Iris Robinson, Northern Irish politician, wife of the First Minister of Northern Ireland, Democratic Unionist and fine, upstanding member of the community has found herself in a spot of bother.

In 2008 Iris got a name for herself when she expressed the view that homosexuals were an "abomination" and could be "cured" by psychiatric therapy. As an evangelical Christian, she takes the Biblical prohibition (Leviticus 18:22-30) rather seriously (whether she also agrees with the Biblical requirement to execute homosexuals isn't clear). In the NI Assembly, Iris was heard to say:

"There can be no viler act, apart from homosexuality and sodomy, than sexually abusing innocent children"
- Hansard

So why does Northern Iris have a bee in her bonnet about men having sex with each other? Could the lady be protesting too much? As it happens, yes. At the same time as all this anti-gay posturing, Iris was in fact having a clandestine, extramarital (albeit heterosexual) affair. Could it get worse? Yes - her lover was a 19-year-old. Iris was shagging a teenager. Is she auditioning for a remake of The Graduate? Here's to you, Mrs Robinson.

A whole grubby scandal is now unravelling about an illicit £50,000 loan to her toyboy; Iris, racked with guilt, apprently attempted suicide.

No wonder she's feeling guilty - Leviticus is quite clear about breaking the seventh commandment:

"And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death."
-Leviticus 20:10

Iris and her toyboy are apparently due the same fate of homosexuals: death. Just fancy that! Fortunately, Jesus loves her more than she will know...

Save Ulster from Sodomy? Save Sodomites from Iris!
