I first had someone say to me "There's no reason Muslims and gays can't get along" probably about 15 or 20 years ago.
Someone tell me their favourite bit of the Koran, or a "really great time I had in a Mosque that one time". Or your best stories out on the town with Muslim friends.
Don't try smartass replies by talking about Christiianity, because I haven't promoted it or expressed any illogical "admiration" for it.
Just tell me your favourite verse. Or alternatively, give me a list of the emergency appointments that all stopped you from attending a Mosque open day, or reading the Koran, for the last consecutive 22 years since September 2001. Or your favourite verse.
