An influential Iranian cleric who is entitled to issue juristic rulings according to the Sharia law, has condemned western lawmakers involved in the decriminalisation of homosexuality, saying those politicians are lower than animals.
Ayatollah Abdollah Javadi-Amoli, an Islamic scholar based in Iran's holy city of Qom, said in a speech among his followers that homosexuals are inferior to dogs and pigs, according to the news website Khabaronline.
"If a society commits a new sin, it will face a new punishment," he said while interpreting Qur'anic verses about prophet Lot whose tribe Isalmic scholars say was punished by God for sodomy. "Problems like Aids did not exist before."
Citing the Qur'an, Javadi-Amoli said politicians who pass laws in favour of homosexuals are lower than animals. "Even animals ... dogs and pigs don't engage in this disgusting act [homosexuality] but yet they [western politicians] pass laws in favour of them in their parliaments."
Homosexuality is punishable by death according to fatwas issued by almost all Iranian clerics. Until recently, Lavat (sodomy for men) was punishable by death for all individuals involved in consensual sexual intercourse.

If that was actually true.....Afghanistan would be devoid of all men .... Well I guess raping little boys isn't consensual

Sounds like this guy is giving Obama some new Menu ideas.
Hmm, should I have the Chow Burger, Manx Meat Pie or the Maddow Meatloaf?

Funny that Obama consumated his marriage with his uncle Abdul. It so many years for him to have kids because he didn’t know that sex involved a woman too.

Even animals ... dogs and pigs don't engage in islamic suicide bombings like muslims do!
