It’s not been a great month for religious tolerance. [I’ll gfive you a second to clutch your pearls.] first, the Sultan of Brunei passed an horrific law sanctioning death by stoning for gay sex. The law applies only to Muslims, further oppressing Brunei’s gay community; while the country’s businesses, hotels, etc are happy to continue accepting the money of non-Muslim gay visitors.
No, thank you, mister sultan. That’s not how the LGBTQ community works. An attack on one of us is an attack on all of us. It was encouraging to see the counter-reaction, from the Dorchester Hotel protest to all the many organisations and findividuals taking a stand.
