Archbishop John Nienstedt

John Nienstedt, the Catholic archbishop who championed the failed effort to ban same-sex marriage in Minnesota, is facing a church investigation over allegations of inappropriate sexual relationships with other men, including priests and seminary students.

“I believe that the investigators have received about ten sworn statements alleging sexual impropriety on the part of the archbishop dating from his time as a priest in the Archdiocese of Detroit, as Bishop of New Ulm, and while coadjutor and archbishop of
St. Paul and Minneapolis ,” church whistleblower Jennifer Haselberger told the magazine Commonweal, adding that Nienstedt “also stands accused of retaliating against those who refused his advances or otherwise questioned his conduct.”

Haselberger previously revealed that Neinstedt was failing to properly investigate instances of alleged sexual abuse by priests, including one priest who may have had an “unprofessional relationship” with Neinstedt.

Nienstedt vigorously denied the allegations, and stressed in his statements that none of the claims of sexual misconduct “involve minors.”

Last year, Nienstedt was investigated by local law enforcement for allegedly touching a boy’s buttocks during a confirmation ceremony, but was not charged.

Under Neinstedt, the archdiocese of Minneapolis and St. Paul joined with fellow Minnesota dioceses to deliver hundreds of thousands of dollars to anti-gay groups, together becoming the largest donor to the unsuccessful campaign pushing a state marriage amendment.

Neinstedt warned Catholics that “there ought not be open dissension” on the issue of marriage equality and urged them to pray against gay rights.

In 2010, the archdiocese also sent out more than 400,000 DVDs to parishioners urging them to vote for candidates that supported putting a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage on the ballot in 2012.

During the campaign to ban marriage equality, Neinstedt said Satan is behind gay rights and called homosexuality a “ grave evil.” He has criticized the film Brokeback Mountain as an attack on Jesus Christ that would bring down society and described homosexuality as the “result of psychological trauma” that “must be understood in the context of other human disorders: envy, malice, greed, etc.”

Yooguyz: Not on a forum like nairaland, not when i have blood-sucking-murderous-hatefilled monikers like BERNIMOOREE, BARISTARD, and co after my neck.

I don't want to wake up one morning and see my face on those homophobic newspapers.

Abeg i no won take risk.

lolsss, unlike me, i live in nija, but can post my pix here if i so desire, fúcks on nl can't do anything about it

Yooguyz: LOL
not me really! Looks very much like me, the eyes, nose, skin color, everything. Except for the side-beards.

When my distant cousin saw the pix, she thought i had grown a side-beard overnight

You're this cute? Pictures or you know nah...

Yooguyz: @GSKing, what do you think about my profile picture?

Is that you?

Dayuuuuuummm!

sexy as hell!

Despite what cable news may tell you, scientists don’t really squabble over if evolution is real (it is) or if the climate is changing faster than can be explained by naturally-occurring phenomena (it is) or if vaccines are regarded as safe and recommended for most children (they are). Sure, there may be fine
points within those categories that are debatable, but not to the extent that is commonly described by talking heads on TV. However, that’s not to say that scientists perfectly understand everything about the ways of the Universe.

Physicist Brian Cox once said: “I'm comfortable with
the unknown—that’s the point of science. There are
places out there, billions of places out there, that we know nothing about. And the fact that we know
nothing about them excites me, and I want to go out
and find out about them. And that's what science is.
So I think if you’re not comfortable with the unknown, then it’s difficult to be a scientist,…I don’t
need an answer. I don’t need answers to everything. I want to have answers to find.”

https://www.iflscience.com/sites/www.iflscience.com/files/styles/ifls_large/public/blog/%5Bnid%5D/mysteries%20of%20science.jpg

So what are some of the top mysteries keeping scientists busy? Here’s our top ten:

1. Why is there more matter than antimatter?

According to our current understanding of particle
physics, matter and antimatter are equal but opposite. When they meet, they should destroy one
another and leave nothing left over, and most of those annihilations should have occurred early in the Universe. However, there was enough matter left over to make the billions and billions of galaxies, stars, planets, and everything else. Various explanations surround mesons, which are short-lived subatomic particles made of one quark and one antiquark. B-mesons decay more slowly than anti-B-mesons, which could have resulted in
enough B-mesons surviving the interaction to create all of the matter in the Universe. Additionally, B-, D-, and K-mesons can oscillate and become antiparticles and then back again. Studies have suggested that mesons are more likely to assume the normal state, which may also be why regular particles outnumber antiparticles.

