It appears that Dominica’s first participation in a winter Olympic event is the not the only thing that is grabbing the attention of the international press and by extension, the world.
The island’s record on gay rights has been brought into focus with website ‘policymic.com’ ranking it third among six countries taking part in the games with worse gay rights record than Russia.
According to the site, which features a photo of prime minister, Roosevelt Skerrit, the punishment for gays in Dominica is ten years in prison.
“This tiny Caribbean island made headlines a few years ago when two American men were arrested for having sex on a gay cruise in view of the port, but the focus has since turned to schools,” the website said. “The education minister created a task force in 2012 with the purpose of “investigating and identifying the root causes of deviance and the increasing incidents of homosexuality among [the] student population.” The country’s prime minister, meanwhile, has said that decriminalizing same-sex relations is out of the question for the “foreseeable future.””
The site stated that there is a ‘silver lining,’ in which a “gay rights group has managed to convince Dominica’s highest Catholic official to renounce anti-sodomy laws as a promoter of violence. The statement successfully caught the attention of the fervently religious society.”
In March 2012 two gay men from Southern California, who pleaded guilty to the charge of “Indecent Exposure,” were fined EC$2,400.00 each.
A local court heard that the men were seen on the balcony of the cruise ship, Celebrity X Cruises, naked and fondling each other.
The matter was widely publicized in the international press.
In May 2013, PM Skerrit told state-owned DBS Radio that buggery laws on the island’s books will remain.
The 2014 Winter Olympic Games are being held in Sochi, Russia.
Dominica is represented by Gary di Silvestri and his wife, Angelica Morrone di Silvestri. They are competing in cross country skiing.
Policymic.com describes itself as a “platform to make our voices heard.”
“We reach millions of people with our high-quality, personal analysis on the news, policy, and pop culture that’s changing our world,” the site said.
To advocate for homosexuality you must close your eyes and ears to the truth and say by your actions the facts mean nothing to you.
God gave us only one model – or one blue print – for marriage. That is the union of one man and one woman until they are parted by death. Matthew 19:4-6. Later people devised other types of relationships such as polygamy but God never approved of these.
However, religion is not the only reason we oppose homosexuality.
Homosexuality is an unhealthy lifestyle. Gay people have more mental health issues than straight people.
They tend to suffer more from depression. They have a higher rate of alcoholism. With no flesh and blood family of their own they experience greater loneliness in their senior years. They have a higher suicide rate.
Statistics show they have a shorter life span.
Homosexuals are more prone to violence. A number of studies have shown that 66% – 67% of serial killers have been homosexuals.
Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill…
Its a shame and disgrace to the human race. I am not a racist but when some people have Social and Economical power they can push their will down in other poor people mouth. Homosexual is wroung.
As a married, Christian heterosexual, I still continue to struggle with intermittent lustful thoughts and behavior. I have always acknowledged my sins and continue to ask God to continue to help me with my self control and fleshly transgressions. Others, including homosexuals face similar and other kinds of sin struggles for sure. However, some folks just blatantly discount and disregard the irrefutable word of God. Remember some thoughts and actions may “feel” good but are still out of line with God’s word. If you don’t believe me, read it for yourself. Believing is totally up to you. Living it requires God’s grace.
ANONYMOUS ….Bestiality was voted in 1969 by a majority vote in Germany ,,,,the gov’t decides to stop it due to people prostituting their animals and not paying taxes,prostitution is legal because it is a normal job in Germany where people pay taxes,it is a shame that they never thought that such an act is sub-human,,,there will be an election on the 4th of December to make bestiality illegal ,,,,I think it is a bit late because a police officer cannot be under every body’s roof at the same time.
Dominica AD 1402
during the biblical days de stone them to death
All sin is sin. Let’s stone the adulterers, fornicators, thieves, murderers, liars, the preachers who sleep with the congregation,the children who don’t take care of their parents, the parents who do not take care of children. You Zman will be the only righteous one left in beautiful DA.
Stop focusing so much on homosexuality, when theft, murder, sexual abuse, incest, domestic violence and so many other CRIMES are being committed daily and with our tacit acceptance. As long as the adults are consenting, leave them be, love them as God commanded you to and leave judgement to him. Place your energies in defending all the helpless children being used as sexual objects to all the heterosexual men out there.
We cannot leave homosexuality alone. Sin is sin including the CRIMES you mentioned. The bible speaks of homosexuality as an ‘abomination’ to God. It is totally against creation and the purpose of God for us His creation. God’s plan for mankind from the beginning of time was to procreate. Two males cannot procreate neither can two women. Egg and sperm is needed hence God created MALE (with sperm) and FEMALE (with eggs) I think that simple illustration speaks for it self. As for marriage. It is an institution from God between a man and a woman and not to be tampered with to please lustful deceived people
We are not judging. We are simply stating a biblical fact.
We should not go round hating homosexuals but we can hate the sin that homosexuality creates.
As for child abuse that is another abomination that needs dealing with. Yes I agree we need to face these crimes against children head on but it is not an excuse to accept homosexuality as being right. It is not right.
Relax people. Homosexuality has been going on for ages, it just wasn’t done out in the open. People are who they are, whether we understand WHY they are that way or not. And they can either attempt to live full sinful semi-happy lives like the rest of us or live hidden, in shame and unhappiness. Laws cannot and will not stop homosexuality, so whats the point in having them? Why not encourage all consenting adults to live their lives healthily and respectfully and let God judge them like God will judge all of us.
There is no judgement for homosexual .God destroyed a entire city because of that same nastiness
i cannot understand that
We cannot do this as some adults think it is okay to have sex with children. It makes them “happy”. We need laws and guidances otherwise this world would be lawless and people will do what ever they wanted. God set up laws/ rules etc for a very good reason.
What the heck does this have to do with Sochi olympics??!!
The gay lobby has hi-jacked the games to push their agenda. We all would abide by a live and let live attitude if the powerful gay lobby did not ram their agenda down our throats at every turn. It is particularly bad in the UK and US where the powerful and noisy minority homosexual section of the population continues to force their lives and ideology on the majority. Just look at the moral decline of both these countries.
Cameron is going to rue the day he pushed through gay marriage, at the polling booth next election.
Yeah, and chemicals in the water turned the frogs gay.
Wow, these gay rights fighters have used the winter olympics as an opportunity to push their agenda. Too many children and people are starving around the world for the rest of us to be so bogged down with propaganda from men who want to sleep with each other.
Amen to that!! That tells you what is going on. You either accept it or you are looked at as someone who is homophobe. Sadly, I’m not one of those but will never accept that men can sleep with men and woman with woman. Regardless of where I live that will not change.
You objecting to men sleeping with men and women sleeping with women is the definition of being a homophobe lol
It is 2014; we do not wear the same clothing that we wore 10 or more years ago. The World is changing, we are much more educated. The reality is these practices (homosexuality, lesbianism) now exist. And they have existed since time immemorial. While we might say we don’t support same-sex marriages, we must acknowledge there are a large number of people whose way of life is changing at a rapid pace. Whatever changes are made, we must be considerate with the change that is taking place. With all the advances that we have made, what does that do for us and our respect for others? Why should a gay person [man or women] be treated any differently? Why is our society, a society of double standards? What is there a difference between someone choosing, to smoke, to do drugs, to over eat, to older man impregnating a 12 years old or to commit adultery? Some according to the law of God [which we often refer to] is sinful. Some according to the Political Affiliate to, we will find persons, who does these things wearing our colours. Are some people becoming a people, “Ignorant of the fact”? Is being ignorant of the fact leading to some persons showing a lack of respect for others? One of the reasons why our crime rate is also very high is that some do not know how to respect ourselves and others. Sadly, some do not know how to love themselves; hence do not know how to love others.
Whatever a person’s choice, we cannot punish that person for their choice. That choice should only be punishable when it goes against the wishes of someone else. Have Our Laws deterred persons/consenting adults?
Punishing have encouraged the spread of HIV and ADIS and Prostitution, resulting in Sex Without a Condom – SWC. Punishing have only help with closeted gay men and women and underground prostitution.
For those quick a quoting scriptures, What would Jesus do? To the woman caught in the act of adultery “John 8 1 -11: Jesus returned to the Mount of Olives, 2 but early the next morning he was back again at the Temple. A crowd soon gathered, and he sat down and taught them. 3 As he was speaking, the teachers of religious law and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery. They put her in front of the crowd. 4 “Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?”6 They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. 7 They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!” 8 Then he stooped down again and wrote in the dust.9 When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. 10 Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?”11 “No, Lord,” she said. And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.” How many of us have gone a sinned no more?
Therefore lets us consider our actions:
“1 Corinthians 13: 1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.”
“1 John 4:11: Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.”
“John 13:34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.”
“1 John 4:19 We love because he first loved us.”
Faith without deeds cannot work: faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead
Whatever your judgment, I am only a gay man who love the Lord and he have no forsaken me. Deal with him on that. My e mail address is: [email protected]
No he has not forsaken you and never will however, if you die without accepting him and repenting from your sins he will not regard you as his own. You love the Lord show it by your fruits. One of the fruits is self control. Being gay is the opposite of that fruit as much as fornication and adultery.You know the scripture why don’t you leave by it? The bible also says that his sheep knows his voice.
God loves all sinners. He made a plan to save all sinners by sending His only son to die on the cross for all sins we can imaging. God does not love homosexuality, murder, lies, adultery and all the other names for sins. He love you Michael and I am 100% sure he wants you delivered from homosexuality. This is not His plan for your life. You have made a choice.
