"The State carries the power of the sword, that is, the power to prohibit [homosexual] conduct with physical penalties, such as confinement and even execution. It must use that power to prevent the subversion of children toward this lifestyle."

"Brute beasts ... part of a vile and satanic system [that] will be utterly annihilated, and there will be a celebration in heaven."
— Jerry Falwell, on homosexuals






THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE:





Two gay Iranian teenagers - one 18, the other believed to be 16 or 17 - were executed this week for the "crime" of homosexuality.
