Aww, Israel has them too! Right-wing nuts say earthquakes cause by homos

Of course they are! From Andrew Sullivan:

An Israeli MP has blamed parliament's tolerance of gays for earthquakes that have rocked the Holy Land recently. Shlomo Benizri, of the ultra-Orthodox Jewish Shas Party, said the tremors had been caused by lawmaking that gave "legitimacy to sodomy".[...] He called on lawmakers to stop "passing legislation on how to encourage homosexual activity in the state of Israel, which anyway brings about earthquakes."

I mean, the guy's name is Shlomo. Maybe he's still bitter about being made fun of as a kid: "Shlomo the homo!"

Or maybe gays really do cause earthquakes. If so I want to learn how.
