Ahmadinejad @ Columbia -- No Homosexuals in Iran!

On September 24, 2007, Columbia University and its School of International and Public Affairs invited Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to speak on campus as part of Columbia University's World Leaders Forum.In response to a question about Iran's treatment of women and homosexuals, he asserted that women are respected in Iran, and stated "In Iran, we don't have homosexuals, like in your country. We don't have that in our country. In Iran, we do not have this phenomenon. I don't know who's told you that we have it."

I think what he meant was, "We don't have homosexuals...anymore."

This conversation is stupid on both sides.

I don't believe in any of this religious mumbo-jumbo, whether it's Islamic, Christian, Judaic or any other major thing like that.

Are there homosexuals in Iran? Yes. It's a fact of life. They just learn to keep it quiet.

However, I think you are seriously misinformed about the group as a whole.

There are Christians in the southern states that practice incest as well, yet that's not a "norm" for normal Christian believers.
