Preach Pastor, Preach!

Scavella is not God's press agent.

My God it took a SDA preacher to come out first at bat swinging.....but he is speaking truth,but we have a lot of gay pastors and bishops who will marry alot of ppl same sex ppl for the almighty dollar because mammon is there god........but I say repent all you gay people and yall supporters ..repent or may the earth open up and swallow you whole,or may fire from heaven fall on you immediately...

Agreed Banker..

I have no interest in what people do in private. But there is no adjective that can sanitize gay behavior. Having the anus as a pivotal "position" of sexual activity is just plain gross and nasty!

Oh really now. God took you Comrade Scavella into his divine confidence to tell you that? How special of Him.
Comrade Preacherman's Proverbs should have taught anyone wishing to enter the ministry that there are six things that the Lord hates, seven that are an abomination to him: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that devises wicked plans, feet that make haste to run to evil, a false witness who breathes out lies, and one who sows discord among brothers and sisters. We eyes are haughty when we look down at other people as if they are lower or lesser than we are. For no other than we see them as being too damn different.
Let us all pray that your decision not to marry any couple, regardless of their sexual makeup or religion is ranked a distant second to the loving relationship of the marrying couple. Wasn't too long ago when a practicing Catholic would not have even been welcomed to sit in the pews at many churches across our Bahamaland. Thankfully, we have matured as Christians and those days are long gone?
I can think of so many other pressing issues that urgently need to be addressed that would exhaust all the time our preacherman’s are spending on this one single issue.
Over many, many years The Seventh-day Adventist Church's have accomplished so much with their ministry across our Bahamaland. Why spoil it now? I too was educated at your school on Wulf Road.

Amen!

TalRussell, I was there from grades one to form four. Not my favourite learning institution. My aunt taught first grade for many, many years.

Pastor Scavella, Am with your thoughts, but the (LGBT) will have their way. I can see at the end of it all. GOD WILL SORT THEM OUT, FOR SURE.

so yall gingoks and gingok lovers can express yall belief and opinions and this Scavella cant...hypocrisy of the highest....from time ppl always wants to control preacher..tell him what to say or what not to say!..Are yall God or gods or just mere men like the rest of us..who needs guidance..from God Almighty....God in His all knowing all wisdom told His ppl the Jews(his earthly chosen ppl)and us christians(his Spiritual ppl) that if we want to live long ,if we want to prosper as a nation...how to treat one another and how to abstain from certain practices ,like homosexuality,withcraft human sacrifices adultery incest ...in order to continually be bless and sickness free..from generation to generation.......heed Gods word or perish...Righteousness still exalts a nation.

Salem witch trails, inquisition, Jihadist, mid east conflict, september 11, conflict in Ireland, slavery, etc etc I can go on forever about the hertrosities committed or justified in the name God. Using scriptures considering the murderous history of religion y'all cannot be serious. How many millions have died as a result of religious wars, persecution. Religion was used to justify slavery.

Shhhhh! Don't let them know that. They'll have heartaches if the realize religion has historically been used to rubber stamp hate crimes and the dehumanizing of people, mostly in respect to the Jews in the Christian context through biblical and recent history. They are ashamed of their failures of prayer and realization that their believed god didn't pick The Bahamas as his favorite team. So they got to make sure vent by using hate.

Good post Bahamianpride

What society is this man talking about based on Christian principles? Not that I care about living according to a book written 2,000 years ago but this corrupt, sweethearting, teenage baby making nation has nothing to do with Christian values. What people do in the privacy of their own homes of their own free will hurts nobody. Tired of these bible banging hypocrites telling people what to do.

Don't know where to begin with this dinosaur.

“The fabric of our society is based upon Christian principles." - are these the same Christian principles that see our brothers robbing, shooting and killing each other every night? Taking away that precious gift of life without a second thought? Those same Christian principles that are embodied by many married men committing adultery and neglecting their outside children yet sitting up in these same churches on a Sunday praising the Lord God Almighty? What about the members of your congregations who are giving and tithing (10% - HA!) to the Church but who are offering up larger sums Monday to Saturday at the illegal web shops waiting for their numbers to drop?

“The minute our Christian country begins to accept and to accommodate these types of behaviour, which in my view is going to eventually happen, all it means is that it weakens the fabric of the nation,” - The Bahamas will eventually accept, accommodate and end discrimination against ALL of its citizens so why don't we look at pushing that Agenda NOW to build up and strengthen the fabric of our country - a country that we can be proud of!

Scavella our beautiful country may have been built and founded on Christian principles but The Bahamas has NOT been a Christian nation for a long time and your bigoted interview above does nothing but prove that you are truly not a man of God.

Well said, I agree with you 100%. Bahamians have played the pretending game of being a Christian nation far too long. THERE IS NOTHING CHRISTIAN ABOUT THE BAHAMAS. Only in people minds.

