Let's see, was it last year or the year before that the People's Republic of China enacted a series of laws against homosexuality?

IIRC the Amnesty International website has a section featuring the legal status of homosexuality in a variety of countries. I think you'll find that a couple of muslim countries punish homosexuality with the death penalty and a number of others provide jail sentences. http://www.amnestyusa.org/LGBT_Human...&n2=36&n3=1040

Interesting. Homosexuality is illegal in the less modern muslim countries, but also in India, Sri Lanka and Nepal, countries which are neither Christian nor Muslim. While technically legal in atheist China some homosexual have been persecuted to such an extent that they were forced to seek asylum in other countries. They're also banned from some jobs, like teaching.
