Here's another question, our soldiers aren't allowed to take Bibles when they fight in Muslim countries, because Bibles are illegal there.
Being gay is also illegal in Muslim countries (they hang them you know), so gays won't be allowed there either?

that's only half true.
last year the military ordered Bibles burned, but they were bibles printed in the local afghan languages potentially used for proselytizing the natives.
Bibles that the locals (generally) can't read are fine, and they can't be handing them out to the native pops, either.
There might be some special agreement with Saudi Arabia .
