I was wondering where they were as well.

You said, "Seems to me because they can't shut me up by burning me at the stake they just turn off the thread."
An unfortunate side effect of (most) religions is that they have to be "right" and they always have to win, or they feel that they have let God down. They have no sense that a person, not of their faith, or of no faith at all, may be right and may be in possession of some truth that is usable. How much wisdom have we lost because it came out of the "wrong" mouths ???

You and I differ in many, many ways. But I have learned from you. So keep on posting. I look forward to seeing your writings in the future - where I am sure we may clash but it will be in the spirit of debate and nothing else

Here I am!

Truth is Guys I am very busy at this time and I am studying for an important exam. I closed the thread on Gay Marriages because the discussion was getting old and not many persons were responding to it anymore. Like I said when I closed the thread Vicky; "you are free to open a new thread on that same topic if you like". I am not in the business of shutting up people because if I was I would have never started a site like this where All Bahamians Have a Say.

I will try to be more active after this week which is a very hectic one for me.

I hear your excuse Delroy for not posting very much but what about the rest of your christian brothers and sisters. What is their excuse? Are they also busy studying for important exams or have they given up debating us?

Good luck on your exam!

Good to hear from you Delroy. I would also like to say, good luck with your exams - let us know how it went!

Thanks allot guys.

I will be sure to let you all know.

But where is Cedric?
He started this thread and no comments.
Seems as soon as someone make sense and apposes him he disappears.

He started the Bishop Greens comments on Homosexuality and as soon as I opposed him/them they ended the thread and removed it. Delroy ended the 1 on Gay marriage.

Seems to me because they can't shut me up by burning me at the stake they just turn off the thread.

By the way Vicky;
All the threads on Bishop Greene’s Comments – Part 1 - 3 are still open and were never closed or removed.
None of your posts were ever removed from this forum and will never be removed unless it violates the forum rules.

As soon as I am able to I'll post my views on the Virosexuality "Situation" (as some would call what they cannot control or contain).
My views are exceptionally controversial, and quite unique. I've never met anyone that shares the same view.

Take Care and Stay Safe.

As to Bishop Greens comments thread I don’t see it in the Hot Issues any more where do I find it. I have many people asking me what happened to it. If I open a thread is it going to be in the Hot Issues or how will people find it.

Take Care and Stay Safe. looked up this word and can't find it

I would be interested in knowing what "virosexuality" is also. Don't keep us in suspense, o3paretal. Share it with us! :confused: :)

You can find all posts by doing a search or you can navigate the home page and look under the category that you think the thread fits. Bishop Greene’s Comments is under Articles > Religion.

If you thread has allot of replies and views it will be placed under Hot Issues.

I once spoke of this before in another thread. It is increasingly hard nowadays to find individuals on their search for divinity who think for themselves and do not follow. It is ever so annoying when I hear people put to use a word/statement/concept but never take the time to evalute if the sentiments behind such words/statements/concepts are true.
A profound example of this would be the word nigger. Though there is no literary evidence today to support this, road scholars are quite aware that this must be an ignorant person's pronounciation of "Niger" --NY-JER--[or someone of that lay of land] that unfortunately permeated the world by way of what I like to call trendsheep.

Now the term "homos" if anybody took the time to look it up does not mean man or male. It means "same." Therefore, the saturation of the word "homosexual" by C.G. Chaddock is done in ignorance.
What the word "homosexual" really means is, 'an individual who has or prefers intercourse with people, animals and/or whathaveyou that share his gender.'

I would that I would insult no individual (male or female) by applying the concepts/words/statements of trendsheep. I consider myself a reasonable individual with the need to understand my kind in order to be truly a Man. And from what I have encountered in my life experience, those who do engage in sexual intercourse with the same gender, for the most part are not fanciful of animals with like affections.
However, "vir" as in 'virago' would be the more truthful root to describe a man who has sexual relations with another man and has his limits drawn as such.
"Lesbians" acquired their name through poetic license, and it is only as an artist that I tolerate that term.

Though, all in all, the people of which I speak have been labeled in ignorance- the same way today that some people still believe that they are "black" or "white." I consider them every bit as human as myself, and it is to that standard I shall keep them until I have a problem with them.

Now, with the above info said, I wish to share my views on the occurences. Allow me to start by saying this.:
As a human, [whether male/female/single/married] the sexual orientation of ANY other human being, (save my wife, any animal that protests or any child of course) is
none
of my
damned
business.

I feel strongly about that, very much so and I go to great lengths to keep that which is sacred to me...sacred. Because I'm aware that what is sacred to me, may or may not be sacred to another.

Not that I need the UN to tell me this either, but I believe that I am due some fundamental rights. As an individual with a life to live and my own personal world to put in order- it is up to ME and SOLELY ME whom I accept in ANY society. I am not a law obeying citizen, however, I am a law ABIDING citizen.

