@islandgal246 | March 4, 2011 at 2:53 PM | . I have nothing to do with Zoe frothing at the mouth. He/she does it naturally. I believe that in medical circles they call it rabies.

Sorry, I’ve miss-spelled “Greek”. A Freudian slip perhaps?

No one has found a gay gene… the cause of homosexuality remains speculation.

UK does allow gay couple to adopt. Children raised by gay couples show no differences than those raised by heterosexual parents

Brutality against MoBay gays

THE EDITOR, Sir: Just after midnight on Sunday, February 20, 2011, four police pickups and a van normally used to transport prisoners descended on the only gay club along the Hip Strip in Montego Bay. About 20 heavily armed policemen jumped from the vehicl…es, aggressively accosting patrons, kicking in doors, beating and pistol-whipping indiscriminately, and chasing everyone from the venue. All the while, the officers hurled homophobic slurs which encouraged patrons of other clubs nearby to join in the melee by throwing bottles, stones and other missiles as individuals fled for their lives. One patron described it as a mob scene, and another who asked a policeman, "If this is how you, as a law-enforcement officer, treat us, how do you expect other people to behave?" was rewarded with several kicks for his effrontery. He later took refuge for several hours in an abandoned building. At least 10 persons were reported to have been treated at hospital for injuries sustained during the raid, while others decided to nurse their wounds at home. This latest attack follows a similar one in Kingston in early February when police, not wearing badges, raided a gay club, pointing guns at patrons and shining powerful flashlights in their faces. On neither occasion did police disclose the purpose of the raids, but they clearly have one intent, namely, to intimidate and remind lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgender and intersex individuals that their kind is not welcome in Jamaica, and they certainly don’t have the right to assemble and socialise peacefully.

Zoe you are a mental case. I will call a taxi for you , destination Black Rock!

Issac Newton published “Principia” in 1687 in which he presented the three universal laws of motion. Did the passage of time invalidate all of his work?

If humankind is to praise God with one voice, our creation as male and female sets before us as task; realization of the community within which and for which we are created. Only as men and women together* in harmony and oneness, do we become full human and realize the divine image. This happens, in part and paradigmatically, in marriage, of a man and a woman.

The sexual differentiation is, initially and fundamentally, biological; in order that the image* of God, in which we were created, may come to fruition in a community of those who are united, yet different.

The family, therefore, formed when marriage gives rise to children is itself both a biological and historical comunity. Through the family, Dad and Mum, we are embedded in the world of nature, as God intended, and are marked by lines of kinship and descent, and are from birth individuals within a communal bond. Hence, our sense of self is deeply involved in the biological bond. Parents are not simply reproducing themselves; but, when from their oneness, they beget a new human being, equal to them, Father and Mother, in dignity, that act testifies to the truth that by God’s blessings such mutal love can be a creative, productive, community.

Therefore, the family unit of Father, Mother, children is also a community upon which is LAID a cultural, historical task; transmission of a way of life.

Whenever, this God ordained structure is severed, disrupted, infringed upon by diviant homosexualist trends, the results are devastating to the children, regardless of if the resesarch is hundreds of years ago, 20 years ago, or most recently, as when ever the truth* of God’s ordained structure is not adhered to, any given society, be it ancient or modern, will gradually disintegrate, with all kinds of socio/ecomonic, and political problems!

@ Pat
Welcome to the Club. We are free thinkers. Glad to hear you had a Happy Birthday! in Bim the land of fish and coucou! They are many Pisces here on BU some who are very outspoken. Not me Douh ! Pisces are also very talented and creative people and usually are a little ahead of the game !

Zoe, you are beynbd belief.

How could people without TV, telephones, etc., know of one little man who lived in the Middle East, separated from them by several oceans? Do you now see why you get knocked for not thinking analytically? How do you know that the Aztecs and Incas were not worshipping True Gods? Are you the Big Boss Engineer Creator?

Zoe, please go back to bed.

Then let us talk about the rampant homosexuality in Israel !!
Do you deny this Zoe?!?
Will they suffer the wrath of God as a nation just like the others?
@ Pat…
Glad you had a great time in Bim and the birthday….I celebrate for the month but my day is the 13th. I am in NYC for a while now so I will do it here as I am reaching a nice milestone.

@Techie
i alwas thought we had something in common. the number 13, Also and Hopi .I think kiki is a Pisces! Good people aren’t we!

Techie, you’re up late in the belly of the beast. Be careful what you post over there as they’ll be checking certain key words!

Thank goodness that we are all created with the ability to develop in various ways. Life would be very dull without our differences and the character development needed to come to terms with those differences.

Some people believe that all that we know now is all there is and ever will be, religions like empires also fall and fade. At one time the universal (Catholic Church) was all powerful, it has been fragmented and losing souls daily.

Man made evolution is called revolution and comes about partly because of ‘new’ ways of doing things, which is mostly adaptations of the old way of doing things.

Peace

@ Zoe…

Have you ever been married and divorced?

If yes ….why didn’t you apply this logic to your life?
If no…. what do you know?

