What does the Koran say about gay marriage?

Noooo, the Canadians are soooo tolerant, even the Muslim community will welcome these visitors. It won't matter...

I know what they do to adulterers: Bury them up to their necks and stone them to death.

Now that's just 'rumor'. Stories from the old country. Why that would never happen in a modern nation.

Actually, it will be almost fun to watch the clash. The Muslim Canadians outraged at the gay tourists.

And turnabout is fair play. If anyone's been to Maine, especially to the shore in the summer, it is quite common to see gay 'couples' from Canada, as noted by the Ontario and Quebec license plates and, for some, the French spoken.

And when that got boring we could watch Canadian Baptist tourists outraged at American Muslim gays.

Muslims step out at Gay Pride

"Actually, it will be almost fun to watch the clash. The Muslim Canadians outraged at the gay tourists."

All this stuff to please the gay community and there is no guarantee that they will still love you in the morning. More important, as you implied, Canada pandering to the gay community will be disrespected by many cultures and religions. From Arab Islamic to American evangelical it will be seen as a sign of a collective character weakness. It is one thing to tolerate a behavior, it is an entirely different matter to encourage it or profit from it.
