i wish the lady would cry for the bad state of nigerian roads, infrastructure and healthcare.

This is another tragedy, like ethnic discrimination. The problem is the lack of tolerance which is horrific. Ppl go around imposing their moral codes on others who dont recognize it. Imagine a Muslim enacting Sharia inspired legislation in the country.

Homosexualism is a form of sexual orientation,and anybody who chooses to be one should be let alone-though it nt a "CHOICE" people just find themselves to be one,just like an Asexual person.There are many married men and women among us,who cover up their identity with marriage for fear of being lynced.Let them be.

Too small, I don't blame yo, should I? You will jail someone because of their sexuality? What they do and how they do it is none of anyone's business, in fact such nonsense should be challenged.

Those that say homo.sexuality is not a choice are TOTALLY wrong! Hom0 is an addiction just like hard drugs. People who practice this animalistic act find themselves into it due to environmental factors such as the place they grew up, people they grew up with and the kind of friends they keep. People who mingle only with same sex friends with very rare or no contact with opposite sex are likely to be hom0 inclined. This is seen in only boys or only girls boarding schools, prison and places where mixing of males and females are forbidden.
This is also common in places where sharia law is very strict, that is one of the reasons why people in northern Nigeria marry very early as teenagers. In the north, young men or women grow up with only their same sex friends without interaction with their opposite counterparts and they often sleep in the same room so, when they feel arouse they have no boyfriend/girlfriend to think about. Therefore, the hom0 among them teaches others the act and before you know it, they are already addicted. This may be one of the reasons why they marry early to avoid these sins. This is not peculiar to the north, it is found in the south as well but not due to religious law (like sharia) rather, due to people they mingle with and places they have once lived like the boarding school.

Anyone who has understanding should read this
ROMANS 1
18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.

21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.

24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.

28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

We are indeed becoming more ''civilized'' everyday, in fact the level of civilization of some people is truly ''commendable'', people are now so civilized and exposed that very soon we might have to legalize financial corruption in Nigeria because it is not a ''choice'' but rather ''natural'' for our kleptomaniac politicians.

The sentential propositions of some clearly very well ''educated'' people on this site is equally ''commendable'', they are so educated that they know it is right to subjugate clearly forward looking , positive tradition values for questionable western moral standards. while the west is trying all it can to revert back to natural moral systems as expounded by our wise forefathers, these ''liberal'' ''progressives'' are asking that we should throw traditional African values, values that any sane society cannot argue against, to the dogs, they are saying that there is nothing wrong in a man marrying a man, or a woman doing the same, very soon we shall have to legalize robbery, murder, rape, anarchy because it is '' natural'' to some people, and we must not '' punish '' them for what they had no choice in doing, these developments are really '' commendable'',

I do believe sex is an addiction and should be banned.

Our culture has sadly been used as a defence to pedophile acts ( Sharia peeps) used to discriminate against women.

At least progressive thoughts for women rights have been however treated as western encroachment

As far as they are no comitting REAL crimes. Afterall its their body. Its just crminalising M@stubating.

I pass no personal judgment, “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of GOD;” - Rom 3:23. GOD HIMSELF is Judge. However, these are one of the many, many signs of the times in which we live, (the very end times)

Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.” - Psalm 96:13
----
Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even
their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
” - Romans 1:25-27

You are probably right. However that does not justify putting two consenting adults in jail for their sexual activities.

Bottom line is: We Africans are allowing ourselves to be INFECTED with the White-man's malaise!

Before you know it, America and UK will revoke the VISA of ALL LAW_MAKERS in Nigeria! grin grin should they pass that Bill! shocked shocked

Its called "arm-Twisting"!

Africa must suffer what Europe and America is suffering naah!

How can they allow "Dark people from that Dark continent" to claim "moral superiority" over them, Them whites folks!! wink wink

It has nothing to do with human rights!
As Fela would say: Animal cant dash me Human right!

All same-sex lovers should keep it under wraps (quiet), accept counseling to help them overcome their depravity or face the consequence if thy continue to "foul the air" with the noise!

@ Gagaboy, what is the difference between being GAY and INCEST? The argument is:

GAY: IT'S NOT A CHOICE TO BE GAY, YOU FEEL THE WAY YOU FEEL AND THEREFORE IT IS YOUR HUMAN RIGHT TO BE ALLOWED TO DO WHAT YOU FEEL AND WHAT. IT IS TWO PEOPLE WHO ARE GENUINELY IN LOVE AND WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT.

INCEST: THEY ARE TWO PEOPLE WHO ARE GENUINELY IN LOVE, EITHER PARENT-SIBLINGS OR SIBLING-SIBLINGS. THEY DON'T HARM ANYONE.

if this is the case, why does society go against INCEST and not GAY. Shouldn't the two be given human right?

My opinion, gay and incest are thesame and if one is wrong and punishable by law, the other is TOO!

whitemen progress because of their believe in practical reality and their believe that every human deserves support and enabling enviroment to attain his/or her God given potentials.on the contrary we africans like pretense and discouragement of what is impossible to change.this act of man loving man has been in exixtence in africa or nigeria from time imemorial but in absolute secrecy.let me ask can you tell what the person next to you does in secret?obviously no.this is inborn,as well as exposure to it.im one no doubt but i wont say there is any spiritual attatchment to it.can you imagine your child being one.i know you will say.god forbid,but so many nigerians are into it even popular political office holders.go to manjam .com, bgclive.com and see how many nigerians you will find there.denying this number their right is like sending your child on a psychological axile.if you are not one that does not mean you are a saint.its an orientation that defies treatment.ive tried several times because of my ENVIROMENT,but it seems im going to die of psychological trauma.the best is accepting people for who they are.

You are absolutely wrong Gagaboy! Homo is a choice, nobody was born homo because there is no gene found to be connected to homosexuality. It is an act picked up from the environment i.e places these homo once lived/is living or kind of friends he/she keeps.
God NEVER created anybody homo, it is clearly written in Roman 1:26-28, 32. If you read this part of the bible (if you are a christian) you will understand for yourself the mind of God about homosex.uality. You dont need any explanation because it is written in simple English. *I still find it difficult to believe that some Pastors/Bishops in the west are practising & encouraging it. what kind of bible do they read to their congregation?* embarassed
