Balaam's Talking Donkey: I've seen televangelists say homosexuality was a product of the sexual revolution.
How did the Bible condemn that which did not exist? Truly a mystery. Like the mystery of the Trinity.

You would think the president of Iran would have access to YouTube and all the other places broadcasting videos of homosexual teens being publicly hanged in Iran.
I think "no homo" line was closer to something believed on the campus of Bob Jones University. Relatedly, there is a homosexual man who teaches literature at Cornell who got his BA at Liberty University (Jerry Falwell's fine school).

To be honest i don't think Bible condems homosexuals, it just condems deviant sexual behaviour such as multiple partners and such, but nowdays PEOPLE translate the Bible however they want, often to suit their own views, so you get all sorts confusions. I don't believe that two adults, who truly love each other and are in a monogamus relationship with each other can be a sin.

More like the idealized America of the 1600's.

The Iranians I know, think Amadinejad is a wacko'. I don't think he represents the thinking of the average, educated Iranian.
I'd say he has more in common with Bush than people think.

Yet there were/are plenty of gay people in both countries.
As I understand it, Islam allows gay coupling among men until men are deemed old enough to marry. Early 20's.

It does sound like the fantasy world of many Christians. They just like claim that their is any gays because they don't think of them as human beings.

Slight difference: You could be murdered in Iran for it.
In America, sin used to be shameful. That is quickly changing.

I don't know that Ike ever claimed that "no homosexuals live in the US".
