I'm fairly certain its been known forever that he is a homosexual and for quite a few years that he wants to ban religion. They still had the concert scheduled and already knew these things. So it being canceled is either him claiming Jesus was gay or recently voicing his opinion calling for muslim countries to allow gays to have sexual freedoms.

Well, either way, I'm fine with him being banned for it. Might as well, since the USA, banned - in a way, Franklin Graham from speaking at the Pentagon.

Right. That is what the article said. Either way, the headlines felt Muslims were making an outcry that focused on Jesus. Regardless of how misdirected their solution was, and all it implies about control, they were heard and the headlines noted their thoughts about Jesus. The church needs to be heard with the correct solution.
