The Bible Is Against Homosexuality
"It grieves me both sides of the question of homosexuality for several reasons. For one there is no balance to perception or trying to fully understand each position. Fear of the question(s) each won't ask of themselves stands on each side. The Christians deny a great deal of their 'sin' and their participation in the terror leashed upon homosexuals through the centuries and homosexuals want an end to the terror of their lives we have visited upon them for reasons we will not try to fathom.
For starters most of the fight for equality was started by white activists. People of color found quiet ways to deal with what was believed to be an affront, and the end result of the brutality of rape, incest and forced incarceration from 1877 onward, and the practices of white men upon Black men during slavery. Either way the blood connection and the love of a child superseded the dogma of protests and activism in the Black American community. Historically, Blacks were and have been long connected to Native American traditions for at least 5,000 years. So, one's sensibilities seeped into the others giving a perspective that found ways to cherish their kin and be angry and disapproving at the same time. To us, the white paradigms always create dysfunction to what can, or has traditionally worked. That is one part of the story." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 2.16.14