GOD is LOVE. He is also a God of judgement.
I do not judge you but God’s word is as clear as crystal. We need to stop interpreting scripture to suit our lifestyle, it is a dangerous place to be in.
I know He loves you. He says he does yet he will not tolerate sin. He cannot look at sin without punishment.
That’s just who He is. Thank God for His attoiment through the Blood of His Son our Messiah
Great Job! Thumbs up! Now, let’s aim for that number one spot! Enough problems plaguing this country already we don’t need more. Save that for the bigger countries that are religiously flawed
Lies, .. they just want to soften you Dominica.
The discussions on homosexuality continue and it’s like beating a dead horse. Change will occur only by the renewing of one’s mind which will eventually change the heart’s desire.
An individual who continues to justify his / her lifestyle or actions will never see the need for transformation toward The Most High God. However, prayer is a powerful tool to induce transformation. Most may believe that God created them that way but that’s an obvious deception.
Therefore, to the gay, my prayer is that God will give you a heart to know Him and to understand the plan that He has for you. It is not a plan to destroy you, but to give you an expected end. In order to experience that, you must DECIDE to humble before the Most High God – Possessor of heaven and earth. He is well able to transform you into the person He intended for you to be.
You are beautifully and wonderfully made for His purpose and in the process, you get blessed. May you get to know the Lord Jesus Christ before it is too late.
This also goes to all those who are not gay and do not know Jesus Christ as Lord. May you make Him your Lord, before it is too late.
Man & Man, Woman & Woman DO NOT HAVE SEX they have abomination lets get that straight, it’s not of God and should NEVER be condoned,good for Dominica we should be first on that list.
mr.prime minister,i disagree with u on many issues before,but HATS OF TO U ON THIS ONE,I’M WITH U ALL THE WAY ON THIS ONE,NOOOOOOOOOOOOO BUGARAH IN DOMINICA.
with all the comment about gays/homosexuals, what about the Bisexuals,crossdress,transgenger, and transexuals lol
DOMINICANS=HYPOCRITES…
Consenting adults can do whatever they want in privacy whether gay or straight. I wish Dominicans felt this strongly about all the rape and abuse that occurs against women in Dominica, that is a real problem that needs more attention!
The problem with some people of the world as those so-called non-profit organizations, they want to push their intrinsic lifestyle on other islands. It is something to be proud of that D/ca is not involved with this evil behavior.
It is nothing to be proud of to be a homosexual or a lesbian and want to be recognized as such and to get married. God did not create this type of relationship and lifestyle for marriage.
Hats off to the PM for standing his ground on this matter and refusing to succumb to them. Hats off to all the Dominicans who do likewise and who stand up and denounce this abomination.
Such an intrinsic lifestyle will bring down the wrath of God upon the world, on Dominica. Consider if all countries give in to this abomination. It will be straight down the path of perdition. Do you think those other countries are blest by God? By no means! When more of them succumb to this evil lifestyle, watch out! Fire and brimstones will soon follow. Do you think the world can continue in that state and everyone will live happily ever after? Think again!
I cannot believe that some politicians have introduced this abomination in the legislature and parliaments of the world as those so-called progressive countries. Now they want the smaller countries to follow suit. No such thing I state!
Keep in mind all those who introduce it, legislate it, applaud, condone and are complacent about it know where their souls will end up. As it is stated in James, “Some people’s sins precede them to eternity. Others are followed by their sins.
Think God! When they legislate this evil, do you not think that God will hold them accountable for the many souls that will also be condemned to Hell?
They should know the difference of right from wrong, what is right to do and what is wrong that they should not do. It is upsetting when I think that two men and two women are allowed to get married.
Do not sell your souls to the devil for the price to be paid before God will be great for all eternity.
Think also of the children and how much it will contaminate their minds. A worst punishment awaits those who lead the little ones astray. It is in the Holy Bible!
God bless Dominica and nationals.
May God inspire those who live this abnormal lifestyle to know that it is wrong and to change before it is too late for them.
Wow. For someone who calls themselves “Simply The Truth”, this is far from it, buddy.
The man or woman who confessed to be a Christian must accept the BIBLE as the final authority.If not, he cannot be a Christian. The BIBLE is the manual given to us by GOD ALMIGHTY.It is the Christian’s manifesto and his or her ROAD MAP.
Even though the whole world say, we should change the laws to accommodate homosexuals.I will still believe God.For He have said through the Apostle Paul in the book of Romans 1:26-27. That lesbianism and homosexuality is vile passion,women who turned against God’s natural plan for them and indulged in sex sin with each other.Men instead of having a normal sex relationship with women,burned with lust for each other.Men doing shameful things with other men.
Go will have the final say…Who laugh last laugh the best.
Is there a size on sin XS-XXXL…please let me know…cause to me all sin is sin…and remember in BIG America….Obama break like a wild horse….and all those calling people Gay, they too are even more Gay than the Gays….this world is growing….and we should grow with it…What is worse cutting a poor mans electricity allowing them to sleep in the dark, or being Gay..
Is it because we are an under developed, or developing country that we have to accept anything.?
In the U.S.if a couple (man and women) is caught “making it” in their car on the roadside or in public parks,even at night time.You can be charged,and will be told, if you want to.? find a hotel room.
America is a country of laws and the laws must be obeyed.So are the laws of Dominica.
stand strong Dominica the new world order is taking over illuminati wants to control the world. never give up. no gay no lesbians. they are try to convince those island that are standing firm. they are funding all sorts of association to convince the leader and legal durisdiction. they coming in sorts of ways church, torurism, sport, culture, all aspect of life. we should be number 1 and no threat to our nation.
I respect all mankind gay or not.I do understand that all sin is sin. However, there is an alarming rate of people coming out stating that they are gay and expect everyone to accept it. People are entitled to do as they please however, you cannot force anyone to accept homosexuality including Dominica and Africa. Christians can no longer hear a prayer said at school, Christmas has been changed to happy holidays so why can’t Christians hold on to their faith by saying what the know is moral or not. People have a right to their beliefs and the homosexual movement is trying to change that. I have never seen two male dogs or any animal for that nature. Man was created to be with a woman ( as a help) not for man to be with man and woman with woman. If this should continue humanity would be cut short. We were meant to procreate and replenish the earth homosexuality does the opposite. To all those who prophesy homosexuality I have a couple things to say. What would it benefit you to satisfy your flesh, die in your sins and get to judgement day and face hell on that again? This question is not about the Christian that may not be leaving their life right it’s about you and everyone else that want to satisfy flesh. Homosexuality is a sin and acceptance is not going to change that.
First of all their is nothing such as a gay movement. What it is is that homosexuality has been such a taboo for generations now and where u have gays being burnt, hung, imprisoned, discriminated against, hated, misjudged, outcasted, denied the right to live like any other human and at worst many of them commit suicide. Now this is the why u now have gays standing and saying u know what? Am gay and am proud. Hate me or love me I’m gay and I want to shout it out loud…am tired of being looked at differently because of my sexual preference! That’s what the movement is about. And if god had really made man for one woman then how the hell could we possible defy nature? We could not! So then homosexuality is completely natural. NEXT. What makes you believe that hell really exists? Oops I forgot! An iron age book told u so. Besides u had the pope came out saying that the idea of a place called hell is simply incompatible with gods infinite love. NEXT….replenish the earth my foot! If u really believe we the bible we all came from two people and today there is 7 billion people on the earth do really see mankind being extinct with only a few people on this earth who happens to be gay? GET REAL. And what about couples who cannot have kids. Should we pass a law banning a man from being with a woman who is barren? Or u want to tell me now if I choose not to have kids there’s something wrong with me? What are u going to do force me to have kids because your ancient book says be fruitful and multiply? U don’t see milk and honey falling from the sky in places like rural Africa where millions of babies die of hunger everyday do u.WHO EVER U ARE I MUST SAY FIRST U KEEP YOUR RELIGIOUS BELIEF TO YOUR SELF AND 2 LIVE THE GAYS ALONE…U DON’T LIKE GAY THEN DON’T BE GAY
BRAVO!! thunderous applause for you.Your answers are true to you Mr WORM and not nobody else,make peace with your lifestyle and come out big and bold,air it for everyone to hear and see.
Theyb won’t hang you,they already know so why are you hiding? Come out bro.There s a season for everything under the heavens,You,the Pope andn the whole lot have your right and reason to believe in whomever and whatever you please but be grounded,firm and unmoveable in your stance because JAH gave free will.
On the flip side ,I hope all will be bold and come out also.Taik to your spirit man and since all is well there,do your do but always know there’s another take on things.
…And the UN committee wants the Catholic Church to change its teachings to accommodate homosexuals, abortions, etc. These people are morally (mortally) and spiritually sick. They want everyone to go down with them to Hell. They are well on their way for wanting every country to be secular rather than godly. Woe to them!
Imagine if you woke up tomorrow and the whole world was homo and you weren’t. Would you just do like the rest of them, even though you have no attraction to the same sex? If you were not religious would you follow someone else’s religious doctrine?
We all have one life to live. So long as you aren’t attacking other people, you should be able to do your own thing without being harassed or thrown into jail. God will do all the judging.
In the meantime, lets focus on all the ultra heteros out there impregnating young girls, leaving kids all over the place, forcing women to stay with them, beating them, and all the other abuse we all know and speak about daily, but don’t hold up the bible and cry it down as sin and disgrace to God and humanity!
Animals also don’t get married nor do they believe in god.
Great we should be number one and hello they were not having sex it is bo;;;
God bless my Dominica,God love everyone but he hate the sins.
