    My uncle is a pastor and I tried to tell everybody in my family that he is gay because he talks about homosexuals a lot (he doesn't have a problem with them). He keeps articles on gay men, welcomes open discussions about gay men, he mock and jokes about them, got their moves down right to a T; additionally, he tells of stories of his past about being approached by gay men while in high school. Yet, people allow him to still preach in their pulpits.

    Funny enough, I actually thought he was gay and that he was initially supported gay men living their truth instead of being down low, until I listened further. I agree with about how many issues the down low behavior creates, HIV, etc. But when he started to demonize gay men in general, I was done. God made all of us, gay, straight, etc. Who are we to judge? Ppl should mind their business, live their lives and respect people, period.

    He needs to accept his own feminine, soft qualities which are clear in his interview. His emphasis on "masculine" may well reflect his own preference. But his comments regarding "demonic origins" are likely to result in "demonization" of people who need love, support, and acceptance. Rather than cast stones, he should confess his own sins.

    Aside from what has happened as the result of mass incarceration of black males - the downlow thing is far from a phenomenon Sir. As a Pastor and one who's supposed to have prophetic abilities and discernment - this pastor and people like him should know that this is far from new! I've done videos on the matter and I am also a particular age and was born with the gift to see beyond the veil and there's no doubt that this so called 'dl' thing has always been apart of humanity... The difference is that the introduction of HIV/AIDS exposed it... Then came gay men and former DL men exposing it during the rise of the talk show era and now, the exposure, stories and testimonies of this so called 'phenomenon' has blown up to epic proportions due to everybody having access to the world wide net. Prior to all of the aforementioned - these DL types were mostly unheard of and invisible but they were surely getting it IN on the low! No doubt about it!

    I agree with the latter, but children in EVERY culture get rejected and abandoned in one way or another. And it's taking a toll on society as a whole. It's like people (especially black people) tend to be consumed with praising certain ethnicities or what have you. But the Lord have allowed me to see tremendous dysfunction in ALL walks of life, from ALL types of people. Black, white, rich, poor whatever the case maybe. People need to stop looking at and to everyone else to be their hero, example, or savior. And look to God as to what He want you to do about the subject matter that you speak of. You can end up changing the lives of children in your area, neighborhood, neck of the woods by creating and developing some type of program/organization from the youth. And will provide you with the knowledge, resources, and help to carry it ALL out, in due time, if it's HIS will for your life. And for you to be a positive impact in those children's lives. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen. I pray your strength in the Lord, and I pray that you choose to grow in His knowledge, wisdom, love, joy, understanding, strength, peace, insight, perspective, and discernment. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. We have ALL been created for a season and purpose for a reason, for such a time as this. But most of us choose to make excuses, talk about those that are trying to make a change for the better, or whatever the case maybe. We must choose to stop talking about it and choose to be about it. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. What God do for one HE WILL do for the other. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. AMEN.

You are free to call me whatever name you choose but as a Christian, I must stand for what God stands for. I do believe that the church focuses on homosexuality over other sins(adultery,fornication,lying,stealing,covetousness,etc..) and that is wrong. But in the end, all unrighteousness is sin.

Someone just gave it the name download in recent years and that term became catchy or trendy but there have always been undercover gay men in all communities as well as women but in terms of the black male not being able to be free about his sexuality or choosing not to be honest about a sexuality and entering into these relationships and co-parenting and marriages with women being deceitful is the problem with any DL men not just the black man

    Unfortunately, most people in church are considered what I call, "conditioned readers." It's when you are hammered information before you read the information for proper comprehension and context. The Romans basically took over Jerusalem in a war and its Jew/Hebrew religion. The religious takeover wasn't going over as well as the Romans would have liked. There were many insurgencies and rebellions brought on by those Black Jews who were trying to take back Jerusalem from the Romans, their most Holy City. The Black Jews saw their city destroyed and their religion hijacked by the "Romans." Even the teachings of Jesus was hijacked by the Romans and redacted, leaving traces of His teachings in the mix of their redacted spin. As such, the Black Church inherited the redacted teachings via Slave-masters or what is presently called Wht Supremacy. If you look at Romans, chapter 1 carefully, the problem begin when the Gentiles began to change (redact) the truth about God, placing more emphasis on the "creation" rather than the "Creator." As such, their behavior was plethora of things. Their suffering came from "within." However, other concerns were at hand founded below in verses 30-32. These issues were equally important, if not more! If you note, ppl focus mostly on sex, rather than the other offenses. Why? It's called "conditioned reading." It's when you have a prejudice before you read. In this video, homo-sex is now the in all, be all. That's called discrimination and cherry picking. The church is guilty of framing an institution which encourages ppl to live a lie so that other may feel comfortable. Romans 1:30-32 NLT - They are backstabbers, haters of God, insolent, proud, and boastful. They invent new ways of sinning, and they disobey their parents. They refuse to understand, break their promises, are heartless, and have no mercy. They know God’s justice requires that those who do these things deserve to die, yet they do them anyway. Worse yet, they encourage others to do them, too. For those who care, please read Ezekiel 16 in its entirety. First, read the New Living Translation then the KJV. I hope I helped in some small way... bless all who are striving to live the best lives they can.

