"Just as a Murderer Can Be Redeemed...

...by the blood of Christ, so can a homosexual." Iris Robinson, the Irish MP who thinks homosexuals should seek psychiatric help, now compares them to murderers.

"I think at the moment there is a witch hunt... urr... to try to curb or actually to stop or prevent Christians speaking out. And I make no apologize for what I said because it is the word of God, but, at the same time, I was very careful in saying that I have nothing against any homosexual. I love them, that is the what the Lord tells me - to love the sinner and not the sin. And, just as a murderer can be redeemed by the blood of Christ, so can a homosexual; and that is the message and that is the word of God; and if anyone takes issue they are taking issue with the word of God."
That was a fast transcript of her remarks in the video. Excuse any errors.
