Jamaica Gleaner Letters
published: Sunday | May 13, 2007

LETTER OF THE DAY - Homosexuality thwarts natural generation of life
The Editor, Sir: Concerning the article 'Timely article on gay tolerance', by Anthony MacFarlane, April 21, like Anthony MacFarlane, I live in Hamilton, Ontario, and I can assure all Jamaicans that contrary to MacFarlane's claim, there is no prominent researcher here in Hamilton that "has proved that without question sexual preference is established in the womb due to testosterone."

Jamaicans can learn to be tolerant!

The Editor, Sir: There have been many articles in your papers recently concerning gays, from news of mob beatings to opinions about tolerance. Debate is the best place to start. Dr. Orville Taylor raised some interesting points in his article 'Gays again?' (Gleaner 27/04/07).

Selassie our 'anointed one'

The Editor, Sir: This is in reply to Mr. Ray G. Stennett, published April 26. Psalms 82:6 states: "I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the Most High." So if you are biblically inclined, then clearly Selassie, as well as you and I, are 'gods'.

Inequity helps breed crime

The Editor, Sir: Please allow me to make an important point that seems to be taken out of the equation in all our political and economic fora whenever the topic of crime in Jamaica is mentioned.

Church must preach more basics

The Editor, Sir: I found the article 'Funeral rites and popular culture', which appeared in The Sunday Gleaner of April 29, rather amusing and much in line with the gospel of hypocrisy that is preached in Jamaica.