If, for example, any of Vicky's children were unconscious from being underwater for too long, I would administer CPR and do my best to revive them-all the while knowing full well it is against the law to practice medicine without a license.
I do not hesitate to use sound judgement even if it renders me a criminal or lifeless.

That said, I don't concur with "gay rights" unless it is the opposite of "melancholy lefts." I am an advocate for human rights-end of story for me. The last mistakes we need to make as humans in the name of progress, is making the Law our next religion and seperatist laws.

Virosexuals, Homosexuals, Politicians, White Seperatists, Black 'Supremy-cysts' (just to name a few)...are ALL human. However, they all have alternate lifestyles from myself, and as such I desire not to be supportive of any of them in their intimate lifestyle efforts, because that's what makes them unique and individuals. (Yes, I'm aware that this can be contradictory-ESPECIALLY with the Politicians).

I feel there are many given ways a man or woman can present themselves as respectful humans in equipoise with myself, and for those ways I am ready with acceptance, tolerance and isopraxism. However, and this could very well be my baser nature speaking, but I find it extremely insulting when certain groups/individuals develop the line of thought of, "I am going through governmental channels to MAKE you respect me and to MAKE you accept my [in this case] sexuality as a rudimentary part of your reality and future whether you like it or not."

I care not of respective sexualities, save those of my wife. As an adult, I care not for "playground tactics" of the "I ga tell" syndrome. They will not work positively with me, and will do nothing but upset, anger or madden me. If you've taken it upon yourself to circumvent me altogether to go to the government (of all institutions) because you've decided I'm not rational enough to solve any potential issue between you and I soundly, then do so, but don't come back to me expecting empathy.

I trust I have stuck a human cord with this point and thus I ride not upon the sagital, but stand by my lonely.

If an individual feels the need/desire to project his/her sexuality onto me and/or assume that his/her 'evolutionary prominent sexuality' is so strong that it gets in the way of my sound judgement, then we have nothing more to say to each other. For you have rejected the respect which I was willing to give to you as a fellow human.

I suspect, all humans are, on average (except for the anomalies of nymphomaniacs and satyrists) just as much sexual creatures as the next. I don't make it a habit of having intercourse be the focal point of any relativity with humans other than my wife. As it is intimate and sacred for me. Your respective sexualities are your concern, force it on me and we have a problem-for I consider that rape. I respect your unique and individual quips and foibles before even meeting you, so I encourage the manners: 'treat me like an adult individual and I shall do the same to you readily.'

For the most part, I've taken into account all that I have encountered in this life and put together that personal policy. Though it may offer gainsay to how sound a human I am, it stands, and it works...for me.

Take Care and Stay Safe and BE HUMANE.

Hi o3parietal very well said I would need to get my dictionary out to read it again.
I have some problem with your break down of the word homosexual.
Homos exual na that’s not right homo sexual now that’s right and homo means man.
Now Lesbian comes from the inhabitants of the Greek isle of Lesbos.

Let see if I get what you are saying. You believe in treating all humans the same and with respect as long as they do the same. Cool

You also believe in equal human rights under the law even if the law is unequal?????!!! Also those that the law deals with unequally should not try to change it as it might change your life.

Yes, I agree. But no, I didn't break it down that way. I'm sorry, I should've been clearer.

"Homos" is the root word where "homo" comes from. "Homo" is Modern Latin for "man" but it's more like slang. For it's related to "humus." It's why we're called "human."

Allow me to provide a live example:
It would be like saying "dreadsexuality."

Bahamians today (Modern Dialect) would understand this to mean --sex with 'dreads'-- one of many terms in the Bahamian vernacular for 'males'.

But to say "dreadsexuality" using the correct root of the word "dread"...

--- from the Old English word [b]ondrædan "counsel or advise against," also "fear," from on- "against," second element of the word (drædan) is of uncertain origin; the prefix "on" wore off after the 12th century.

It really means, 'sex with fear.' Consider it a case for semantics. It may seem a petty point to make but...

Now suppose, if you will, centuries down the road (if the human race hasn't blown itself to smithereans by that time) a member of the Council protests, "Sex with people who have Dreadlocks is evil." And so all people who have dreadlocks are castigated simply because they are lumped together with men who sleep with men. "Dreadsexuailty."

Ignorance evolves. As it has today.



Let see if I get what you are saying. You believe in treating all humans the same and with respect as long as they do the same. Yup.

You also believe in equal human rights under the law even if the law is unequal?????!!! Also those that the law deals with unequally should not try to change it as it might change your life.

Yes, I believe in equal human rights. I don't live by the law. It's imperfect. I feel I don't need the law to tell me to respect my fellow human beings. It just so happens that the standards and personal beliefs I have doesn't conflict with the law. When it does, then I guess that'll make me a criminal. Though in some cases the law does protect me, in others it leaves me naked and raped.
