[update: Bradlee Dean's prayer has caused an uproar in the Minnesota legislature, with members already falling over themselves to apologize for the incident. Videos, below, show Dean's prayer, plus a Minnesota legislator apologizing for it.]

He's called the execution of homosexuals "moral" and blamed gays for the Holocaust as well. But, as Bradlee Dean's opening prayer, Friday 20th, 2011, for a session of the Minnesota State Legislature shows, extreme, even eliminationist antigay rhetoric is no problem for many prominent Minnesota politicians. As reported by the Minnesota Independent, pastor Bradlee Dean, whose ministry is supported by Congresswoman Michele Bachmann and brings its hard-rock gospel into public schools, stated on a May 15, 2010 radio show,

"Muslims are calling for the executions of homosexuals in America," Dean said on YCR's May 15 radio show on AM 1280 the Patriot. "This just shows you they themselves are upholding the laws that are even in the Bible of the Judeo-Christian God, but they seem to be more moral than even the American Christians do, because these people are livid about enforcing their laws. They know homosexuality is an abomination."
