Ja doesn’t need to follow LGBTQ+ agenda

THE EDITOR, Madam:

The world is changing rapidly and Jamaica seems content to dance to the beat of drums from other nations. This is not new, but now is not the time to ‘follow fashion’, because a lot of what is currently fashionable flies in the face of God.

We do not need to add the unnatural spectre of the LGBTQI+ agenda to our existing societal sins.

America, Europe and large, English-speaking countries may be powerful and wield a lot of influence, but are not always right. Search the Internet and look at the LGBTQI+ Pandora’s box that America and Canada opened. Look at the damage it is doing to their societies. We don’t need that in Jamaica. We should not allow ourselves to be charmed by what is wrong, no matter whose mouth it comes from.

If people want to sin in private we can’t stop them, but we should be able to stop them from publicly promoting their sin as righteous, and bullying society to accept it as normal.

African leaders firmly and diplomatically rejected outsider promotion of homosexuality in their lands. They didn’t cast stones at the outsiders (we all sin, don’t we?), but didn’t remain silent, either. I hope Jamaica does the same.
