if there is anybody said it is western then he is wrong ex.ex., the story which is mention about gays in quran is about Loat's people (a prophet in the old days) even before Abraham or Sulaiman) and his people started to became gays, they were in the middle east,in palestine.
so he Ordered LOUT and the few good people to come out from the village because the decision has been made "after a lot of preaching by Loat and tutoring him as a replay of what he was trying to do" .

the location is in the dead see....and the stories says that the Angel of king of Angels raised the village and flipped it and made it in the lowest part of the ground.