Well i see that article as good news… that way gay ppl will not be attracted to come and vacation here!!!
We hope! Dominica does not need them and their money. Keep it up Dominica! God loves you!
Just don’t come crying to us for economic aid if your tourism industry sinks.
Yah keep their money cause we not about to bow to this down here
Finally we make it on a list that we can be truly proud of.
C’mon people let us not settle for third place but strive to be number one.
Down with this nasty people man and their un-natural act that they want the rest of us to accept. No way man!
Good going Dominica, GOD bless you guys!
Everything in observable reality among us is natural. If god really created man then you could not posilble defy it. Hence homosexuality is completely natural because we could not possible defy nature….Impossible. So grow some sense my friend
Again with this cruise ship thing? Where in any part of the world is it ok to have sex in full view of the public????? (And oh my, what a view it was!)
That task force thing was just an excuse to give the person in charge of it something to do. Nothing ever came of it and nothing ever will.
On a lighter note, one point the website failed to cover was the number of calypsos this year that targeted this issue.
Please remember people! “The PM says your boom-boom is yours and you can do what you want with it”.
Bon.
And with children around. These people have no class, dignity and respect. Note what they did in our country. They did not care who saw them.
They talk about child abuse but they do not see what they are doing to the children, teaching them immorality. They will pay for it before God.
I am certain that the PM did not mean what was misinterpreted.
Imagine that, There are so many closeted homosexuals on this island who hide behind multiple women, who get married, who have numerous children with numerous women…
The majority of men in Dominica who have sex with men is growing at an alarming rate. its not just the gay men who are out and about and open with there sexuality.
It is also those very men who call us names and threaten us are the very ones who tracks us at night in the their cars and by the road side and yes those very ones who sell the weed and other illegal drugs.
The very ones who harass us for sex on the job,the very teachers, pastors, priests, ministers, business men and the list goes on. no one is asking for special rights, we are simply asking for EQUALITY. learn the difference – and for those ignorant women who have alot to say to and about us, keep your men close and give them the attention, care and love that they so desperately crave from you so they wont come looking for it from us…
We are also very hard working men and women on this island who has contributed and are still contributing, and yes I AM DOMINICAN, Adultery should have remained on the law books, just like the others; instead the colonists chose to remove all the others but the buggery law so they could fornicate and commit adultery and the carnage of other bible totting laws that some of you are soo good at reciting.
Then again who am I, A gay Dominican and a darn proud one too…
Oh and don’t be shy to bury me with your words of hate, i am immune to it, it only makes me stronger and have a good laugh lol
Well it has to be said, I love that fact that the buggery law is staying it tact, but what Ces Sa Mem is saying is the truth… Too much child abuse and sexual deviance from adults to children why this is prevailent within our own society… I am not gay and I am not for buggery in anyway, anybody come near my children with that they dead!.. But unfortunatley many will turn a blind eye, not believe somebody abused their child, infact will believe the bauser because theypaying the bills!… Some of those abused children end up being homsexuals or Paros as my sister is because her mother denied that her boyfriend sexually abused her own daughter…. Come on people, change has to come from within, no denial!… Are we not checking Caribbean history, this type of sexual deviance is the white slave masters ways, handed down to the African slaves or workers and they have continued the whitemans legacy… Started with the missionaries in the church and the abused have now becoem the abusers… i’m glad we don’t let these buggeres into our country but are we going to allow the ones with money and power in our country to carry on… I know you speak the truth Ces Sa Mem… because my cousin went through exactly the same, a victim of child abuse of the highest levels in Dominica in the 80s… So it is continuing… Are we still going to turn a blind eye???… Even when it is your own??…. Don’t get bitter Ces Sa Mem… They know not what they do and that is not how you were born, it was imposed on you to break your spirit… Just likeit is on so many innocent boys and girls areound the worl, carrying the European cave culture on their back and spreading more Dis-ease on the world!.. Wake Up! Get Up! Stand Up!… Dominica!… This is not our culture, it was imposed on us as a people!…
So u are not for Gay but you would choice murder? What is really your point?
Just curious, what special rights are you seeking?
A gay friend once said some Dominican men are hypocrites; they are straight during the day and gay in the night. You need to know what it is you want. If you want to be accepting by the world and be one of the best tourist destinations, you need to tone down your anti-gay rhetoric. Russia has the economic power not care about the world’s opinion about their homophobic ideology, are you saying that Russia and Dominica enjoy the same status? How many Russian tourist do you get, where does the majority of your tourists come from? People, do not think that it is a blessing to have a negative reputation when you are trying to build up your tourism? Gays are very much politically involved and Dominica would get the worse of a fight should “Gays” decide to show their ire; the backlash would not serve us well.
I am not saying to forgo your beliefs, but the world has changed and it does not pay for a POOR country such as DA to blatantly discriminate against any group and not feel the backlash. In addition, have you all forgotten that the bible says judge not less thou be judged and that we have no right to say anything bad about our brothers. To all the Rasta’s, do you remember when you were as prosecuted in Dominica and forced to live on the fringe of society? Live and let live, to be tolerant is not being accepting of the life style. Finally, since we still live in the dark ages regarding women rights, sex abuse etc., we are simply not in a position to pass moral judgment on others.
I hope that we are not so ignorant to think that e.g. US, would put us before the economic and political might of their “Gay” citizens.
And titiwi…. Whilst your quoting the scriptures… Have you read the verse in Leviticus 20:13 ” “And if a man lie with mankind, as with womankind, both of them have committed abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.”
And titiwi… Those Dominican men that are straight in the day and gay at night are mre than likely descendant from their slave fathers/grandfathers/masters gene… These practices have been handed down from generation to generation from the plantation days… Are we still going to turn a blind ey or turn them in… This seed needs to be eradicated from the socitey for the sake of future children… The abused truely does become the abuser if it is not ealt with accordingly… Homosexuality is European culture that has been imposed on African-Carribbean people across the globe with the onset of colonialism as part of their imperialistic tactics…
I recall a song of a religious group in D/ca in the days I resided there: “What you going to do on the Day of Pentecost when the fire fall on you…” This made a big hit at carnival time, with the words, “Darling what you going to do….”
Ask yourself, when you stand before God what are you going to do and to say when you will condemn yourself to Hell for saying and before God as you do at this moment, I am a proud gay? It will not be Pentecost for you. You are not proud of God but proud to have a relationship or more with someone of the same sex which highly offends him.
This is an abomination to the Lord which he highly detests for you know He created “Adam and Eve”; not Adam and Steve. God has heard you and taken note of your words. Think about it.
Well it seems you are one of those hiding…you are not proud otherwise just put your damn name. So because you pay your tax and they harass you we must accept this homo nonsense. Stupes. I have never and will never be in support of homosexuality. That’s damn nastiness, an abomination.
@Ces Sa Mem, I agree with your statement about all the fornication, adultery, child abuse, you name it you said it; however, I disagree with you on the gay/lesbian matter. Real SEX is and should be between men and women. Yes, this is your life and this is how you choose to live it, but society DO NOT have to ACCEPT it. Where is the pleasure? What is your real reason for having sex with another man as oppose to having sex with a woman? There are men and women that were married and they suddenly became gay and lesbians.
It is so NOT TRUE when a man leaves his wife to have sex with another man, the reason is he is not getting what he wants at home. It is equally NOT TRUE when a woman say “if your husband was getting from you what he is getting from me, he would not come to me.” THIS IS SO REDUNDANT. I know for a fact that this statement is NOT TRUE. CHEATERS, on BOTH SIDES, will always be CHEATERS.
Because it is YOUR LIFE and YOU are living it largely, you all should NOT be too public about it NOR introduce others to it. I think everyone is entitled to their opinion about the pleasure and displeasure in society.
Lovely Dominica……Isle of beauty, isle of splendour,
Isle to all so sweet and fair,
All must surely gaze in wonder
At thy gifts so rich and rare.
Rivers, valleys, hills and mountains,
All these gifts we do extol.
Healthy land, so like all fountains,
Giving cheer that warms the soul.
Dominica, God hath blest thee
With a clime benign and bright,
Pastures green and flowers of beauty
Filling all with pure delight,
And a people strong and healthy,
Full of godly reverent fear.
May we ever seek to praise Thee
For these gifts so rich and rare.
Come ye forward, sons and daughters
Of this gem beyond compare.
Strive for honour, sons and daughters,
Do the right, be firm, be fair.
Toil with hearts and hands and voices.
We must prosper! Sound the call,
In which everyone rejoices,
“All for Each and Each for All.”
Do what all you want but know that in Dominica we have laws..like it or not just respect it.
May it remain in this manner. Homosexuals and lesbians have rights as any other human being in Dominica but the type of rights they want is abnormal and intrinsically evil which leads straight to Satan’s cauldron of everlasting fire. One would think that they would fear that.
Come ye forward, sons and daughters
Of this gem beyond compare.
Strive for honor, sons and daughters,
Do the right, be firm, be fair.
I especially like this part. What it says to me is we the people of this land have to be willing to step forward and put our feet down for what is right and honorable. Sometimes it might see harsh but we have to be willing to be firm and fair.
Morally, spiritually and in nature, same sex intercourse is wrong and fruitless. Even if you don’t believe in God, but there is a grand design that we can see, and it’s the easiest to see, that two same sex of any species will not produce offspring. We are human beings and we have not been designed to function in that manner.
The gay community wants equal human rights. Then act like human beings. Act like intelligent creatures that have to ability not to only function on instinct but on morality.
We can no longer use the word “Gay”. They took it away from us. There are some people whose surname is Gay. Bet they feel uncomfortable with that name and may change it.
