That church has less than 40 members on the entire planet.
While majorities of muslim nations reject/criminalize/jail/execute homosexuality - we're talking millions upon millions of haters.

I see you're grasping for equivalence - when you should denounce both like I do.

For example, Pew Research has found that overwhelming majorities of the people surveyed in Muslim-majority countries state that society should reject homosexuality. The relevant numbers include 97 percent in Jordan, 95 percent in Egypt, 94 percent in Tunisia, 93 percent in the Palestinian territories, 93 percent in Indonesia, 87 percent in Pakistan, 86 percent in Malaysia, 80 percent in Lebanon, and 78 percent in Turkey.

But it is not just Muslims in Muslim-majority countries who have a very low view of homosexuality. A recent poll, for example, found that 52 percent of British Muslims believe homosexuality should not even be legal, compared with just 5 percent of the general British population who believe this (and it is not implausible to suppose that a significant part of that 5 percent is comprised of Muslims). In addition, many Muslim-majority countries—such as Yemen, Iran, Iraq, Mauritania, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and the United Arab Emirates—have laws that contain strict hudud or punishments of homosexual acts, including penalties like imprisonment, flogging, and execution.

Israel is a gay friendly "mecca" in this hateful region that hillary accepts blood money from.
