If a country where many people follow a book that says homosexuals should be stoned to death are abusing homosexuals I think it is naive to dismiss the connection.

And yes, Europe nowadays is quite tolerant, and I am very thankful to live there myself as a queer man, but it was a very different story in many countries only 100 years ago.

You can thank the European overlords pushing christianity everywhere during the colonial ages for shit like this.

Not that the islam is much better in other regions, but nigeria is christian afaik