The rights they want are no rights at all. God did not give them the right and never will.
@Garvey Teachings, you have the WRONG IDEA of what all this means. You consider TWO PENISES and TWO VAGINAE “gifts so rich and rare”, “Giving cheer that warms the soul”?
I think “Come ye forward, “sons” and “daughters” meaning “MEN” and “WOMEN” is that “GEM” beyond COMPARISON.
I believe my next vacation will be in the City of Sodom; I wonder if I will have the privilege of meeting Gomorrah?!
My my, it would be comforting to meet such an Icon and famous person. my my my, the fun and frolic i would have there; let me see,-
My bags are packed, got all my credit cards, cash, travelers checks, hotel is already booked, my bible and hymn book so i can attend Sunday service and ask the lord to forgive my daily Sins and what else.
Mmmm, let me see oh yes have all the gay sex I so crave before heading home to my little Nature Isle where the morality issues of gay life continues and its buggery laws with all those BIBLE TOTTING HYPOCRITES who seem to recite what they want from the Bible and not regarding their own sins… bless me Father for I am a sinner and I have sinned, Amen
u is a damn idiot
A big-time idiot. If only he knew what was waiting for him, as St. Paul said, “Let your laughter turn to tears.”
Sodom is in hell. Sorry to let you know it’s only a one way trip. When you go there Dominica will be lost to you, and sorry to have to say it, but Dominica seems like it will be better off without you.
They should be placed on an island. Let them remain there, segregated, never to be among normal people for they are abnormal ones.
Sodom and Gomorrah no longer exists for we know that God destroyed it. Those who practiced this abomination are burning in the fires of Hell where there is wailing and gnashing of teeth being taunted by Satan for being so foolish and unfaithful to God.
A saintly person said: “And they burn and burn. Every day is a new beginning,” burning in Hell for all eternity.
This is the truth whether people believe it or not.
The Bible say God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrha and the cities about them with fire to give an example to those who would live ungodly. See Jude vs. 7.
Hell will be the eternal destiny of all those who do not repent of their sins and receive Christ as their Savior. This includes all sinners
including homosexuals. :cry
The gospel
is good news for all mankind that God has provided salvation by giving His only begotten Son to die for our sins. His shed blood paid the price in full for every man and woman, every boy and girl who will believe in Him. 
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.
None need perish. There is grace abounding to every offender
You only need to plead guilty, and close in with God s free offer of mercy.
FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD, THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, THAT WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH IN HIM, SHOULD NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE EVERLASTING LIFE.
(John 3:16)
The WHOSOEVER includes you
Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill. International Evangelist.
i hope and pray that u re not from the NATURE ISLE,fool.
now this is one comment DNO should not approve. sacway sot!!
There is a line by us unseen
That crosses every path.
Tis the boundary line between
God s mercy and His wrath.
Your comments leave me speechless. It is hard to imagine such trash coming out of the mouth of a human being. It is the way some people talk after God has withdrawn from them.
God is merciful and longsuffering. But there comes a point in time when it is over between God and the sinner. It may be even now that you have sinned away your day of grace. It may be that the Spirit of God has left you to strive with you no more and God has given you over to a reprobate mind.
One of the cruelest lies the devil uses is an old saying that where there is life there is hope. This is simply not true. There are people even now who have crossed the line. They are the walking dead. For years the Holy Spirit strove with them to bring them to Christ. But their hearts grew hard. The Holy Spirit wearied and left them.
The Bible says, “…Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.” (Hebrews 4:7)
“….behold now is the accepted time; behold now is he day of salvation.” (2 Corinthians 6:2)
At this moment if you sense that God is still striving with you fall to your knees and repent of your sins. Believe Christ shed His blood and died to put your sins away, and ask Him to come into your heart and life. (1 Corinthians 15:3,4) (Revelation 3:20)
Tomorrow may be too late.
Rev. Donald Hill. International Evangelist.
I would like to make a very crude response to GARY and the Activist.
If you filthy buggers want to continue paying regular visits to another man’s rear end; then do so.
It is obvious comments made by DNO readers has touched a raw nerve and you two are not even man enough to accept it.
It seem to me Gary your references relating to the bible suggest you are trying to find justification in your already perceived acts of bestiality.
And this is the problem isn’t it? Where do you draw the line.
A cesspit should be built for all of you disgusting gay people to live in. WHY?
Because you HOMOSEXUALS obviously feel comfortable cavorting with and prancing amongst raw sewage.
They do not belong among us normal people.
We strive to be # one
Isle of beauty Isle of splender no BOGA
I agree with the P.M. no gay people on our land
I do not condone homosexuality nor am I against it.
Adults should have the right to do what ever they want behind close doors.None the less every man or woman having sex in a public place should be arrested,fined and jailed because public places belongs to both adults and children.Respect ourselves in order for our youth to respect us…Personally I do not believe the the law in Dominica is against homosexuality ;but rather sex and fondling in a public place.
In Germany having sex with an animal is normal ;if we in Dominica cannot respect the law we might want to openly become like Germany;there have been a case in the south where a young man had sex with a goat,instead of delivering him to the police ,the owner asked him to pay for the goat and gave him the goat,this was a big mistake that she made without thinking of the consequences of such nasty acts…
We must a bid by the laws because at the later end we might suffer the wrath due to our own mistakes…
Who says having animal sex in germany is normal? Papa all u making up story. Abusing an animal or person is completely wrong, whereas whatever CONSENTING adults do in their bedroom is their business so leave gay people to mind ther business.
*Morpheus voice* What if I were to tell you…that the Bible is likely inaccurate in almost everything it says, and there is no good reason to discriminate against gay people if you are a person who knows how to think critically?
[Freethinker]Well Think critically Clarifty Confusing Ideas Make Thoughtful Decisions Solve Practical problems.If anyone tell you that they hate gay they not of God.But what bad about that gay lifestyle is the promoting the right don’t be confused that act of that life style with love.The Apostle Paul points out that ”those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires”[Galatians5-24][Romans8-13]God is concerns about the works of the flesh.[Galatians5-19]Satan has not changed his strategy.Still to this day he uses the same two demon spirits to open mankind to partake of the deadly fruit that enslaves.
@Francis Chicago February 12, 2014
I say Amen to that my brother!
Sin is of the flesh–sexual conducts–no matter who does it, is the demand from the flesh, it is the call to gratify its hunger; sexual conducts does nothing for the Spirit–let us not fool ourselves about that.
Those who claim to have Life in Jesus Christ, must die to the sinful demands of the flesh, yes indeed, it does happen–I am a witness to that truth. And if not they are no difference from homosexuals, regardless of who they are.
As someone said God loves all people but He hates sin. He does not want us to hate those who are homosexuals, but He is displeased with us if we are encouraging them through that sinful practice of theirs.
Freethinker, this is the problem with those who call themselves freethinkers. They do not believe in God. They are atheists and obviously do not live a godly life or nowhere near that.
The Bible is the Word of God. It is there for our mortal and spiritual benefit that if we live a holy life according to these teachings, we will obtain eternal salvation.
People as you would like to believe that the Bible is wrong and you are right to satisfy yourself that you can live in any manner and be justified. Consider the millions of people who believe that it is the Word of God.
Freeethinker, you have it all wrong. Your freethinking and your words cannot change a thing. For what God has joined together and ordained no man can put asunder.
The Holy Bible is here until the end of time when we all will be called for our final judgment. The first, when we die. Take it or leave it. You choose the path, right or wrong. This will be your funeral and end.
We should have been in first place. The mere fact that we ranked third means that we are still allowing and encouraging some of the abomination practiced by those who are gay. I am disappointed with third place.
Do not worry, we are getting there.
By then He may come to re-claim his world since there is so much abomination in the world.
Pray to God for that. This time He would not mind.
I do not hate any one for their sexuality, we are a
ll Gods children, what I will remind the world media , computer and other technology is that the laws that are in place in DA was brought there by the English and the others that ruled at the time. As the Caribbean are so lsaid back we have not reviewed for centuries. Last but not least who the hell is the world to dictate to any kne we will move forward when we are ready

@dominican February 12, 2014
God loves all people; “Lucifer”, whom we know to be called “Satan” was one of His favorite angels–God called Lucifer the “Son of the morning” at Isaiah 14:12
But not all people are God’s children, otherwise Jesus would not say to the unbelieving Jews of His day on earth; when they claimed that God was their father, Jesus said to them at John 8:44
“You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
Therefore God’s children, in this world, are those were born of Water and the Spirit, through the “new birth” encounter. The apostle John tell us at his 1st. chapter of the Gospels:
“12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God”.
Jesus has warned us saying: “That which is born of flesh is flesh and that which is born of Spirit is spirit” He continued to say to Nicodemus, at John 3; “Do not marvel as I say to you, you must be “born again” of Water and the Spirit”–or else you are not God’s child and you cannot enter into His Kingdom.
Gays need to respect other countries rules, laws and regulation. Is not because it is good in America it is good in Dominica. What people do behind closed doors is their business but when it comes to the public they should know their places.
Do you think because marijuana is ok in California it is good walking in Dominica with a joint. Beware in Dominica you can be jailed for that all you tourist. TAKE HEED
Until it becomes legal around the world and they canmake money form it, weed is on the stock exchange now… You will soon see chiny and syri growing it in Dominica to sell in other countries…
Am only doing this because I know if and when some person google this issue the post will be there too, the dread act is still in place to this day u all can research and see how much Dominicans or any other national is in jail for being gay there are gay Dominicans to me all the law does is to let u know that u cant be kissing in public as u want,for what happened to the people that was arrested and fined they were wrong cause even here in the USA u cant have sex or acts sexual intercourse in public. If Dominica was so forceful on their law that same said cruse ship would have not been allowed to enter Dominica waters to me all are welcomed to Dominica just keep your sexual preference behind closed doors as should be, cause that protects our young ones from getting involve in any sexual acts at to much of a young age.
