Jamaican Reverend Dr. Marjorie Lewis spoke out yesterday against Prime Minister Bruce Golding’s anti-gay ways, including his prohibition on installing queers in his cabinet: “I don’t agree with the prime minister. I don’t agree with it. ‘No gays in the Cabinet?’ First of all how you even know who gay? Plenty married people in this country are gay. It is what the Americans call the down-low. Friends, we are not talking about people outside of church, you know,” Lewis said. “Let us just be real. We are talking about what is happening in our churches and we have to name the truth and face the truth in the name of Jesus.” [Jamaica Gleaner]
