WASHINGTON — Peaceful Muslims who live outside the United States think American society "has gone completely insane" over LGBT issues, Sheikh Hamza Yusuf said on a Monday panel hosted by the Southern Baptist Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission.
After discussing President Barack Obama's edict directing all public schools to base their bathroom use policies upon gender identity rather than biological sex, the moderator turned to Yusuf to ask how Muslims view the issue.
Even to think about thinking about it is probably difficult for a lot of Muslims. In the Muslim world ... they think we're a society that's gone completely insane," said Yusuf, an American Sunni Muslim scholar.
Besides Yusuf, the panel, "With Liberty and Justice for All: Why We Should Pursue Religious Freedom for Everyone," also had a Catholic archbishop, William Lori, a Latter-day Saints elder, Dallin Oaks, and an evangelical pastor, Russell Moore, who heads the ERLC.
Yusuf also expressed concerns that younger Muslims are "being inculturated into these lifestyles," but older immigrant Muslims, particularly black Muslims, "share the evangelical view."
Archbishop Lori articulated the concerns that Catholic leaders have with Obama's transgender bathroom directive.

Yay
Something we can agree on
Now hold still while we carpet bomb you
Hey, I finally agree with a Muslim Imam on something.
Obama is clearly Islamophobic for disagreeing with this Muslim
I thought they all are. /s
You see what the Muslims do to accommodate their perversity is to write it into their laws:
They have “temporary marriages” that allow them to “thigh” with young children. They have “cultural allowance” to let them sodomize young boys to pacify their “needs” when away from their cloaked wives. They encourage and accept bestiality as a means of pacification of a man’s “needs.”
I guess what they have a problem with is having it out in the open. because it is all too common behind the scenes in Islamist countries.
The savages are right for once.
Hey Muzzies San Francisco and Washington D.C. have enormous LGBT populations and they think Allah sucks. BTW D.C. Is so unafraid of you they even gave you nukes and a $150B check to buy all the weapons you wanted. Pretty stupid infidels eh?
The left keeps claiming that “Donald Trumps’ inflammatory language serves as a recruiting tool for ISIS” and “Keeping Guantanamo Bay open serves as a recruiting tool for ISIS.” Given how the Muslim world views homosexuals, isn’t Obama’s efforts to to impose the LGBT agenda on the rest of society serving as a recruiting tool for ISIS?
God, now I’m agreeing with MUSLIM LEADERS!!!!!!
Insane people force their insane behavior on the people. This is what tyranny looks like.
You know, this actually kind of works for me. I’m far more comfortable dealing with some poor isolated and confused soul who just wants to find a place to go wee, than I am with importing the kind of nightmare that Germany has.
There’s unintended consequences in the former, and very intended consequences in the latter. Unintended consequences tend to get fixed, intended ones, not so much.
Americans aren’t going crazy over LGBT issues. A super small minority with the aid of the leftist media is making it seem like it.
Did I just say to myself ... “I really agree with those Muslims?” (Losing it!)
Pretty much.
Stopped reading after I discovered that the first two words were lies.
We can agree on that.
Yeah, so its probably best for everyone if they stay in their own countries.
Even when it comes to (unfortunately) homosexual-friendly Israel radical homos are siding with the homophobic "palestinians" (because homos and "palestinians" are oppressed by The Man).
Many religions forbid things, when someone is watching.
