The pic which I mentioned about was shown in that conference.As you know in Islam being gay is not acceptable at all and it's a sin.Those two guys were killed in Iran in the name of Islam.

disgusting

I can't even see what it is coz my resolution is set too high (the picture is too small.)

only disgusting??
There's a horrible fact behind that pic.
I heard about that before but I didnt believe it.

I can hardly see anything...
Terrorists?

No.the ones who were going to die were not terrorists.

...Someone died? I don't get it.
What exactly is going on in that picture?

Is it the guy who was held hostage.. and then executed live or something? :confused:

Edited:Well,I just added the whole details to my first post.

Someone gay killed?

unfortunately yes.

Is it in one of the countries where homosexuality has a death penalty? :(

Is it something to do with this?

EDIT: I see you edited your post, so I was kinda right :(

In Iran it is(I think).In Iran so many gay people were killed.And that picture(in the first post) was about Iran.

It's so sad that stuff like this is still happening :(

Can't say I'm surprised, as I already said in another thread - religion the way it has become today is pure shit. I don't think anything will change anytime soon, so Dalai Lama can preach all he wants, I doubt it will change anything.

I agree with you.

True, but it's still important that he says things like this, and that people try to move countries like Iran a direction where human rights are tolerated and respected. It will take time --- and I don't think we'll see the work finished in our lifetime --- but that really just make it much more important to do, so that sometimes the future generations can live like they rightfully want to :)

Yep, where are you kids? - Come on, change the world. :laugh:
No but I agree with you, you gotta start somewhere. I just think that some people have too high hopes (no-one here and not anyone mentioned in this discussion), they want to change their country and the rest of the world in a very short time... I had two friends once who wanted to join a political party as young people, you know, they wanted to make a difference in society and there were lots of students etc. involved already. When I spoke to them about it they said that they wanted to change the world and when I said to them "Don't get your hopes up, you can't do all by yourself" they told me that everything is possible... 2 years later and they still haven't joined. :laugh:

Oh well, good luck to everyone who is trying - one day our grandchildren's grandchildren will maybe look back on ours times and wonder - "Did they really live like THAT?" :flag:

Looks like someone is getting hanged. Is he/she gay? That happened in the states some guy in highschool was hung cause he was gay