2. Where is all the lithium?

Early in the Universe when temperatures were incredibly high, isotopes of hydrogen, helium, and
lithium were synthesized in abundance. Hydrogen and helium are still incredibly abundant and make up nearly all of the mass in the Universe, though there is only about a third of the lithium-7 that we should see. There are a wide variety of explanations for why this might have happened, including some
hypotheses involving hypothetical bosons known as axions, and others believe it is trapped in the core of stars, which our current telescopes and instruments can’t detect. However, there are currently no clear front running theories to explain
this absence of lithium in the Universe.

3. Why do we sleep?

While we do know that the human body is regulated by a circadian clock that keeps humans on a sleep/wake cycle, we don’t really know why. Sleep is the time when our bodies repair tissues and perform other maintenance activities, and we spend nearly a third of our lives snoozing. Some other organisms don’t need to sleep at all, so why do we? There are a few different ideas out there, but none seem to solidly answer the question. Some theorize that animals who are able to sleep have evolved the ability to hide from predators, while others who need to remain more alert are able to rest and regenerate in other ways without fully going to sleep. While scientists don’t quite know why we do it, they are starting to learn more about why it is important, and how sleep impacts important things like brain plasticity.

4. How does gravity work?

We all know that gravity from the moon causes tides, Earth’s gravity holds us to the surface, and the sun’s gravity keeps our planet in orbit, but how much do we really understand it? This powerful force is generated from matter, and more massive objects therefore have a greater ability to attract other objects. While scientists do understand a great deal about how gravity acts, they aren’t really sure why it exists. Why are atoms mostly empty space? Why is the force that holds atoms together different from gravity? Is gravity actually a particle? These are answers that we really just
can’t answer with our current understand of physics.

5. Where is everyone?

The observable Universe is 13.7 billion light-years in diameter, filled with billions of galaxies with stars and planets, yet the only evidence of any life
anywhere is right here on Earth. Statistically, the odds of us actually being the only living beings in the Universe are impossibly low, so why the hell haven’t we connected with anyone else yet? This is known as the Fermi Paradox, and there have been dozens of suggestions to explain why we haven’t encountered extraterrestrial life; some more plausible than others. We could probably talk about all of the different possibilities for days about
whether or not we’re just missing signals, if they’ve
actually been here and we didn’t know it, they can’t/
don’t want to talk to us, or the extremely unlikely
scenario—if Earth is the only planet with life ever.

6. What is dark matter made of?

About 80% of all mass in the Universe is made of
dark matter. Dark matter is pretty peculiar stuff, as it doesn’t emit any light. Though it was first theorized about 60 years ago, there isn’t any direct
evidence of its existence. Many scientists believe
dark matter is comprised of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), which could be up to 100 times more massive than a proton, but doesn’t readily interact with the baryonic matter our instruments were designed to detect. Other candidates for dark matter’s composition include axions, neutralinos, and photinos.

7. How did life begin?

Where did life on Earth come from? How did it happen? Those who believe in the Primordial Soup
model believe that a nutrient-rich early Earth
eventually formed increasingly-complex molecules that gave rise to life. This could have taken place in the deep ocean vents, in clay, or under ice. Different models also give variable levels of importance to the presence of lightning or volcanic
activity for the spawn of life. While DNA is the
predominant basis for life on Earth now, it has been
suggested that RNA could have dominated the first
lifeforms. Additionally, other scientists question
whether other nucleic acids aside from RNA or DNA may have once existed. Did life spawn just once, or is it possible that is was created, wiped out, and then restarted? Some believe in panspermia, in which microbial life was brought to Earth via meteorites or comets. Even if that is true, it doesn’t answer the question of how that life originated.

