"Shas Chairman Eli Yishai apparently refuses to acknowledge the fact that homosexuality is not perceived as an incurable disease in modern Israel. In an interview aired on the Knesset Channel Wednesday evening, Yishai made his stance clear by saying that "homosexuals and lesbians are sick people."

"I wish them a speedy recovery," Yishai said when asked about his position on Israel's homosexual community.

"Up to a few years ago, they would be exempt from military service. It's clearly a disease. I didn’t determine this, the science of medicine did. It's a disease. The Torah talks about its severity, and I wish them a speedy recovery. I'm not hiding it," he added.

When asked if he believes homosexuals and lesbians should be treated in order to "cure" them, Yishai made it clear that "I see it as a medical problem."

"You are denying the truth. Up to a number of years ago, homosexuals would be defined as people with a medical problem. Ask all doctors, who for dozens of years saw it as a medical problem," he said."

2. Kinda like if you asked doctors years ago about

witches: If you threw them in the river they'd have said, "Witches float."

the Devil's mark: If you look closely enough at vthe skin you can see where demons have been feeding off the possessed.

Severe Headache: Hit the skull hard with a hammer. That'll cure the headache.

Doctor's used to believe lots of things that they know are untrue now.

4. Actually, not all of that is false;

hitting your skull hard enough will indeed cure a headache :)
