I wasn't making a comparison, just a point in jest.
You're trying to say that Christians are a little more accepting of gaiety than are Muslims, in some official sense. The only real difference is that Christianity is making some half-assed efforts toward appearing to be in the beginning processes of acceptance... but only of heterosexual gays and even then only on Tuesdays.
It's sort of like me trying to figure out whether Chojin or Max Burbank respects you more.
You also seem to be trying to make a larger point about the difference in public expectation for the two religious belief systems. Riveting stuff, man. Shocking. We expect a bit more from Christianity than we do Islam. You may be on to something here.
Wait a minnit... I forgot all about freedom of religion... Do you have that in your country? Personally, I can respect any religious belief as long as it is honest belief and practiced faithfully. Much of modern Christian teaching, especially treatment of gays, does not square with the teachings of Jesus. Muslim teaching, contrarily, does reflect the teachings of Muhammed, at least in this instance.
Funny how religions can differ like that.

How can someone who obviously thinks so much of their ideas have so little respect for expressing them? How can someone who so yearns to be taken seriously make so little effort?!
