DESMOND CYRIL
For me, I think homosexuality is an inimical disaster. It’s a nasty thing to do. It’s filthy and uncultured. It’s a “terrible and unnatural phenomenon”. The least we can do is to condemn this “abnormal nonsense”. It’s disheartening and unnerving to note however that there are some people who actually advocate this “social disorder”.
From all standards of human imagination, I can’t simply fathom this absolute ineptitude, which the society has become so inundated with. Even animals do not practice this lecherous abnormality.
One doesn’t need to be “stainless” to talk about the moral decadence that has engulfed our society because the standards of morality have become so low to the extent of a probable extinction.
Most importantly the proliferation of Homosexuality cannot by any sphere of imagination be condoned. It’s uncultured, unethical, "unchristian", "unmoslem" and doesn’t even meet the basic standards of humanity.
It’s an indictment on our social and religious institutions that this social disorder is beginning to gain grounds. It is one thing to say the act and practice of homosexuality is illegal and another to say it’s antonymous to our religious beliefs (Christianity, Islam or even African Indigenous religion). All these religions ideally oppose homosexuality comprehensively and absolutely.
It’s stupefying however that those who commit this “unnatural atrocity” are members of the various religions.
One of the reasons why I detest this indecency and uncouth behavior is the obvious risk it poses to our society. How can a man marry a man? Or a woman shamelessly marry another woman. Indeed this is disgusting to say the least. It’s an act of gross stupendous abnormality which is in itself an affront to our societal values.
The most infuriating aspect of this ludicrous attitude is the creeping in of religious influence. Certain churches have started solemnizing unions between homosexuals and ordaining them as priests.
In spite of my initial proposition of not entirely taunting and “coming hard at” religious entities, I beg to repudiate this stance. I dare to say that their(religious groups who support homosexuality) actions contradict the Bible in all respects and casts a slur on the Christian faith. Without mincing words, I state unambiguously that they are obviously wrong.
Some people whom I’m sure are not well in tuned with the basic principles of morality and the intricacies of the bible make the spurious and erroneous arguments to reiterate their assertions, citing most importantly John 8:7 to buttress their point of supporting homosexuality.
I guess the "homosenseless", sorry homosexuals don’t even like the kind of repugnant name they (I don’t even like it myself) have and the derogatory impact it has on the society hence they change their names to gay (which means joy, merry, happiness etc), creating a rather erroneous impression of themselves.
One might wonder the kinds of orientation which prompts people to be homosexuals or “gay”. In essence, I’ve come out with the three kinds of homosexuals in the society.
Those who are outwardly male but posses female genetic makeup and psychological characteristics and vi
ce versa.
Those influenced by the pressures of peers
Those who do it by their own free will, relegating all essence of values to the background (Probably instigated by the devil).
These I believe are the total makeup of the homosexual society. It’s a comprehensive one if you ask me. It caters for all the perverse influences that propel this act.
It had been scientifically proven by some American Psychologists that Homosexuality has nothing to do with abnormality or malfunctioning of the brain. I’m tempted to believe this assertion because I unequivocally hold to the proposition that homosexuality is a way of life, an illicit culture, which unfortunately has been diffused into our values and norms.
The Bible is quite evasive about Homosexuality but on some few occasions, it unambiguously and categorically stipulated how the LORD detests homosexuality. Let’s now take a trail to Bible (for me, the Bible an essential yardstick to measure what is wrong or not)……..the bible in spite of the many spurious interpretations given to it cannot be sidelined in this sensitive issue)
In 2Peter 1:4, the Bible clearly states “Through these he has given us his great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires”.
For me the bible couldn’t be any clearer, what could be the evil desires if it’s not homosexual inclusive. It doesn’t mean that its only homosexuality that the bible is referring to but at least it is one of them.
In his epistle to the Corinthians, Paul enumerated in clear categorical terms (1 Cor 6:9-11), “Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived …….neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male Prostitutes nor homosexuals offenders will inherit the kingdom of God. And that was how some of you were but you were washed".
I don’t think its practically relevant to expound on this because it’s obvious and categorical
Romans 1:18-32 states, “the wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all godlessness and wickedness of men, who suppress the truth by their wickedness”. This verse outlines the consequences for those who decide to be oblivious of the truth and inadvertently twist the bible to satisfy their own ferocious and illicit desires.
The book of Lev. 18:22 and 20:15 paints a vivid picture of Homosexuality, it reads “do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman, that is detestable"..This couldn’t be any clearer……
Genesis 19 elaborated on how Lot would rather, her daughters were sexually exploited than allowing his visitors who were males from any sexual intimacy with the men of Sodom who attacked his house.
Never in the Bible had same sex ever being endorsed, it is a perverse and illicit thing to do and had never being in the order of nature.
Indeed in Genesis 2:24, the Bible says, “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife and they will become one”. This inexplicable peril of homosexuality had never being affirmed by the bible.................................to be contd.