8. How do plate tectonics work?

It might sound surprising, but the theory of continental plates moving around, rearranging continents and causing earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and even forming mountains, has only
received widespread support relatively recently. Though it was first postulated back around 1500 that the continents may have once fit together (it’s not really a stretch for anyone who has looked at a map), the idea didn’t gain a lot of traction until the 1960s when the hypothesis of sea-floor spreading, where rocks are pulled into the mantle of the Earth, recycled, and brought back to the surface as magma, was backed up by physical evidence. However, scientists aren’t entirely sure on what drives this movement or exactly how plate boundaries were created. There are many theories, but none of them
completely address all aspects of this activity.

9. How do animals migrate?

Many animals and insects migrate throughout the year in order to escape changing seasonal temperatures and the waning resources that come with it or to find mates. Some of these migrations can reach thousands of kilometers in one direction, so how do they find their way there and back again year after year? Different animals use different navigational tools, including some who are able to tap into the Earth’s magnetic field and use themselves like a compass. However, scientists still
don’t know how this trait evolved or how untrained
animals know exactly where to go season after season.

10. What is dark energy?

Of all of the great mysteries of science, dark energy might be the most enigmatic of all. While dark matter makes up an estimated 80% of all mass, dark energy is a hypothetical form of energy believed to make up around 70% of all content in the Universe. Dark energy has been implicated as the cause for the expansion of the Universe, though there is still a considerable amount of mystery regarding its supposed properties. First and foremost, what is it even made of? Is dark energy constant, or are there fluctuations throughout the expanse of space? Why does dark
energy’s density appear to match the density of regular matter? Can dark energy be reconciled with Einstein’s theory of gravity, or does the theory need to be reevaluated?

Scaredsilent: You guys are actually much lol thenks for the info. Lol at Golden Lesbians. Lesbians who have never slept with the opposite sex. If i was Lesbian I would be a Golden/ Pillow Princess Lesbian. lol.

Have you heard of personality types... in general for humans its psychology stuff. i think thats why we have so many variants in every sexual preference.

http://www.humanmetrics.com/cgi-win/JTypes2.asp

Im Gold star. GS...King, the K is my name, Kathrene.

And as regards personality types, what kind dyu mean? i know of the main 4: sanguine, melancholic, choleric and phlegmatic.
im mel/san but more of melancholic... im guessing 80% melancholic and 20% sanguine, cos they say no one has full monopoly of a particular personality...
My ex gf was san/mel... i thought she was 100% sanguine though...

beryl04: If u can come east of d Niger river ,u'll be much welcomed!

Me nko? Its beans I want! Happy Matrimony in advance

Scaredsilent: Lol Covering my face am sorry I guess there's "Stereo-phobia" even in the Gay community. Why I said that is because sometimes Like you said the Female (Tender one) because she is passive in the relationship(I would say more womanly) has a tendency to be bisexual or just a str8 girl having fun with a temporary partner till a real man comes along.

Like i said humanity is complicated lool

Humanity is complicated, I firmly agree but you haven't still accepted the fact that most feminine lesbians are strict lesbians. They don't swing, they weren't built to be butchy. I want to put down something, please pardon me for digressing a little off topic:

Dictionary of Lesbian Terms.

AG: An acronym for “Agressive Girl.” Not
necessarily as masculine as a butch or stud, but an AG has more masculine qualities and is sexually dominant. A “top,” so to speak.

Baby Lesbian: A lesbian who is between the ages of high school graduation and drinking age.

Beibian: A lesbian that strongly resembles Justin Bieber. Specifically, they have a similar
haircut as the young pop star. Biebians have
become overwhelmingly numerous within the last couple of years.

Bicurious: A female who is straight but sexually curious about other females.

Bisexual: One who feels sexual/emotional
attraction toward both men and women.

