Re: Greeks on the DL!!!!!!!!!

Fred:

There are GAY PEOPLE all up IN the church!! I KNOW you're not frontin' as if they're NOT!! And even if you bar the "flamers", the ones on the DL will remain!

Re: Greeks on the DL!!!!!!!!!

Minister,

Do you consider the ministers who rape little boys as Down Low?

Because this dont get exposed until the little boy gets older and realize that that situation wasnt right. So all alone the minister is having relations with a person of the same sex and no one knows it.

You have a way of critizing the BGLOs but in the end they are still people. Since you like to discuss about the ones who are saved or not. Are the people that are considered to be on the DL saved? If you disagree than the ministers that rape little boys are not saved.

Re: Greeks on the DL!!!!!!!!!

Up until now I was reading both sides in the arguments for and against this so-called minister that is trying to spread the word of "God". As someone who is still contemplating her interest in a GLO, I was open to hear arguments from both sides in order to help my decision. After reading this "minister"s thoughts on homosexuality and general humanity, I feel that I would much rather maintain my relationship with MY God who loves all than to succumb to the things he is telling people. The fact that HE started this conversation and brought up gay people like they were lepers who should not be allowed to participate in anything made me lose the last tiny piece of respect that I had left after reading all of the other crap he wrote. I hope he understands how many times the Bible has been translated and that it is IMPOSSIBLE to read it word for word AND that those that do are shaping it to make it mean what they want. Perhaps in his years of studying the Word no one told him that things have to change with the times. Clearly, it would not be ok if we still sacrificed animals for our sins, even he would probably say that was a bad thing, yet he thinks that it is ok to judge others, either for their sexual orientation or an organization they feel is good for them and their lives. If he think that this site will deter people from joining GLO's I just want to tell him that he made me more likely to show my interest by showing your complete disregard for the equality of PEOPLE! And even to those who defended the GLO's by arguing that there are gays in the church-- there are gay people EVERYWHERE that you could ever imagine, but what should it matter. As a strong, independent, STRAIGHT Black woman, I realize that if I tried to shield myself from homosexuals my entire life I would spend it in my house, alone... Grow up and realize that people are different... and one of the reasons these organizations have thrived over the years is that they have provided a safehaven for Black people that were in the same situation people like this "minister" are putting homosexuals in now. Its never ok to hate someone merely because they are different. And I hope that the very religious AND the very Greek people hear what I'm saying and take it with them, or the world will NEVER change. Come on, we are all grown ups, why can't we show it?

Re: Greeks on the DL!!!!!!!!!

You make a judgment based on one post. I have a serious compassion for gays, as does Jesus, for He died for them. But did not God call their behavior abominable? Does not God's Word condemn homosexuality? Does not God say in Revelation 21:8 that the abominable shall have their part in the lake of fire? So who are you really judging? God! You are judging His Word and His authority. In your thirst to castigate me, you have forgotten about Him. I have witnessed to homosexuals who listened and to those who wanted to knock my head off for offering them Jesus. I ministered to a man for years concerning this struggle. So before you judge me, get to really KNOW me for who I am. This is why I leave my phone number on the website. 919/278-8911

In your ignorance, you do not know that it is a book written by a greek that I learned about this DL issue. So you are missing Jesus and the issue, by focusing your attention on me. You better keep your eyes on Him. If you are not saved, you can go to the home page for direction. I did not post this to change your mind, but to challenge you biblically.

Re: Greeks on the DL!!!!!!!!!

On thing I hate about this whole "DL" issue is that straight Black men nationwide are being smeared, as if being on the "DL" is just an African American issue. But given the rising rates of AIDS among African American women (and it's enormous spiritual implications!), I suppose it is a legitimate concern.

Min. Hatchett, please do NOT try to associate every known sin of man with BGLO's. That's the same technique racist Websites use on Black people. Those "DL" dudes you speak of would have been on the "DL" whether they were "greek" or not. I have never known my greek letter organization as one that provides a "safe-haven" for Bi-sexual Black men!!! Believe me, not all fraternities encourage or tolerate this behavior as you seem to say. That's why many of these "men" have to be on the "DL". "DL" greeks have fraternity brothers who would "wreck" them if they ever found out they were "double-dipping". As a Believer, I'm not saying that's right or condoning that approach, but that's how it is.

Re: Greeks on the DL!!!!!!!!!

Gay's get excommunicated from church? If all sins are equal I am in big trouble. I'm fat! I hope they let me in church this Sunday.

Re: Greeks on the DL!!!!!!!!!

Sweetheart,

I don't know what church they go to, but my pastor has let alcoholics come into the church and told them he would put their drink in the refrigerator for them (now his father and some other pastors probably wouldn't have done that) but since he's so Spirit lead (Holy Spirit lead) do you think they wanted their drink by the time service was over? Nope. All churches are not the same. All Christians are not the same: some have fallen, some are backsliders (went back to what God brought them out of), and some are just flat out hypocrites. As a matter of a fact, there is a young lady who comes to our church who has engaged in bisexual behavior, but no one treats her different. Some people probably don't even know. Those things don't matter to us--at our church---because when they come in they're going to get the Word, but how can we give them the Word if we push them out. faith comes by hearing....how shall they hear w/o a preacher? Also to add, we bring in atleast 50 homeless men from a shelter downtown Chicago every Sunday (pick up and drop off), they sit in the same congregation, eat breakfast and dinner with money that we paid tithes with (b/c that's what it's for), oh and b4 service starts they get to shower and put on clean clothes too, man that's so sweet (smiling). I'm sorry I have to take a minute...I love the ministry that I'm under. Praise God....all glory and honor belongs to Him. HALLELUHAH! But anyways, my point was that not all Christian churches are like that and whoever comes into our church lookn funny at the homeless men, the drug addicts, or the alcoholics, will feel stupid, b/c we'll have to fix our faces to keep from lookn at them like they're being a hypocrite. Yet, it is NOT wrong, but rather RIGHT to speak out against these things, but out of love and genuine concern for their soul.

Be encouraged all,
Let God be glorified