Please note that the Dread Act was repealed from since the time of the Freedom Party.
The one and only problem that I have with homosexuality is the simple fact that two men or women cannot conceive an offspring together no matter how much sex they have. And I don’t think Scientist will ever be able to make a man conceive from having sex with another man.
Humans are not asexual either and even if they were, the fact that the offspring would arise from a single parent and inherit the genes of that parent only would mean that the child would be the child of the man or woman that conceived and not both of them.
Which leads me to the question, if every man or woman should become homosexual how the human race would continue to exist? I am sure that all gays would no doubt love to see more gays in the world but how would we get more gays without heterosexual relationships?
With that said, I do not hate anyone who is gay. I hate the lifestyle but I try very hard not to judge a person because they sin differently than me. As much as we would like to think that homosexuality is worse than fornication according to the bible none is greater. I have 3 boys and I am trying to grow them up in the church and teach them to identify the ills and immorality of this world so that they can chose wisely. Mothers pray for your boys so that God can protect them from this immoral lifestyle. There’s a saying that the things you fear most have already happened to you.
I pray that Dominica wins a gold medal and I pray that the winner is GAY!!! Let’s see people as people and treat everyone equally. Gay people don’t object to our heterosexuality therefore I firmly believe that it’s their business what they do. Leave them alone!!!
Cryique i will tell ur woman who u taking for.
we never say gay people not people we only say well they are”gay people”. We are not saying kill dem wen u see dem. we are not saying beat them. we are not saying be bias. We are saying HUMAN RIGHTS already cover everybody.why should we have a gay partial rights. wat more could they want to do marriage is out of the question. We didn’t say tht the bible said that. the savior said that. he created them they are gay, instead they try to stop that animal instinct toward the same sex they want to make u understand it. If you have a disease you need help. they want u to believe like is so they are. nooooooooo.Lions, polar bears, great white sharks, and crocodiles are not natural born killers. The world around them creates that. Gay people can be helped but the first step is admitting they need to be cured or they can be socialized properly. We don’t need Gay Rights ? WE NEED WORLD PEACE.
I truly concur as far as needing world peace is concerned. With regards to gay people needing help and the need for them to be cured is concerned I believe that you are the one who needs helpj. There’s enough room in the world for ALL God’s children and this certainly includes gay people. This sort of backward attitude prevents closet gays which include married men from coming out hence they suffer in silence. There might be some in your own family or household. Who knows?
Whoever wants to be gay feel free. The gays eat, drink, s and sleep just the same as us the straight ones. So, my fellow Dominicans, let’s not try to do God’s work for him and judge, only the Almighty can judge us. We tend to think that being gay is a sin but adultery isn’t or stealing etc. you get my drift. I strongly believe there are greater issues to address in our country than gays.
Praise Jesus for where we are ranked!
Jesus would not praise you. Judge not lest ye be judged. God is love not hatred. God is light. Shine God’s light of forgiveness on these souls. They are your brothers and sisters. And they have been here on this earth since before the bible was ever written.
My sentiments exactly. At least Dominicans is standing for good Christian principles.
They are always quick to say that this is people judging others. When one speak the “Word of God” thus sayeth the Lord…this is not judgement, it’s scripture. So let them quote the scripture when Jesus said judge not….they totally misunderstanding Jesus’ word.
Let me tell you some truth: the only pedophile that I know off was a Pentecostal pastor,the first woman I personally knew who had an extra marital affair was a pastor’s wife, the first person I saw refuse food to a hungry person was a so-call christian, the first person I saw physically abusing a child, yes, you guessed it, a pentecostal christian. Now you know the kind,church service 7 days a week and twice on Sundays, yes please include open air meetings. That man was preaching on his pulpit about buggery, sin and God etc, etc. while abusing a young girl. Don’t pretend that the bible and God is the reason for ignorance; he will strike you down and take the sound from your mouth. Because a so call christian was the one going against God’s word, don’t you dare talk about forgiveness,how people are fallible or any of the religious spiel that you subhumans can sprout by rote while you lay in judgement of another. I am certain that at the end of days there will be more s”sinners” smiling than most of you hypocritical pentecostal subhumans.
The anti-buggery laws, weren’t they enacted by the British? They made the law and now effective March 2014, the same British are making it legal for same sex marriage in their country. If this is not a good example to show that we should always be willing to think independently and to grow, I don’t know what is.
WTF, Iran, Jamaica, Pakistan, Zimbabwe & Lebanon, see where skerrit taking DOminica, all u blind.
And where are you taking us? Downhill into slippery slopes to the everlasting cauldron of fire?
Dominicans wake up to your own hypocrisy. You tout God and Christianity over and over again – yet you are so filled with hatred for God’s people. Who are you to judge homosexuals? When you fornicate, commit adultery, have children out of wedlock with multiple partners. Just because you think you sin different than they do – doesn’t make yours any better. DOMINICA = HYPOCRISY. I hope the rest of the world stays away from this backward island nation. SMH.
Get this straight! We, too are fed-up with this homosexual and lesbian bits as they flaunt their abomination in front of us and expect to have right to get married. You lack basic common sense. People of the same sex should never be allowed to get married. What are you getting married for? You are of the same sex? You have no right whatsoever to be recognized as a couple and get married. Are you sick or what?
Furthermore, they should be ashamed of themselves to come out in public to let others know that they indulge in this abomination. You should be ashamed of yourself.
God is not pleased with you and your intrinsic evil behavior. We do not hate! We hate the sin and what they are doing to the world in general. We, too, have rights to speak out loud and clear against this which will also bring down the wrath of God on this world, on your country sooner than planned.
Go hide yourself and remain behind close doors. We are fed-up of you abnormal people. Do not get me angrier.
@FED UP February 12, 2014
First of all it is quite unfortunate to notice that you have “18 people”–at this time–who agree with your posting above–yes indeed! That is very sad!
But while you are crying down against us–who Christians–suggesting that “we wake up to our own “hypocrisy”, and in the same breathe you retort: “who are you to judge God’s people? May I ask you who is the God’s people who you are speaking of?
For I know that the disciples of Jesus Christ, are better known, today, as “Christians”? The apostle Luke tells us at Acts 11:26 “And the disciples were first called Christians at Antioch”.
After you have answered this question, I have another one for you–and it goes like this: Jesus said at John Chapter 6 “My Father chooses My people for Me, and I must raise them on the last day”.
So do you actually believe that the chosen people of a Holy God are those who are willfully doing that disgusting, shameful, conduct to satisfy the passion and demands of their flesh?
However with your question of judging, here is what the apostle Paul tells us, at 1st Corinthians 2: 14-15
“14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are Spiritually discerned. 15 But he who is Spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is rightly judged by no one
So be careful when you decide to open your wide mouth against God’s people–and yes we are called Christians–because you could have this mouth of yours remain opened forever; for you are not qualified to speak against God’s people. Got that?
I seat and read comments being posted because of one article that circulated worldwide, people commenting and not thinking of the long term backlash that this little island might face in the future.. We gays are not giving up.. When we ready, we will concur and victory will be ours… Being gay is not a crime. for some, we are born this way. othere adopted the lifestyle because some father, uncle, cousin, mother side man and list goes on, couldn’t keep there XXXX in there pants and forced us into the life style. Not forgetting the mothers that prosstitutes their sons (it does happen here) for a dollar to survive.. People misinterpresting the issue at hand. Gay’s or Lesbians here not asking for gay right to walk the street and parade with their man or woman, but we gays and lesbian fighting for equality. Equal job opportunities, equal access to health care, equal access to insurance, Equal access to everything that the normal straight couple/people benefits from. We Dominicans not seeing the benefits of repealing this law. But rest assure, it’s a long fight.. WE NOT GIVING UP!!! WE WILL GET OUR RIGHTS!!!
You that activist dere…u never stand up for any other group except gay rights..u not no activist.all u only activist wen it involve all u XXXX going inside another man bXXXom.knee-yak..go standup for molest children not just the ones who are gay. go standup for battered women not only those who are gay. go and standup for littering our beautiful island.but noooooooo. u making it sound like gay people and quote on quote straight people have a war. We are all people. i don’t have to like ur lifestyle but i have to respect you for the simple fact that you are a human being..and i believe that should be the most import thing that should be looked at. If gay people are taking advantage of then i believe human rights should come into play. not gay rights. what do they want the right for? if my father forced me to kill i grow up to be a killer..i should ask for killers rights? i agree with our laws it is illegal to engage in these type of activity..the law serves a purpose..love ur man if u want to but don’t ask the law to be partial..i want weed to be legal cuz i like to smoke..but it is illegal and i have to respect tht. Rastaman smoking weed as part of there religion. it not illegal..do you hear rasta man always trying to make a war for weed rights..
It is God’s world. He is looking and taking note. He wants us to stand up and be counted to denounce this abomination which you are bringing on the land, on the world including yourself.
You will not give up straight to Satan’s cauldron of everlasting fire. Bold and uncaring as you are, this is what is good for you and where you belong in eternity.
Congrats Dominica! We aim for #1 spot next year! Who’d had thought Russia would stand up for righteousness… the “The Evil Empire” they once called it. The first shall be last and the last first.
