Again:
The actions of even 10s of millions doesn't give you a reason to judge all 2+ billion.
It's based on "religious law" by the interpretation of extremists.
Something shared with the other two Abrahmic religions and multiple others.
But at this point you are being explicitly bigoted and I'm going to keep reporting it. So it would be in your best interest to go spread that shit elsewhere.
Thats the problem here: i don't see any countries where laws are based on the bible and interpreted in a way that legitimizes murder of minorities based on their gender and orientation, and especially not such a widespread usage of sharia law.
You can educate me if you know of any that do so currently, and i know that not everything is peachy in all countries (especially since Trump 2 in the US), but by and large this behaviour is not socially accepted and for sure our judges don't condemn anyone to death for being gay.
Sharia is fundamentally incompatible with democracy, and also in my view incompatible with human rights. And you are falling victim to the "no true scotsman" fallacy - denying that Muslims stance towards LGBT in general is absolutely abhorrent and often deadly where they have power doesn't help anyone.
