If you become a Gay Muslim, you might as well flip back to Christianity, because that's where they have Gay and Lesbian Churches, especially designed for people like you to go to...

No such thing as a Gay and Lesbian Mosque...

I agree with all the above comments.
Also, Muslims teach that Jesus was a great prophet, but not the son of God.
So if you worship Jesus as your lord and savior, you will be told to deny him as a Muslim yes, and to listen to him only as you would any other prophet.
According to Muslims, Mohammed is the last and greatest prophet, and the Qur'an is a miracle revelation from God while the bible and the Torah etc. are corrupted texts (even though according to manuscript evidence, the bible we have today has been funamentally unaltered since before the Qur'an was written!)

This is part of an article my pastor posted on our listserve for our upcoming Bible Study. The part that your most interested in is at the bottom. But the anwer is No. You do not have to denounce Christ.
My pastor is trying to teach us that we are not as different as we think.
ISLAM: No God but God
A Study of Other Faiths
Session 2
“Islam” means “submission” to God – it is related to the word for “peace” – and a Muslim is one who has “submitted” to God. Islam is the only major world religion established since the beginning of Christianity. In numbers Islam ranks a close second behind Christianity, with more than a billion adherents in the world.
•What words come to your mind when you think of submission or surrender? Are they positive or negative images? Is submission to God a positive image?
Allah
Allah is the Arabic word that translates into “the God,” and it carries the understanding that God is the one and only God. God is the same God worshiped by Jews and Christians. God is not “Father” but is our Sovereign and Lord. As the Qur’an begins, “Praise be to Allah, the Cherisher and Sustainer of the Worlds; Most Gracious, Most Merciful’ Master of the Day of Judgment. Thee do we worship, and Thine aid we seek.”
There are ninety-nine “beautiful names” of God in the Muslim tradition. Some are positive, loving names: Compassionate, Merciful, Source of Peace, Protector, Creator, Forgiver, Gracious, Generous, Liberal, Wise, Praiseworthy, Amply Beneficient, Acceptor of repentance, Kindly, Enricher, and Patient. Other names warn of God’s righteousness: Judge, Just, Reckoner, Abaser, Avenger, and Depriver. God is the Great in Majesty, Most High, Giver of life and Giver of death, All-Knowing, Guide and Director. All these are preceded with the definite article “The” emphasizing the supremacy of God.
•Make your own list of God’s names, either biblical names or names that describe God’s attributes. How do these names clarify God’s nature for you?
God’s Nature
“Allah is not human, thus He is neither male nor female in the human sense. However, He refers to Himself in the Qur’anic text in the masculine form. None has come before Him, and none will come after Him.
“Engaging in acts that are forbidden, or harram, are sins. We know what is harram from what Allah has revealed to us in the Qur’an and from what the Prophet Muhammad has taught us through his speech, actions, and opinions. Every sane human becomes accountable for their sins once they reach puberty. Children, and those who have no control over their minds, are exempt from judgment. Everyone has two angels accompanying him or her at all times, one on each shoulder. The angel on the right shoulder records one’s good deeds, and the angel on the left shoulder records one’s bad sins.
“Allah’s scales are clearly imbalanced, in favor of humans. For every good deed committed, God will multiply its worth from anywhere between 10 to 700 times. Even if one plans to do a good deed, but for some reason they don’t, they will get the reward of their intentions.
“Sins are not multiplied and are recorded at face value. One has not committed sin if they contemplated doing something bad, but didn’t actually do it. Thus Allah is truly the Most Merciful because if we apply this to the human justice system, there is no such leniency.”
•What do you think of this concept of mercy?
Prophets and Messengers
For Muslims, Jesus is a prophet miraculously born of a virgin. The Qur’an honors Mary, Jesus’ mother, as an example of great faith. Jesus, however, was not crucified; another man substituted for him. They believe that he ascended into heaven. Muslims believe Jesus is a prophet, but not divine or a Son of God. Muslims believe Jesus will return to earth to lead the righteous and destroy the false prophet.
