The town of Auburn, Nebraska,USA; population 3,385, is poised to
become a footnote to US legal history after one of its residents filed a
lawsuit against all the world’s gay people and asked a federal judge to rule
that homosexuality is a sin. 
In a seven-page, handwritten filing, Sylvia Driskell claimed
to be an ambassador of God and said she was disappointed that Nebraska had
become “compliant in the lewd behaviour of some people”.
“Homosexuality is a sin and... homosexuals know it is a sin
to live a life of homosexuality. Why else would they have been hiding in the
closet,” she wrote, 
according to the Omaha World-Herald newspaper.

Ms Driskell, who quotes the bible in her suit, could not be
contacted on Wednesday. An official at the US District Court told The
Independent that the case had been assigned to Judge John Gerrard. It would be
up to him to decide how or whether to proceed with the case.
Ms Driskell finished her suit by stating: “It is because of the lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassion fails not.”
- “The woman does not have an attorney and she has not asked
for an attorney,” said the official, who asked not to be named.