So we can hypothesise from the above that Zoe is not a queen, but an empress.

@Zoe. The “bilge” I choke on is the bovine excretions of the self-appointed “life”. I don’t expect you to understand me. Never mind, poor soul, most others do. So, a happy cut and paste to you this fine day. May Ctrl C and Ctrl V never let you down and may the bird of paradise fly up any orifice that you have exposed to it, tiara and all. Pace.

Many civilizations only failed after they were introduced to Christianity.

Really?

Did not the Egyptian, Babylonian, Medes and Persians. Assyrians and Greeks predate Christianity? Duh!
Nothing has changed on BU.

Page 10 of The Advocate.

Ok, how about the Romans, all of the civilizations in the Americas for a start, and I am sure I can find a few in western and southern Africa if I tried… If you look at the times that these empires fell, they all occurred after they were introduced to Christianity.

But before we get too side tracked, the point the I was making is that you can correlate any number of thing with the rise and fall of civilizations, but correlation does not equal causation, and I do not think that it is possible to show causes for civilization fall, especially given the fragmented and biased sources that we rely upon for knowledge about those civilizations.

Using correlative arguments from history is often away of hiding bias.. people see patterns where they want to see them… as was pointed out in a very interesting article on BU recently.

BTW, Duh, Historic, Apostolic, orthodox Christianity, and especially from the Reformation period onwards, secured freedom in religion, and as a legitimate consequence, also intellectual, political and civil freedom, unlike any other era before, as all ancient civilizations, were awash in Paganism, abuse of woman, child sacrifices, homosexuality, temple prostitutes, both male and female, any wonder that they came to runiation, and crumbled, when, God’s Word, the Bible, with its instruction and comfort became accessible to all.

This is the truimphant vindication of true, Apostolic Christianity, as it spread to other nations, who were in bonadge to ancient Paganism, in its varied and manifested forms, which kept its people in spiritual darkness, immoral debauchery, as light, always disples darkness, life always displaces death, and ignorance gives way to knowledge!

Duh, Paganistic and Polytheistic civilizations, would inevitably fail, as they always do, as Almighty God’s righteous judgment comes upon them, in the face of His Truth, the Bible.

Further, whatever genocide and enslavement of any people, during the spread of Christianity, was NOT committed at the hands of genuine believers, but, by those charlatans who falsely professed Christianity, using ‘religion’ NOT Christianity, as a mask to enslave others.

Duh, I don’t expect you to fathom this reality, having not consulted the libraries of the informed, hence, your ignorance (lacking knowledge, facts, evidence) renders you in a state of continued blindness!

You must stop lighting a candle to see the Sun!

The following historic facts, though they vividly contrast Protestant, genuine Christianity, to Heathenistic Roman Catholicism, nevertheless, bring home the point of the liberating aspects of genuine Christianity.

“Compare for proof Protestant Germany under Wiliam I., with Roman-Catholic Germany under Maximilian I.; England under Queen Victoria, with England under Henry VII.; Calvinistic Scotland and Lutheran Scandinavia in the ninteenth century, with Roman Scotland and Scandinavia in the fifteenth. Look at the origin and growth of free Holland and free North America. Contrast England with Spain of the present day; Prussia with Austria; Holland with Portugal; the United States and Canada with older Mexico and Peru or Brazil. Consider the teeming Protestant literature in every department of learning, science and art; and countless Protestant churches, schools, colleges universities, charitable institutions and missionary stations scattered all over the globe. Surely, the Reformation can stand the test: ‘by their fruit ye shall know them.” (History of The Christian Church, Volume VII, p.260).

Obviously the seeds of this great period of Modern Christianity, that brought such liberty to the world, through the preaching and teaching of God’s Word, the Bible, and its fruit, to mankind, simply cannot be refuted, as the results were/are all there to see.

However, we are NOW in the era, season, of End-Time prophetic consummation, with the rise of abased secularization, humanism, atheism, cultural relativism, homosexualism, Islamic Jihadism, and the list goes on, with mankind throughout the world in Crisis, groping in spiritual darkness, and folly, with the Prophetic time-table, as declared in God’s Word, the Bible, all coming to pass exactly as HE said it would!

Duh, No, we are not called to ever rejoice at any SIN, and God did NOT ordain homosexuality, in His Omnscience, He knew the beginning from the end, having given mankind ‘freedom’ of choice, to either follow Him, OR, the ways of Sin, that lead to destruction and death.

Because we are told and warned that mankind’s sinful bent, will increasingly get worse, as it is now happening, and persection of Christians will intensify, and it is, we are incouraged to Lift up our hearts and lives toward the Glorious Second Coming our our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen & Amen!!!

Zoe, it is truly impressive how clearly you know the mind of God and his/her intentions.

So for further clarification, in the pairs of countries listed above it is not clear from the quoted text which is the “good” situation and which is the “bad” situation… i.e. which is supposed to be better England under Queen Victoria or England under Henry VII?

Was that real GP commenting on MArch 6 2011/11.08pm Inquiring minds want to know!
