I think you need to use your rational sense.
Try to step outside the age-old Christian-Muslim conflict for a minute. Judge both religions as objective as you can.
Obviously I will never tolerate any Christian who preaches an eye for an eye, or any other ancient belief that doesn't fit in our modern society. Difference is that Christians for centuries has been allowed a lot of leeway in their faith, the Bible isn't as central as the Quran is.
There are many Christians today who believes that homosexuality is right, and that God is a-okay with it, because Jesus preached that you should show acceptance and love. That's basically their bag.
But at the same time, there are passages in the Bible where homosexuality is condemned.
Leviticus:
If a man also lie with mankind, as he lies with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination, they shall surely be put to death
So Christians have the luxury to interpret their religion all over the place. Due to the fact that they don't claim the Bible to be the words of God.
Rationally view Islam from the outside. What parts of the actual Islam would you consider to be acceptable?
That's the question you need to ask yourself IMO.
Lots of white have Islamophobia. They're opposing Islam, but for the wrong reasons: because it is something different, something unknown.
They should oppose it because Islam, when you examine it, are a set of rules and beliefs that has no place in a modern society.
