Funny thing is I DO trust one entertainment medium to give a truthful
account of historical events. I am referring to Howard Fast's novel: "My
Glorious Brothers." This novel describes the revolt of the Maccabees of
Israel against the homosexual oppression committed against Israel by the
successors of Alexander of Macedonia (a.k.a. "Alexander the Great"). I
refer to the Maccabees as My Glorious Ancestors.
I can never understand why the Ku Klux Klan insists that the Kink James
version of the Christian Bible is the only legitimate version. Kink James
the First of England, as is well known, was a homosexual. Now, I don't know
anything about biblical scholarship. In place of biblical scholarship I use
common sense. The Roman Catholic (Douay) version of the Christian Bible
includes the books of the Maccabees in its version of the Old Testament.
Common sense tells me that the books of the Maccabees were excluded from
the Kink James version of the Christian Bible in order to conform to the
pro-homosexual feelings of Kink James.
If you look at "The Oxford Annotated Bible with the Apocrypha, Revised
Standard Version", New York, Oxford University Press, 1965. Turn to page
221, (The pagination is somewhat confusing. It goes up to page 1544 and
then starts over again. I am referring to the second cycle of pages.) it
sez: "The style of 1 Maccabees is plain and straightforward and the book is
generally an excellent historical source...."
You will notice the messages in soc.culture.african.american vilifying me
in the strongest possible terms. These messages are motivated by my
denunciations of NAMBLA, an organization of homosexual child-molesters. In
the view of most of the homosexuals who post messages on Usenet, if one is
opposed to homosexual child-molesting, then one is a "homophobe."
I don't know how many people who read soc.culture.african.american remember
certain events which occurred in 1978. Here is what happened. Bernard
Gifford, a Black official in the New York City educational system decided
to run for the office of United States Congressman. I have forgotten
exactly what position he held. It was either Assistant Superintendent of
Schools, Deputy Superintendent of Schools, or something like that. He was
running in the Democratic Party Primary in a congressional district which
included Brooklyn Heights. His opponent was Frederick Richmond. Richmond
had recently been arrested for offering money to an underage Black boy for
an act of homosexual sex. Richmond somehow managed to worm himself out of a
criminal conviction.
Edward I. Koch, who was New York City's homosexual mayor at that time, and
who had expressed himself in the strongest possible terms as opposed to
heterosexual prostitution, endorsed Richmond for re-election to Congress.
Gifford made an issue of the fact that Richmond had offered this underage
Black boy money for sex. For campaigning on this issue, Gifford was
denounced as a "homophobe."
As the saying goes: "The more things change, the more they remain the
same." THAT'S why I am getting all of this vilification. That's why the
overwhelming majority of homosexuals who post messages on Usenet consider
me to be, among other things: "A Hateful Subhuman."