Respect Dominica and it’s laws. Righteousness exalts a nation and sin is a reproach to any people.
RUBBISH!
GAY RIGHTS?? We might as well fight for the right to commit adultery freely. Yes they are both wrong and God speaks against it, it happens yes…but u don’t see us fighting for it to be legal. Man and woman doesn’t even walk in town and hold hands and i have to see LGBT do it???? I agree with the person who said when we in their country we abide by their law so we expect the same respect!!! Be gay in the privacy of ur own home…just like the adulterers do (lol)
Too Soon I thought that you were serious for a moment until I saw ‘lol’. In which case I will excuse your utter ignorance. For every finger you point at others three are pointing at you. As a child growing up in Kings Lane we knew gay people whom we called Markoomeh (?) in those days. I come from a deeply religious family and my Mother’s hairdresser was a Markoomeh. We were not concerned about about his sexuality. We were very proud that we had the best hairdresser in Dominica. That was in the. 50″a and 60″s. My point is that they were here before you and will be here long after you. Get on with your life and let them get on with theirs!! Please stop trying to micro manage people’s emotions and way of life. God bless you.
I have no problem with gay people, I think im way more accepting of them (as a guy) than most if not all straight dominican guys I know. But just as I wont tell someone its right to steal dont ask me whether I think its right to be gay and expect me to say yes. We’re all sinners, we all have our poison, but none of its right.
That’s one thing Skerrit and I can agree on. We aiming for #2 next yr
In countries that are truly against homosexuality they ban all pornographic material related to it and television shows. Dominica hasn’t banned it and we also welcome gay ships. what the tourists did was wrong it could of been a man and woman and it would still be wrong.
Is that I find…the international media just like to find all ways to press third world countries…in any event who the hell reads policymic.com …So many homosexuals Dominica have both men and women and nobody not troubling them…those tourists come having sex in full view of the public like animals and they want to be wrong and strong on it…if they were heterosexual it would be the same thing as you cannot have sex in full public view…look a local woman was just arrested and fined for removing her underwear and exposing herself in Triple k band…so all coshoni that not good we have to accerpt and adopt then…bondoo oy!!!
I don’t get how being a top-ranking country regarding the worse gay rights is a good thing. The things Dominicans are proud of, and boast about will never cease to amaze me. Why don’t we address the healthcare, unemployment, and the corrupt legal system… Issues that actually have a global impact on the country, as opposed to homosexuality which concerns a mere fraction of the population, and only affects those who aren’t mentally capable of accepting and respecting people with different sexual orientations.
Well the story is out so we have a right to comment on it. A a i doh see with you.
Dominica isn’t bad, the gay ship was welcomed to the island.
To all those persons disliking the comments against the act of homosexuality, do you read the Holy Bible,the written word of the Almighty God? Does ‘Sodom and Gomorrah'(Gen 19)ring a bell?…..for the word of God says in Mt 24:35 “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away”.
I am proud that My country still stands against Homosexuality!
It’s sad that the white men’s religion has so infected your slave mind that it has never occurred to you that–wow!–the Bible might not be accurate.
Perhaps one day in a century from now, Dominicans will have learnt that there are other points of view, with more evidence to support them, out there.
Freethinker, there is no other evidence but the Word of God and what He expects of us if we expect to live with him and be happy for all eternity. Strive for it. There is no other way.
Mt 5:11 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Mt 5:8 “How blessed are those who are pure in heart, because it is they who will see God. Mt 5:7 “How blessed are those who are merciful, because it is they who will receive mercy” these are all the words spoken by Jesus. He also said let he without sin cast the first stone to protect a prostitute nonetheless. So none of u talking about God and sin know jack about heaven none of don’t us know wat God willing to overlook. He could send u hell without even looking at u and welcome the same set of ppl u want to discriminate against. As black ppl allu should know wat enduring hardships like. For the amount of years we spent under slavery and being treated like animals and pariah. But I guess u too rapped up in sadistic way of living to take notice.
Between this notoriety and that obtained through the recent effrorts of the Dream Team in its US and European tour, i am not sure which is worse.
Lol! Dominicans, Dominicans…Aieee ya yaiiii!! How can you rejoice and be proud about news that portrays us as backward neanderthals? Zot malade!
I really don’t give a fig’s behind if you are anti buggery or pro buggery. Our stance on homosexuality is ours. However, how can we rejoice on news that we are among the most repressive nations in the world because we deny adults their rights to entertain themselves as they wish, in their privacy? What is there to be proud about? I would be happier if the article said that we are staunchly anti buggery but we champion the individual right of adults to do as they wish in the privacy of their homes so long as they do not injure anyone.
Yes sah, zot malade mem!! Including Skerrit.
Nothing to be ashamed of Dominicans!! We should stand firm in our beliefs..Is not bcuz it’s acceptable in the US and other countries in the world, we just have to jump on the bandwagon..I don’t judge..Everyone has their own personal choice..If u are gay, that’s the life u have chosen..Live the life the way u want,,My problem is don’t try to impose it on me or anyone who is not living that lifestyle!
It’s amazing how strongly some people come out in support of anti-gay rights and talking about us as a Godly nation.
These are the same people who will commit adultry, fornicate, drink all their rum during carnival.
He have a high tolerance for some sins that we find convenient, but will go to the end of the word to condemn others.
What this tells me is that we are a nation of hypocrites.
God does not differentiate between sin. In his eyes sin is sin. if you want to preach to people about their lifestyle, you first have to look at yours and make sure you are free of sin and living a good life.
you see i love this convo because the GOD that you guys speak of work in very mysterious ways..i hope your son or daughter dont come telling you that they are gay..you wanna bash gay? when you dominicans stop fornicating, stealing, practising voodoo and all other ungodly things then you can maybe, just maybe talk about homosexuality..have you taken a proper look at the gays in dominca? most of them are high educated while you’re selling weed by the corner, they are always well dressed while you stay flocking the chinese stores..you think the gays in dominica give a squat about what yall think? hell no!!! we really dont.. because unlike you guys we leave the judging to GOD, not humans..so keep spilling your ignorant hatred while we keep getting our university degress, taking your jobs and then moving out of this old age country known as dominica
u can say wat ever u want, we still dont want dat lifestyle. and if my son say he gay is outside for him.
Hmmmmmm, seriously? Dude calm down. I for one agree that no sin is greater than another. But the bottom line is, it’s all sin. Whether it be fornication, lying, stealing, murder or homosexuality it is a SIN. Now you are free to continue buggering but that’s your business, you and God will discuss that when the time comes… However, please do not try to justify your sin by saying others commit other sins, we will all answer to ours when the day comes… Check your bottom
No one says that ‘fornicating, stealing, practicing voodoo and all other ungodly things’ are right. They are all WRONG according to the word of God, but the issue here in this article speaks of Homosexuality, and HOMOSEXUALITY IS WRONG.
Obtaining the highest degree, having the biggest job or having riches, riches beyond measure, says NOTHING about our salvation pal. For the word of God in Mk 8:36 declares “For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world, and forfeit his soul?”
God’s word continues in Mk 8:37 “For what will a man give in exchange for his soul?” So if we continue to give in to the cravings of the flesh, none of us, Gay or straight, fornicators or adulterers etc. will see the face of God, not one.
So if you gay ppl want to ‘move out of this old age country’ GO!!! This may or may not be a relief for some, but that does not change the fact that this Lifestyle has been CONDEMNED by God!!!
Yes oh holy father all mighty. U maybe believe u are Mosses with a whole new set of commandments for us. That alone he tell u na, God didn’t tell u to leave all the judging up to him too? Smfh.

please take a look on yourtube
(prayers For Bobby (2009) Gay! its on yourtube)
Then you will know what the bible says about alot of other sins!
Would the gay couple who were exposing themselves in public ever do the same thing in the States? No. it is called indecent exposure. One cant pee anywhere in public say behind a house as we do in DA. You get arrested in the states and sent to jail. So why do it in our country when they wont dare do it in their homeland. Do you see how God is punishing the states? With drought in CA and tornados in other parts.Snow in Atlanta.God is long suffering but he will knock you out in time if you continue in your nasty ways. Go park your car somewhere in public in the states ,make love to your companion in the car and see what next.There will be a bright light in your face and you will answer the questions that follow.
Don’t forget that their economy has been suffering terribly for years, and Hey, remember Katrina and all the fires? They have lost billions due to natural disasters.
Their other big sin is Abortion. Yes, another dirty secret in DA
Keep it moving boss. And dont let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.
WWJD WHAT U SAY IS TRUE……let him sell his soul for the devil and believe cuz he well dress and he have his “educated man” that is it.your soul done sell. all of all u that illumati lifestyle..
Those people seems to be proud of doing something so unnatural that they will try to make the right doers seem wrong. We stand strong. We are not for homosexuality. Dominica is down on God’s red list for too many things and for us to be added one more time. I say no compromise and let this decision stand forever and ever amen
Officials of the Sports Division were optimistic that the appearance in Soochi, of the two “Dominican athletes” carrying a Dominican flag would greatly enhance our tourism product and re-brand the island as a great tourist destination. “We have changed our motto to sun, sea, and snow if you want it,” touted the Secretary General of the Dominica Olympic Committee. But, tourists come in all shapes and sizes, both gay and un-gay. And the idiom “be careful what you wish for” is always at bay. The Olympic torch, illuminated in Dominica with the wished-for influx of tourists would probably show the bigots, religious fanatics, moral relativists, and so much more. All it takes is for the US State Department to issue a Travel Advisory.