The reproductive organs of a man and a woman were created or have evolved the way that they are for good functional and purposeful reasons; hence their well designed meaningful fit to one another is about as natural a thing as one will ever find anywhere in nature. The misuse of these organs is about as unnatural a misfit as one can possibly conjure up and by every standard of decency runs counter to or afoul of nature's own natural order of things. As for our body's waste disposal system, it is fully intended by design to be just that, and nothing more! Church leaders and decent God fearing Bahamians must implore Government to take an unequivocal stance in having marriage clearly defined in our constitution as a sacred union of a man and a woman to the exclusion of all other combinations of a union whether it be man and man, woman and woman, man and animal or woman and animal. The proposed legislation and related referendum questions as currently worded leave the door wide open to same-sex marriages and therefore should not be supported under any circumstance. VOTE NO YOURSELF AND TELL MANY OTHERS WHY THEY TOO MUST VOTE NO!

Utilize google you ignorant scab. Google homoesexuality in other animals.

We are humans, the highest form of animal on the planet. While you may wish to take us notches down the animal chain to suit whatever comparisons you wish to make, there are many more of us who choose to remain at the very top of the animal chain, which is a privileged position bestowed on us by the good Lord himself.

Well Mudda as the highest form of animal on the planet we have killed more people to prove who has the real sky god ,then both world wars combined ..The muslims got aways to go to catch up w/ the christians ,,,We have been here 4 million years and have made human sacrifices to the gods for at least 1/2 a million ,but in your mind 2000 yrs ago finally god got the blood he needed ..

It's OK, if you picture angels flying around heaven with beautiful wings. But do angels really have wings?
Comrades being a predominantly Christian Bahamaland does not require Sunday morning Church attendance. Hopefully, it will forever remain a Sunday morning attendance option. But to list your profession as a Preacherman's does expect you as in any job you hold to be well versed-in the tools of your chosen profession. if the Bible is pretty your tool then you shout not only have read it many times over, you should both understated and be able to interrupt what Jesus practiced and preached during his 33 short years on earth. Not too many Preacherman's does realize that many of the most iconic features of Christianity were never mentioned by the the very Bible they preach from on Sunday mornings and nights. Find just one mention of angels donning beautiful wings anywhere in Bible? Give no thanks to God but to the artistic expressions of mankind deciding he wanted angels to best resemble, yes wings and all.

I'm confused...is Paul Scavella not a homosexual himself? :S

rumor has it....

Comrades if there is sexual revolution evolving in we Bahamaland, I can more picture some transgender with they flapping angel wings. Can't you?

Good tactic but I don't buy your attempt to deflect the disgust towards the homosexual lifestyle onto the pastor.Being gay is synonymous with been confused.

Comrades I thanking my sweet Jesus for guiding me tune-in Steve McKinney's Talk Show this glories gaining knowledge day, cause how else would I now know how a new-born kangaroo does fall from they mommy's vagina? Oh, yes I knows. So informed too why elephants don't go no hospital when they's feeling sick. Plan on tuning-in on Monday, no telling if they might cover lubrication?. They talking now about hard-on's. Like I say, I couldn't possibly make this stuff up

For thousands of years marriage was accepted to be between a man and a woman. When Columbus got to the Bahamas that was what he met in place here by the Indians and it was good, now in the past 15 years it suddenly looks wrong.. hell no! its still right!

@tiger B when Columbus got to the Bahamas there was no marriage. Many Native American (or First Nations for Canadians) tribes recognised gay people as "two spirit" people and held them in high regard. Maybe, just for fun, read a book sometime.

these ppl chose this lifestyle ,choose to be transgendered gayed,bisexual,chose to be pedophiles ..now they talking abt rights and same sex marriages.

If youll want earthquakes and cataglory 5 hurricanes and an economic collapse vote yes!

I am sick and tired of everybody finding excuses for this lewd and immoral behavior which they are trying to impose on Godfearing people.HOMOSEXUALITY IS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NOTHING CAN MAKE IT RIGHT!if you follow the teachings of the bible you will find that god destroyed SODOM AND GOMMORAH FOR THIS WICKED PRACTICE.These so called activists are nothing but a bunch of demons pushing their evil agenda.

Imposing? The only imposing force is the force that seeks to limit, abuse and create disenfranchised groups of of society. Maybe you can't handle your own emotions when you see someone of another persuasion. Maybe it's taunting because when you wanted to express your queer side you were made a shame of. So how dare they desire to do it shame free in the OPEN! Maybe like you they'll hide it away under super charged hetersexuality an religiousity. God also killed for eating shell fish, not screaming when being raped, mixing fabrics, mixing cheese and meat, etc. If you felt this way, every time you see a freaking Whopper w/ Cheese you must have a breakdown and take aspirin because your heart palpitating from all the imposed immorality.
