Here are the 10 countries where homosexuality may be punished by death
- Yemen
- Iran
- Iraq
- Mauritania
- Nigeria
- Qatar
- Saudi Arabia

- Sudan
- United Arab Emirates
Seems many Muslim countries execute Gays because their laws have established death as the punishment for homosexuality. Sad.

5 Muslim Nations Where Gay is Legal - LGBT Muslims
From Wiki:
However, in 20 out of 57 Muslim-majority nations same-sex intercourse is not forbidden by law.
The Ottoman Empire (predecessor of Turkey) decriminalized homosexuality in 1858. In Turkey, where 99.8% of the population is Muslim, homosexuality has never been criminalized since the day it was founded in 1923.[74] And LGBT people also have the right to seek asylum in Turkey under the Geneva Convention since 1951.[75]
Same-sex sexual intercourse is legal in Albania, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Burkina Faso, Chad, Djibouti, Guinea-Bissau, Lebanon, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Kyrgyzstan, Mali, Niger, Tajikistan, Turkey, West Bank (State of Palestine), most of Indonesia, and in Northern Cyprus. In Albania, Lebanon, and Turkey, there have been discussions about legalizing same-sex marriage.[18][19] Albania, Northern Cyprus and Kosovo also protect LGBT people with anti-discrimination laws.
Its cultural not religious.

It is religious, not cultural. Many of the 10 countries listed by the Washington Post that punish homosexuality by death base their laws on Sharia law; the other countries in your list do not.
Sharia law is religious, not cultural.

And we used to stone adulterers because the bible told us to. It is cultural not religious.

Sharia law is not religious?
Tell us more...
Somehow I doubt the regressed apply these standards to Christians. And for love of god, Christianity is nowhere near as bad as Islam...
Actually, Christians never stoned adulterers. Jews did.
Burning at the stake was big with Christians.
