    It's ok, Drac16 - I don't think this thread will turn into a religious debate, but this is the internet, so you can never quite say for sure!

    I understand that, as a Muslim, your faith is very important to you. I understand there are certain beliefs that come with your faith, such as the belief that homosexuality is ungodly.

    On this forum, we just try to stick to more concrete concepts, that's all; concepts that everybody can accept and understand. We just try to keep things more scientific, rather than abstract. For example, nobody truly knows God. Nobody actually knows what he or she wants (or if he or she exists). So people's opinions on that will differ wildly. Their opinions on actual medical advice, less so.

    Don't worry, it's not that religion doesn't have a place in people's lives, it's just that discussing it openly on a place like this is very rarely helpful. Same goes for all abstract spiritual concepts, really. They're personal, and as there is no way to measure or confirm the validity of these concepts, it's unlikely that sharing them will even convince others that they too should accept them. Often, mentioning these beliefs does more harm than good, as many of the forum's past religious arguments proves.