Boi, Soft Stud: A lesbian who is more masculine than a stemme but more feminine than a stud.

Butch, Stud: The polar opposite of a femme.
Butches often require a double-take to determine whether they are male or female. They harbor primarily masculine characteristics.

Circle Lesbians: A group of lesbians who have sex and date one another.

Dick Dyke: A lesbian who secretly enjoys
sexual relationships with men. Different from a bisexual because it’s secretive, and the girl still identifies as a lesbian.

Family, The : This is a general gay term. It can be used when asking about someone’s sexual orientation. “Is she part of the Family?”

Femme, Lipstick Lesbian: A lesbian that has solely female characteristics. Femmes, generally, aren’t afraid to wear dresses and heels. Makeup is also a femme necessity, which is why they are also often referred to as “lipstick lesbians.” Femme lesbians are nearly impossible to identify as gay, especially without the highest quality of gaydar.

F4F: “Femme for Femme.” A femme who is
interested in relationships, either sexual or emotional, with another femme.

Gold Star/Golden Lesbian: A lesbian who has
never slept with a man. I’m not sure, but I think this term originated in the L Word

Hasbian: A straight woman who once identified as a lesbian. “I was a lesbian once.”

Head Band Lesbian: A sporty type of androgynous lesbian. They are neither femme nor butch. Generally involved in sports, this group can be spotted by their thick headbands that hold stray hairs that don’t fit into their ponytails in place.

Lesbro: A lesbian’s best friend. Usually, a lesbro is either a male or a stud.

Pillow Princess: A femme who receives MouthAction but never gives.

Pitbull Stud, Bull Dyke: An aggressive, alpha
(or they think they’re alpha, rather) stud.

Stem or Stemme, also known as a chapstick
lesbian: A cross between femme and stud Stemmes often dress in male apparel, but still have feminine qualities.

Syke-a-Dyke: A female who believes herself to be a lesbian but eventually goes back to men.

New Lez: A recently “out” lesbian.

Stone Butch, Touch-me-not: I have already
covered the term “butch,” however, these type of lesbians prefers to only please their partner, instead of being pleasured in return as well.

Studsband, Stubby: A stud wife.

S4S: “Stud for stud.” A stud who is interested in relationships, either sexual or emotional, with another stud.

U-Haul: U-hauling is the act of moving in
together within a short time of knowing each other.

Wusband: A term for married lesbian folks. A cross between a wife and a husband.

@sacredsilent, people dont just fluctuate, except they're bi-curious or bisexual. People differ, lesbians differ, so do gays.

LGBT-friendly Christians have taken their 'I'm
Sorry' campaign to Chicago Pride since 2010.

It was an unlikely sight: a group of Christians at Chicago Pride parade stood in front of protesters with signs apologizing to the LGBT community. The “I’m Sorry” campaign, created by the Marin Foundation , was conceived as a means for Christians to apologize to the ways their fellow believers have caused harm.
The foundation has become a fixture in Chicago's Boystown neighborhood, working with both conservative and progressive religious entities to create safer spaces for LGBT people. The foundation's approach has received both praise and harsh criticisms from both LGBT and Christian activists. Its work has also won awards, invitations to the White House, and contract work with the United Nations.
The “I’m Sorry” campaign started in 2010 at Chicago Pride and since has spread to multiple cities, including Los Angeles, Atlanta, and even Sydney. “We view this campaign as our commitment to making the first step towards
relational reconciliation in a tangible way,” says the Marin Foundation’s website in explaining the campaign.

