The dispute over people with switched sexual orientation sharpened this spring in Ukraine. LGBT supporters (an initialism that stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) even held a public event in Kyiv - not yet a parade, but already a kind of demonstration. Several dozens of people took part in the event convoyed safely by special forces with a lot of journalists present.

A shred of LGBT supporters keep pushing their interests and “rights” in a cynical manner despite of high dudgeon of religious confessions and high rejection of homosexuality in Ukrainian society. Of course they aren’t acting on their own (that’s why they are so brave) - European structures and politician stand for them, and some accredited missions support them. Even some members of the Ukrainian Parliament started speaking about “the sexual minorities’ rights” since recently. In this article I invite you to think about the sin of homosexuality, the “democracy”, this weird “freedom” and where it leads us to.


Islam, Christianity and Judaism are unanimous in prohibiting and condemning homosexuality. Not only it is considered a sin, but also a crime against bases of the Universe and human nature. Allah Almighty created the humanity as men and women and gave them matching genitals so the men could mell women, and permitted these relations only within the bounds of marriage:


“And of His signs is that He created for you from yourselves mates that you may find tranquillity in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy. Indeed in that are signs for a people who give thought” (Qur’an, 30:21).


“And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof; And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man. And Adam said, This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh: she shall be called Woman, because she was taken out of Man. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh” (the Holy Bible, Book of Genesis, 2:21-24).


One would think it simple and evident, but the human kind is not alone. There’s Shaytan (the Devil) who teaches people to desire without distinction, without faith, and without thinking. Just bare desire.


Their sex attributes don’t stop such people; they think it’s some kind of mistake, that you can change your sex or not take it into account at all. But the Lord Almighty doesn’t make mistakes.


They say they are drawn to same sex relationships, that this is what they want. But the thief is free to steal and a violent person is free to let off steam and beat others after the same pattern, aren’t they? List of examples can be endless.


As for the sacred texts, the followers of the perversion think the spiritual determinations can be abandoned, that they went out of date or even were the product of human fantasies. The most zealous of them think that the God loves them as they are, and some religious pamper their flesh by sealing marriages upon such couples and even let homosexuals become church. They never care that people of Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed by the God for exactly the same sin.


“And [We had sent] Lot when he said to his people, "Do you commit such immorality as no one has preceded you with from among the worlds? Indeed, you approach men with desire, instead of women. Rather, you are a transgressing people."But the answer of his people was only that they said, "Evict them from your city! Indeed, they are men who keep themselves pure." So We saved him and his family, except for his wife; she was of those who remained [with the evildoers]. And We rained upon them a rain [of stones]. Then see how was the end of the criminals” (Qur’an, 7:80-84).


“Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination. Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion. Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you. And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants“ (The Holy Bible, Leviticus, 18:22-25).


The real kicker is that homosexuality was tabooed by many primitive pagan cultures not even operating with ideas of “sin”, “good” and “evil” — just “benefit” and “harm”. Homosexuality was an evident harm for them, as without normal marital relations there won’t be real men (warriors and hunters) and women (domestic goddesses), but the main thing is the tribe is doomed to die without offsprings who are to multiply the wealth and the power of the tribe. Those people knew neither Bible nor Qur’an, but they had life experience of many generations regulating their everyday life and regarding everything that could cause harm as taboo.


As for the harm, there's both religious and medical evidence these pervert sexual relations are abnormal. Many might notice that the issue of HIV/AIDS is often discussed in context of homosexuality, as such people are more liable to these infections. Moreover, the first causes of HIV/AIDS were detected right up their alley.


There is no coincidence, as the risk of getting a ticket is much higher for homosexuals than within traditional sexual relations. Note that proctal carry-over of HIV/AIDS dominates in North America, Europe and Russia, and this is the reason why males between 17 to 45 prevail among all HIV/AIDS positive people.


The same thing with other STDs (sexually transmitted diseases). Syphilis, gonorrhea, herpes, chlamydiosis and human papilloma virus are debilitating with such allocation, and the condition tends to be underdiagnosed due to uncharacteristic clinical implications. This happens due to several factors: first of all because there often is a bucket of infections, and second, any of those viruses (not only HIV/AIDS) inhibit the immunity.


Some words need to be spoken about cancer, which is caused by several types of human papilloma virus. Homosexuals have them more often, and the anal cancer is diagnosed more often in the countries where homosexual relations are popular.


Now the curiosity of modern policies.One of the Ukrainian Parliament parliamentary opposition deputy put the issue of homosexuals, their “rights and needs”, their parades, etc. forward for discussion.


As I represent Ukrainian Muslims to a certain extent, I couldn’t fail to voice our position. I commented his respective facebook status and explained how we, the believers, see this and where it can bring our society. After stormy discussion joined by a lot of LGBT supporters the deputy summarized: democratic freedoms are above all; those people were allegedly our compatriots and their rights and wishes and needs must be respected.


Such position surprised me, and I have some questions raised in my mind: how come that the deputy, chosen by the nation, ignores the will of the most of this nation, and why the politicians keep ignoring the opinion of the religious leaders?


What kind of democracy is that? For real democracy the opinion of most citizens is what really counts, and if most Ukrainians are totally against homosexual relations not to speak of providing them with “their rights and needs” — why is this majority rejected? We are forced into margin minority dictatorship of sexual perverts. Why the whole country must watch deviant behaviour of those people and come in terms with their sexual needs?


Really democratic and courageous politicians can say no to any forced values referring to the will of their nation, no matter where those values came from, let it be America, Europe, Russia, China or any other country. “We are against this, and this is the will of the people who chose me to represent their interests!” The politician not afraid to speak these words will always be regarded.


I am convinced that everyone believing in the message of Torah, Bible and Qur’an must stand together against homosexuality. Of course, this must be a civilized opposition within the means of legislation. We must let everyone know that we won’t let them stomp out our values, our culture, our faith and our conscience under the pretence of defending somebody’s rights and freedoms.


We have our needs, too - to be full men and women, to raise kids in families where dad is a man and mom is a woman. If we stay silent - very soon crowds of coloured perverts will follow our children in the streets, and we, indeed, will be prohibited to say homosexuality is abnormal. And after that they come to our Holy Scriptures and demand to edit them, deleting everything the sex minorities don’t like. And if we refuse - we will be considered extremists. You think I’m overreacting? This process has already started in some European countries.


Islam stands for healthy families, for full men and women, for children who have both mom and dad. If the mankind doesn’t stop this total Sodomisation, the story of Sodom and Gomorrah from the Bible and the Qur’an will be repeated once again, in the planetary scale this time.
