Hope for Islam?

Try this news article.

It deals with a marriage between two gay members of the religion of Islam.

Interesting paragraph:

According to Al Arabiya, a gay Mauritian imam named Jamal presided over the marriage of Ludovic Mohamed Zahed, a French man of Algerian origin, and Qiyam al-Din in Din’s native South Africa earlier this year.

Love is everywhere, and so are gay people.

Really?

How does any religious leader justify a death as a recompense for the burning of a book? Books are metaphors and, sometimes, symbols; people's lives are real.

Surely the deity does not condone such actions.