The campaign took off in 2010 after a photo of Andrew Marin, founder of the Marin Foundation, went viral; being shared over 34 million times. The photo was of Marin hugging a paradegoer who was in his underwear and Marin’s blog post “I hugged a Man in His Underwear. And I’m Proud.” told the story of a straight, white, male Christian being sorry for his former homophobic ways. The picture made the #1 spot on Buzzfeed’s “21 Pictures That’ll Restore Your Faith In Humanity.”
Four years later, the campaign is going strong with a record number of participants. “In the midst of our country’s cultural shift where many, including evangelical Christians, are moving toward a more progressive and, I would contend, Christ-centered understanding in discussions surrounding the intersection of faith, gender, and sexuality — there is a need for some folks to acknowledge the harm done toward the LGBTQ community in the name of
God and religion,” Marin Foundation executive
director Michael Kimpan tells The Advocate. “The 'I’m Sorry' campaign provides such an opportunity, to offer an apology and reparations face to face, building bridges of reconciliation between those who once spoke words of hate and intolerance and now desire to speak words and actions of love.”
Kimpan wrote a refection piece on the experience on his personal site, saying LGBT people passing by protesters were challenging him to be a better Christian. The parade participants marched by protesters and responded to the hate with “We still love you!” and “Even though you hate us, we love
you!”

Despite the hate-filled protesters, Kimpan said, love prevailed because love is and always will be louder. See photos below and on the following pages:

Scaredsilent: Thanks for the positive advise. I get what you mean. I think I feel the same way afraid of disappointing the other person. Its some sort of responsibility issue I have.

I wish i can remember the situation if it was a traumatic experience. I cant remember a lot of my childhood

As for sleeping with girls. I am not really attracted to femininity. it more of softness and dependence. They call my stereotype a BOTTOM Gay. I don't act feminine but I Just feel safe with some one in charge or a guy around. (Sound twisted).

There also another stereotype call TOP Gays... they are more of active partners like to take charge and stuff(The Man in the relationship). I used to think they were just str8 guys who could sleep with guys or bisexuals. But I have meet a few who solely like guys. They like guy who depend on them and stuff. (Man in the relationship). I myself though gay, don't understand their stereotype.

In short humanity is complicated. I am still discovering my sexuality

@bolded, seriously? are you for real? What stereotype are you on about? its everywhere, in every relationship, one has to be stubborn and the other, hesitant, i guess. Even in gay relationships, one plays the female and the other (she)male(as is my case, im not male, so its 'she'male ). One is tough, the other is tender(not feeble/week). That's just how it is in relationships, gay or gay straight.

masonkz: I'd rather opt to not be married at all.

Same with me bro, except there's a cogent reason why my woman really needs the cettificate/document, if not, I'm satisfied with cohabitation.
Marriage is over-rated to me.

I hate bras, I don't wear any.

masonkz: Lol. It's his choice GSKing, and as much as we try, that is the reality of MOST gay men in Nigeria.

The society has left us with no much choice, especially you've decided to live in Nigeria all your life.

The people that end up suffering indirectly are the women. cos there is absolutely no way a gay man won't wanna be with another guy at a point in time during the marriage.

If only women knew about all these, then they, in turn, will definitely support gay rights in Nigeria.

Am I the only one here with a stone cold heart? Am I the only one here that have chosen not to get married to whoever I can't be with? This is one sad news I can't wrap my head around.

Well, the cycle never ends

Cyrus Levi: Marry a wife,make her happy and thou shalt not keep other companies.

Why would you tell him that? He's gay for pete's sake!

Scaredsilent: I don't care what he does to the thread. I try to look at the positive and not the negative. i have already gotten something from you that i will add to my life. Keep the additions take out the negatives.

What did you mean by hating cowards?

@bolded means that it would have been painful to me if you had let jamie intimidate you out of your own thread. I love how you stood your ground on the matter, I wanted you to challenge him out of the thread too.

Scaredsilent: I dont get you Jamie dear... What is your point. My thread was a simple question. So far you have not giving any constructive advise. So far all you said is that I am confused, not bright, and am calling you a homophobe now you want to ruin the thread...

I have already gotten good advise from GSking, Its a free world say what u like... hopefully vistors would get the good part of this thread and not your negative energy.

Lol, im just laughing here shaa, i know i hate cowards and intimidation. I hate bullies too but if you only know what jamie and his friends does to thread they don't like, you'll just laugh with me

please guys, calm it already...
