Press reports.

“We feel it is important for LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered) Muslims to be included as equals into the straight Muslim society,” Mr. Abdullah said.

He said the goal of the conference was to empower gay Muslims, “to educate them on their Islamic rights, to debunk homophobic theories that is passed on as ‘truth.’”

I hope they have good security. By outing themselves they’ve just made themselves the A#1 target for bombings,
beheadings, and all others sorts of Islamic terrorism.

Then again, it’s only us Christian opponents of gay marriage who are intolerant.

The islamoturdburglers condone buggering little kids but they may have an issue with their jihadi scouts hitting on the grown men bending over for mecca. It should make for some interesting street theater.

I would bet there isn’t one real Muslim in this bunch.

They are African-American blacks, Farrakhan Muslims, who play act at being Muslims./ When the real Muslims get rolling they will be the first to lose their heads.
