Comments on: Islam teaches death for gays says Islamic chaplain associated with Vanderbilt University https://wthrockmorton.com/2010/01/30/islamicteachesdeathforgays/ A [retired] college psychology professor's observations about public policy, mental health, sexual identity, and religious issues Sun, 31 Jan 2010 06:03:46 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.8.3 By: David Roberts https://wthrockmorton.com/2010/01/30/islamicteachesdeathforgays/#comment-36988 Sun, 31 Jan 2010 06:03:46 +0000 https://www.wthrockmorton.com/?p=5987#comment-36988 I can’t say I’m entirely surprised by the Muslim Chaplain’s response, and I’ve certainly heard Christians take a similar tack — “you can’t take a black highlighter to scripture” and other stuff that would enshrine their own interpretation alongside scripture itself (as though there is no thought process involved).

The group mentioned in the post, Youth for Western Civilization, also disturbs me. I admit that I don’t know much about them, but the name itself and what little I read tonight about their goals seemed a bit creepy.
