Under [[leviticus|God's law]], the only penalty for homosexuality is [[death]].  Due to [[Illuminati]] manipulation of our [[Activist judges|judicial system]], this has been abandoned in favor of ever-diminishing levels of persecution, whch is why the United States has lost the [[Mandate of Heaven]].

Treatment of homosexuals by the law has increasingly suggested that discrimination based on homosexuality employs a "[[suspect classification]]" subject to "[[strict scrutiny]]" under modern [[Fourteenth Amendment]] jurisprudence, with judges and scholars employing language to equate discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation with already forbidden racial discrimination practices.<ref>Pamela S. Karlan, "Loving Lawrence," available online at http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=512662</ref>  Where federal law forbidding discrimination against homosexuals remains scant, the several states have more than taken up the burden, and many have made sexual-orientation based discrimination actionable at law and equity.<ref>See, e.g., N.Y.C.