But the real point I am trying to make is YOU DO NOT KNOW! His sexuality does not nullify the information he is trying to impart. Tyler Perry is also being judged and his sexuality is under question. I don't get what difference does it make. I thought we were supposed to be about the business of loving and helping each other, not judging and labeling each other.

I say make your sexual preference and status information to be put on drivers license and/or state ID with the info updated at the times when license are renewed. Im already prepared for the backlash this is going to bring so before you start what's your solution.

    First off, to MaxxRedSox, I am so sorry that as a child you had to feel like something was wrong with you. I don't think any child, or anyone for that matter, should feel that way. Unfortunately, our society hasn't grasped the fact that everything isn't always black and white. In most cases, there is always a gray area and I guess being gay would be that gray area. But like I said I'm completely happy with my sexuality and glad that at a young age I embraced it. You should be proud also.

    Black men and women need to use protection. Black men and women need to have themselves tested. This goes the individual. Also, if HIV was for gay people then straight people wouldn't be affected. The virus affects T helper cells in the immune system of HUMANS. The first cases were found in gay men. That is probly because gay men exchange more bodily fluids than lesbians. This cat needs to read some more about HIV. Plus, the church is supposed to be for ALLLLLLLLLLLLLL. It is not just for who share your sin. I welcome any comments😊.

    Instead of choosing to condemn and be disgusted by it. You need to PRAY against these things. Come to yourself and fast and pray. For some things only come by fasting and praying. If my people humble themselves and pray, then I will forgive them of their sins, and hear from them, and heal their land. The problem is MOST people refuse and don't choose to humble themselves and pray and seek repentance. What do they choose to do instead? They choose to bash people, judge, condemn, ridicule, laugh at, and mock people. And that ISN'T good for anyone. They already do that to themselves, and the enemy do that as well. He use condemnation to keep people bound folks. When are we ever going to learn? My people are destroyed due to a lack of knowledge. Not because God isn't giving it to us, but because we refuse to accept it, embrace it, feed off of it, and live off of it and by it. We are to consumed with being bound by the religious and Jezebel spirit. Which only create more drama, division, strife, malice, and chaos in the body of Christ. We need to choose to get it together, and we need to choose to do it GOD'S way and GOD'S way alone. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH. AMEN. Or not at all. The problem is that we choose to be lukewarm and double minded. Lord have mercy. Lord please help us, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen. Lord have mercy on our souls. Many of us think this is a game or a joke, and that we obtain information like this, because we are supposed to be the judge and executor. And that's not the case. That's the farthest thing from the truth, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen.

    The reason there is such an epidemic of DL living is because so many people choose to reject the truth of God and His wisdom on how we should live and love and respect each other. We also have this problem because too many black folks are too lazy to take the time to study the Bible for themselves and to understand what God says about repentence & clean living. Black christian men reject homosexuality. God doesn't call people to unholiness, but righteousness. Trust God.

I'm very lonely right now, but I am not attracted to women. I have breast and look just like a woman and I just see myself dying a lonely person so that my soul can be saved! What a bummer!

    I agree on that completely. I think the community actually has enough issues to make or influence DL to continue. In and of itself DL is a private individual issue. I dont know if its worth it to discuss it much. The root problems havent really been addressed such as how people process forces around them and the low education acumen in the community even the churches are behind these days. I could just go on and on.

    Celibate. And you are NOT free of deceptions. You are cynical and pessimistic, which is NOT a good way to be either. Don't be trying to force that mindset on other people. Because that is NOT of GOD either. In any fashion, shape, or form whatsoever, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. If GOD told someone that they are to be single, not marry, and focus on doing His will. Then that is different. But you should NEVER choose to be single based off of fear, and making assumptions that your life will be better because of it. I know PLENTY of single, unhappy, bitter, toxic, and miserable people. PLENTY OF THEM, and that's NOT GOD'S will for their lives, in Jesus name. Amen.
