We are getting off-topic, however, I do not see what I called Christian heritage of the West being controversial nor not applicable.
Nobody, I am aware of, is for example having referendums/debates over Christian architecture being build in their cities. Nor there is problem with shaking hands or covering face. Celebrating Christmas. IMO its the traditions, with religious background, that conflict most. I mean what is to be Muslim or Christian? If they follow orders .. In the OP case, do they or do they not follow orders when they open mosque to LGBT? And we will be here forever.
Indeed, despite being of some heritage, society changes and indeed towards secularisation. This is due to economy, education, democracy and public discourse, globalization etc. So the question probably is, is Islam capable of lets say reforming.