Recently, Pope Francis posed a very iconic question “Who am I to judge” in reference to gay people. I concur. Who are we to judge?
we are not judging my dear friend. God clearly spoke against it, destroyed a whole nation for it. why should we disobey God our creator, giver of life for men who clearly are corrupted? we love the sinner but hate the sin. God made man and woman so they could reproduce and populate the earth. Can two men or two women do that together? hmph
now you are just being stupid..GOD destroyed the city only because of gays? you christians know how to put a smile on my face..there were other sins taking place other than homosexuality..there was also fornication but you dont speak on that because you are probably unmarried and have sex with tom dick and harry, maybe even sue..most of you are hypocrite..when the rain falls, does it only fall for the ungodly or for everyone? when the earthquake claimes over a hundred thousand lives in haiti, did your GOD only kill the bad people? i thought so..think before you speak..next thing they will be saying that dominica has the worst literacy level
man get lost with your comment not because the rest of the world think it is alright that we should endos it it is not of god plan for man and god did not make adam and stive but adam and eve . thats why america is where they are now god world will not be void he destroy sodom and he wil distroy those who do as they did in their time
I have had mixed feelings about our participation in the winter Olympics for some time, exactly because of the negative attention it may engender. It would be naive to think that we live in a vacuum, that the opinion of the outside world does not matter and that we are masters of the image we wish to create. Apart from the many attractions of Dominica he spotlight of publicity will also highlight our shortcomings and in our eagerness to get noticed we may have given short shrift to the notion that the world media may descent upon us to report on all aspects of Dominican life, be they socio-economical, cultural, political, religious etc. We’d better be prepared to be exposed in all our nakedness and not cry foul.
Lo, well said good prospective.
Sorry for the typo, meant perspective not prospective
by their fruits you shaLL KNOW THEM
Number 1 for backwardness, you must mean
It appears from all your comments that most of you are experts on this subject . The vast majority of gays did not choose to be that way. There is nothing wrong about tolerance. Some of you may even these in your family. Do you hate them ?? Stop being homophobes and smell the coffee. Some gay people stay together longer than many of your traditional marriages where more than 50% end in divorce or cheat. There are many more serious issues to get mad about than this silly topic with a million opinions. What about DA’s balance of payments ? Crime ?
well said..i dont think they hate gays anymore..i think they are jealous..lol..how can you hate someone for the way they live thier life? thats just ignorant..are gays taking yall men? if not worry about getting married to that man you keep fornicating with and leave the judging to GOD..
not bcuz u dont support a lifestyle does not mean u hate d person. i dont support crack do i hate crack heads no.
God made ADAM and Eve , not ADAM , and STEV, let us all stand proud and say hurra for all Dominicans.
GOD also made cane and abel and they had sex with thier family members,,isnt that a double standard,,hush up..the bible itself is contradicting
Learn to spell – It’s Steve. SMH
learn to spell first. lol
Well if God made Adam and Eve and they had Cain and Abel then where did Cain got his wife after he was driven out of the Garden for killing Abel.As to your comment that is so cliche
It’s obvious. Adam and Eve had many sons and daughters so obviously Cain married one of his sisters. There was no prohibition against marrying within the family until Moses. For complete discussion see AnswersInGenesis dot org.
He returned home and found a sister.
God created Adam and Eve not Joe and Sam don’t change the law.
Actually, humans evolved from other primates, so there was no Adam, Steve, or Eve.
Try again.
You must be nuts.GO READ YOUR BIBLE
So why the hell are there still monkeys if man evolved from them? dumb punk!
That statement of yours is incorrect. It should read as: God created Adam, then Eve. Adam was first which means that, woman cannot be equal to man except spiritually.
GOOD – We international. People getting to know about our island in a good way. We should even be rated # 1. We stand for our rights – and it’s not Gay (rights) I am DOMINICA, are you?
Who the hell cares ? when last was someone jailed for being gay in this country? CHUPEEESSSS!!!! Instead of wasting time on this BULL_… Spend some time on the NUMEROUS young men languishing at the state penitentiary for 1 or 2 grams of WEED and repealing this DRACONIAN LAW… LEGALIZE THE HOLLY HERB TODAY I SAY…..
Dominican need to take a look at this movie!
Prayers For Bobby (2009) Gay! its on yourtube

please take a look on yourtube
(prayers For Bobby (2009) Gay! its on yourtube)
Then you will know what the bible says about alot of other sins!
we will take it! we will take the bad name but we will still be against gays
are you listening yourself? geez..i am gay, i am dominican and darling i dont need you or anyone’s approval..i pay my taxes, i stay out of trouble so why cant i have the same rights as you..i hope your son or your daughter dont come out gay cause its only then you will understand what its like
Whoever you are remember that your life belongs to God. Does he want it?
well stay gay and die.
That’s what you hoping. for our sons and daughters to be gay so you’ll continue your dumb behavior.
“Sensible…” gasah…you must be a sick person indeed, telling the poster to go die…real Christian of you.
You nasty.You are leaving the natural to put things in the places where they were not made for
good and they will stay where they be bon. you doe vex at all
if there is one reason i will vote skerrit is because of that move… i agreeeeeeee 1000000% dominica small but when it comes to gay rights we stand tall and together against it…
Do we stand tall against adultery? Does God weigh one sin greater than the other?
We all know it is wrong thats why these people dont take communion or take active part in the church.
I am proud of all you Dominicans that stand against this corrupt way of life! God bless you and this beautiful country!
not in my land….. we are proud to be #3…. sorry no shame in that… next year lets strive to be #1… GOD BLESS DOMINICA…
Gay is not in our African culture.
they thinking gay rights. we thinking no gays left!
If that’s one time i think Skerrit getting my vote, is the stand he took to let American and the rest of the world know that he is not their puppets and his every intention is to keep the gays in their closets and in check.That’s why i love the Republican And not the Democrats.Noting should go up our your ……….. only waste should come out. And the lesbians why buy fake p……… when God created the real thing for you. The doctors always said wash your hand after you use the TOILET or you will get sick. get the message?
Oh shut the heck up u bigoted idiots. Why the he’ll should anyone care what two grown men do in the privacy of Thier own bedroom. Don’t we have better things to worry about like jobs, social services and economic advancement for one and all. In Uganda you can be spend life in prison for being gay, but yet every ten minutes a young girl is raped. So let’s look at where morals are screwed up here. No outrage for those young girls who are being raped,but two men all idiots out after these people. U don’t like gays! Then don’t be with a man! Simple as that! Really god made 1 man for 1 woman! Which god exactly? Allah, Thor, the twelf immam, budda, or the god of the Jews? The same bible that says u shouldnt mix fabric! Well congratulations then because if u ever worn polyester u going to hell ! Or the same bible which says that slaverly is okay…LEAVE THOSE GAY PEOPLE ALONE THEY AIN’T TROUBLING ALL U.”. WHEN SAME SEX UNION IS RECOGNIZED U WOULDN’T BE REQUIRED TO BE WITH THE SAME SEX. ITS NOT GOING TO BECOME THE NORM! U WILL STILL BE ABLE TO GO ABOUT HAVING YOUR LOVELY HETROSEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS. U CLOWNS WHO ARE STILL STUCK WITH THE MENTALITY OF THE DARK AGES
Why are you hot under the collar? being insultive,are you? Be resolute in your truth and be merry.
Please put all gay men on an island and check back in the next ten years or so and let me know if the population increase or decrease. Then ask urself a question
good! allyou saying we 3rd like that is a bad thing. we should be aiming for #1 if you ask me -_-
and who say we vex we fon dat list i am happy. im very proud of my country, we nt following the crowd and we are good like dat
Soon they will be saying please allow us to practice Incest & Bestiality.
Look out for the sound saying Goatie, Goatie don’t cry, if you do mammy will hear us.
Whoaw yo yoaw.
Gay rights? Bun dat!! We have enough house cleaning to do in DA, so doh bother try complicate it more. If y’all want gay rights, find an island somewhere and create your own gay society. I agree with Skerrit, ain’t no hope for them buggers.
Congrats Dominica. You are brave enough to stand up for what is right. Not because Tom, Dick and Harry doing it you have to do it. We have been warned not to follow the ways of the world. We go to other countries, we respect their law. They come to ours and they will have to respect our law. In Leviticus, God told the Israelites it is wrong for a man to have intercourse with another man. Let’s continue to pray that morals will not continue to drop down to rock bottom. We will continue to fight those evils.
so now you re gonna quote the bible? the same bible you are quoting also said judge lest ye be judged..GOD makes no mistakes..you think being gay is a choice? is being straight a choice? i think not..you were born to like the opposite sex..kuddos to you but dont be mad if someone’s lifestyle choice differs from yours..and what this country dont understand is by keeping this high level of homophobia they are making it very easy for the gays to seek asylum in the more accepting countries..what do you think DOMINICA is?
So you know the BIble too? So why you not doing what it say? You will be judged the hardest.
You cant call this intercourse, when a penis penetrates the rectum, which is an abominal crime.Intercourse is when a man’s penis penetrates a woman’s vagina.
What’s a crime? There are worse things happen.ing here .like older men molesting children, that’s a damn crime.
