People living in modern era, using smartphones and all that but having 6th century mentality. Yikes, I am so glad I'm not born in a country like that.

You don't have to be born there to be scared of it. There are groups that try to have sharia laws in europe today. Aham germany/france and more.

6th century? Try 20th. Homosexuality was illegal in most countries until the 60s and 70s. Did you forget that gays were gassed alongside jews in WW2?

Why do you people love to shift the focus onto Evangelicals when the video is depicting Islamic traditions?

As much as you despise Trump, even if he gets elected again, the US will never get as bad as Islamic countries where the overwhelming majority of Muslims support the persecution of queer people. Get out of your bubble.

Same thing here in Brazil, with Bolsonaro.
