Bellevue Pastor Asks Members to Vote Against Equality | Memphis Gaydar

Bellevue Pastor Asks Members to Vote Against Equality | Memphis Gaydar

I don't understand why anyone who considers themselves a disciple of Jesus Christ would be a part of Bellevue Baptist Church, it is a scourge on Memphis and promotes anti-gay bigotry, as well as theocracy. Their pastor is a hypocrite for covering up the sexual abuse of a minor among other things. Shame on Bellevue, and shame on anyone who supports that den of iniquity.

Iran Hangs Three Convicted of "Sodomy"

Three men executed in Iran for Sodomy


Iran Human Rights, September 5: According to the reports from Iran, six people were hanged in the Karoun prison of Ahvaz (southwest of Iran) early Sunday morning September 4th.
The state run Iranian news agency ISNA reported that three of those executed were sentenced to death by the Ahvaz revolution court, convicted of "unlawful" acts based on the articles 108 and 110 of the Iranian Islamic penal code. Articles 108 and 110 of the Iranian Islamic Penal code are part of the chapter covering the punishment of "Hadd" for "sodomy". Article 108 says: "Sodomy (or Lavat) is sexual intercourse between men”, and article 110 says:”Punishment for sodomy is killing; the Sharia judge decides on how to carry out the killing".

Two teenagers were hung in 2005 for rape and sodomy. (Iranian officials are believed to accuse gays of rape to make executions more acceptable to the public and international community.)