But men do the same thing to their women….and they call it love making using glide…education is a must in Dominica…small minds, too small to even understand, each one has 6 cell phone…but they waist their top up/phone to attain unnecessary RORO….education is a must…let those damme people be…
Oh please….Tell those gays to leave our beautiful island alone. I’m proud to be Dominican, are you?
keep your ignorance to yourself..not all dominicans think like you..people can do what they want with thier lives..only GOD can judge
You asked, What Dominica is? The answer is DOMINICA is a God fearing country. Men with men and women with woman is condemnation. getting the Catholic church to renounce the law is nothing, gays and the catholic doctrine goes hand in hand, the priest and bishops will marry women and men as a holy communion before God, but they refuse to do it for themselves.WHY???? then you hear them molesting little boys all over the place.gays and the catholic doctrine carries the same EVIL SPIRIT. THE SODOMITE SPIRIT. this is evil in the sight of the Almighty God.
But you wont be able to come and say what He threw you in Hell
Off course @Lookitdere. No one has told you what to do with your useless life. It’s people like you I want to leave Dominica clean. Go elsewhere with your nazty life. We(Dominica) don’t want you
In fact I am very disappointed that Dominica hold the number 3 position and not number 1.
Furthermore Dominicans I implore you to strive for that coveted number 1 position and hold on to it for ever.
The only shame is we are number 3 and not number 1.
AMEN TO THIS COMMENT, in the Caribbean i think we are #1 in health care, hope i am right about this. #1 in greenery,#1 in rainy weather, #1 in mountains, #1 in worst airport, sorry but that is how i feel about our airport. We definitely should be #1 against EVIL.
Not because some of the countries in the world accepts homosexual we have to!
It seems like the straight people in the world have to soon be in the closet. If we look at a gay person twice, we are discriminating them and their rights are being infringed upon.
What of our rights, ain’t it being infringed on when we are persecuted for standing for our beliefs?
Among 6 countries. That’s no number to talk about.
I commend Skerrit on his decision to uphold the law which is contrary to our morality and spirituality.
Go hide in a hole. Stop promote and wanting acceptance of this nonsense. No rights for dem
GOD CREATED ADAM and EVE, NOT ADAM and STEVE.
Therefore in my view the status quo should never be challenged and changed.
Why should Dominica changed it’s laws on buggery to please these abhorrent and disgusting gay people.
Every day you turn on the TV, you have programmes featuring gay scenes, gay marriage and gay interactions. They are constantly ramming down our throats these gay programmes, so that we can become accustom to these filth and accept it as everyday modern lifestyle.
What sort of example would we be setting to our kids and the younger generation by exposing them to gay interactions and gay marriages.
These disgusting gay people want society to accept that they were born that way and they can’t help the way they behave or feel.
Well if God wanted them to be a woman then they would have been born a woman. These people simply wants to have their cake and eat it.
These people simply have perverted, depraved and distorted mentality and they are hell bent on society in general accepting their depravity.
I would dread to think of what Dominica has become if one day I came home on holiday and having to contend with gay men holding hands and walking the street in my local village. (Colihaut)
If Dominica were to allow equal rights to gay people, the island would then have to cope with a free-for-all market of gay filth and an increase in HIV and AIDS.
DOMINICA DOES NOT NEED THESE ILLICIT PERVERSIONS ON IT’S DOORSTEP.
This is why there is HIV and AIDS. How do you think this disease, scourge entered the world and now has spread in Dominica? It is because of them and their intrinsic lifestyle.
the primary reason condoms were devised were not for the use of homosexuals. They still want to adopt children. Tell them to take a hike. I hate to use the word gay.
The thought is crossing my mind,
Thats the thing about you hypocrites. come to Dominica on holiday eh.
Most of you live in the US and UK, countries which are better places to live because people and governments are more tolerant of other peoples lifestyle.
Why would anyone CHOOSE to be hated, or not be able to have their own biological children, or need to hide who they are in love with.
Think with what is left of your brains before you spesk nonsense.
It is no coincidence that NONE of you will want to go live in iran, Zimbabwe or Lebanon or Jamaica.
It is also no coincidence that the more tolerant a country is, the better it is to live in.
But keep on talking out of both sides of your mouth.
Another reason why I concur with our PM that we must read and always consider the source of what we read. I checked the Website DNO thanks for providing it. Plenty to read there.
Thumbs up to us for being ranked third amongst all those bigger nations partaking in the olympics. We are keeping with the laws of god, for he create woman to comfort man. Round of applause for us “Dominicans” in maintaining this unspoilt heaven in the caribbean
God did not create anything, definietly not Adam and Eve.
Wow,hating another human being simply because of their sexual preference based on a religious belief proclaiming it to be the law of God is very sad.It just shows what religious indoctrination can do to the mind of a human in the name of God.
What “gay rights” that? Never thought I would have seen such human degradation in my life time; such as the dirty habits practiced in sodom. “I don’t eat where i .” All you gays and lesbians are accustom of doing all you mess without “right” – So continue without rights. God said it’s wrong. All you want to make it right? Like a certain murderous religion, all you want to take over the world with all you crap?
you are soo right…GOD said its wrong..not you..so let GOD deal and judge his people in due time not you..i hope you are married because almost 80 percent of dominicans are engaged in fornication..oh i guess we only focus on the bible when it comes to homosexuality right? lame
@ “really” You are contradicting yourself as usual. “80 % of Dominicans are engaged in fornication.” You seem to be the biggest judge of all. Do you “really” think before you write? I don’t think so. Retard
To 4CARS
When you mentioned quote “all you want to take over the world” The “all you” that you are referring to are people like you with religious beliefs showing intolerance to other human beings.When you said that God said it is wrong, I would like to ask you show me where God said such thing,you know there are so many things attributed to what God said.Do you know God gave orders to grow long hair, and not to shave. (Lev.19:27)DO know God had Moses warn the people of Israel that they must not eat “the hare” (Lev.11:6), nor “anything in the seas or rivers that has not fins or scales”. (Lev.11:10) These are just some of things attributed to what God has said think about it.
You are not confusing no one but your self. I won’t educate you.
Gary, go to the New Testament and read the writings of St. Paul. You will find it there. “As for practicing homosexuals…”.
That’s nothing to be ashamed about Dominica. Be very, very happy…..rather be thrilled that you are ranked third in the world in the stance against the practice of this diabolic perversion called homosexuality.
Importantly, don’t relinquish that number 3 position. As a matter of fact, try to become number 1 in the world as far as standing up against homosexuality.
Soon, the confused in the world will attempt to legalize bestiality, incest and all manner of other sexual perversions as persons can claim that they feel they were born with a desire for these perversions and hence should be allowed their ‘rights’ to practice their own stuff.
The same excuses used by mind-warped people to justify homosexuality are the very same excuses which can used by the practitioners of any other perversion to justify their perversion as being normal and having a right to exist.
The most diabolic perversion is when a human being relinquish his thinking and reason to religious beliefs causing him to hate someone, that’s diabolic.
When you talk about the confused world you are talking about a world of people who share the same thinking as you who are ignorant and intolerant with blinders put on by religious beliefs.You display such foolishness in your argument that there will be attempts to legalize bestiality and incest.Where do you get such idea from.It should also be pointed out to you the same Bible which fashioned your belief regarding homosexuality also sanctioned incest. Abraham married his half-sister (Genesis 20:12), and both Isaac and Jacob married kinsmen (Genesis 22:20ff; 24:4; 24:43). Paul is said to have given his permission for a man to marry his own daughter (1 Corinthians 7:36-38). Lot, Abraham’s nephew, beget two sons by his own daughters while in a drunken stupor (Genesis 19:30-35). Amnon, one of David’s sons, committed incest/rape against his half-sister, Tamar (2 Samuel 13:7-14), and, as a consequence, was murdered later by the order of Absalom, Tamar’s full brother (2 Samuel 3).
When you talk about justification regarding perversion,why don’t you question The Bible.
@Gary – Man get thee hence!!!!
And what did Absoloam do to Amon?
Is that how you interpret 1Corinthians 7:36-38? Go read and understand again.Ask for divine understanding
To Channel 1
Wow is this all
Dominica, I assure you…. you are doing the right thing. You do not want your country to become like these other places. Not because America accepted the abomination means we have to accept it too… Obama and all is agents need to seek God cause the only place for them is….. We believe the bible and have no reason to change the Word of God to suit man. God Bless Dominica!
thats pure nonsense!!
It is really unfortunate that whenever the International Press reports on this tiny Island, we never hear anything positive. We know the country is badly managed but that is no excuse to always protray us as one of the worse countries in the world.
you think this is bad light? stupzzzzzzzzzzzzz. we well glad!
dats one list am happy my country is on.
That is one ranking I will accept and be proud of, marriage is between a man and a woman. My grandma told me about it and she is not a liar.
Dominica has down the right thing. There are times you have to stand firm. Do not let them tell you any other.
I does be a relief when visiting Dominica that I do not see men embracing each other on the street.
PM do not let these bodily corupted nations tell you any diffrent.
Animals were created before Man! Have we seen animals behaving romantically with it’s same sex?
This Life style is being fueled by money men,
Let them know that we are not for sale!
animals engage with the same sex all the time. its natural
stop chat 4kree!
You can’t compare an animal to human beings. You have a soul and you rather lose it just to do nastiness whereas an animal is soulless
My neighbours male dogs are always at it with one another.
That is why they are called “DOGS”
You must be paying close attention – even know their sexes. Hope you don’t lust after them.
Is this how you think,very sad indeed
Do you know the Bible says that you must not offer God the price of a Dog? It is a reference to male prostitution.
Good on to number 1
yep! We going for number 1
I feel very happy to be a Dominican today. This un-natural life style will not over take our society.
And thats ok! We don’t want that in our country! Whoever doing it undercover stay that way..stups. The bible speak against gays all of a sudden ya’ll talking about gay right and all that bs.
