There is no difference between Islam and Chistianity regarding these if you talk about the religions themselves. No difference.
At their core they do share a lot of similarities since Islam took a lot of aspects from Judaism and Christianity.
However, in most Muslim countries you will have a hard time if you are part of the LGBT. In western countries that won't be a problem. Sure a few eyebrows may be raised in certain circles, but law prevents anyone from acting on it.

True. Western countries and Muslim countries are very different in terms of LGBT acceptance, but there is no difference in terms of christianity and Islam.
You know why western countries are more and more accepting? Because Christianity rapidly declined and fewer and fewer people take Jesus/Bible serious.

People in Western countries, especially Europe, had to fight bloody wars against the almighty churches to get their rights and freedom. Now they pushed church into a corner where it is just a free-time activity and not the ruling authority about peoples life. That process took like 500 years.
Islam has yet to undergo such a process where people say well, religion is just your personal thing, don't bother other with it, and don't let religion decide about the law and constitution of your country.

I agree.
This is why I said western countries are far ahead in terms of LGBT (and other rights such women's rights), but it is silly to indicated Chrisitianity is more tolerant. It simply is not.
in 2017, all religions are redundant, or at least do more harm than good. People did and are doing so many evils things under the name of religion.
