LGBT Issues In Hindu Forward Communities
Sometime back I posted an article on the views of Hinduism on LGBT. The post received good response and many with this issue have written to me saying that th post helped them mentally. Yet members of some communities i Facebook of which I am a member, felt that these issues are in bad taste and some communities have even removed the post. Hinduism is a way of Life…By adopting an Ostrich like attitude, one faces on certain issues, much more serious issues later that would arise because of this. Problems are to be addressed to and not wished away, thinking that if we do not think about them , it would disappear. There is this attitude of taking no decision, a modern western concept of course,justifying that the problem would solve itself.

LGBT Hinduism Accepts Understands
Hinduism accepts Eunuchs,Transvestite, Homosexuality,Lesbianism.Bisexuality as Natural. Ardhanareswara, Lord Krishna marrying Irvana,Arjuna becoming Bruhannala,Mandhafha being born of a Man,Chanda -Chamundi ,Bhagavathi, Yellamma, the Birth of Lord Ayyapa.Lord Muruga are indicative of what is now termed as Normal Sexual Behavior. In most cases it is explained that one takes the Form of he other sex,like Bruhannala, or Lord Krishna becomes a woman . All said and done there is evidence that Hinduism did not treat this a s Deviant Behavior, it was not condescending towards them nor were they extended special privileges. These were not ostracized by the society,nor were they looked upon condescendingly. Rigveda says regarding Samsara that Vikruti Evam Prakriti (perversity/diversity is what nature is all about, or, what seems un-natural is also natural), which some scholars believe recognizes the cyclical constancy of homosexual/transsexual dimensions of human life, like all forms of universal diversities.[38] People of a third gender (tritiya-prakriti), not fully men nor women, are mentioned here and there throughout Hindu texts such as the Puranas but are not specifically defined. In general they are portrayed as effeminate men, often cowardly, and with no desire for women. Modern readers often draw parallels between these and modern stereotypes of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender sexual identities. However some Smritis censure them,like Manu, though ot severely. They took part in all Vedic activities , they were not prohibited from Religious or Spiritual activity. However the Vishnu Puran says hat the Eunuchs should not be present when one is performing Sradha. So, Hinduism does not treat LGBT as Deviants, not dos it treat them with special privileges. Such is the greatness of Hinduism it accepts Nature as it is without delivering Value judgements on what is essentially a natural Phenomenon

“Keynes Gay” Ferguson Apology Why
Harvard History Professor Niall Ferguson tendered an unconditional Apology for his remark at a conference in California on Thursday about John Maynard Keynes that the economist John Maynard Keynes did not care about society’s future because he was gay and had no children. Be that as it may, it is a fact that Keynes was a Homosexual. He had no children. There can be no objection to stating the facts. His Economic Theories, as I have remarked in various posts, have wreaked havoc, take for instance, Argentina, Ireland,Greece. The other countries’ woes have not been publicized. His Capitalistic outlook can be gleaned from,Precisely the reason why the World is going through Economic upheavals by following this non sense. Ferguson, as a professor of History, has passed an opinion most of them facts, excepting the part about,’ people with no children having no vision of welfare of the Society” I see no point in objecting to the statement of Ferguson…

Gay Marriage Case US Supreme Court,Constitutional ? Audio Text
The Gay Marriage issue has hotted up in The US, the case has reached The Supreme Court for hearing and is being hotly debated. What has hitherto an aberration in Behavior, has been taken as sanctioned socially. They may not agree that it has never been an aberration. The whole issue snowballed into a Legal and Constitutional Controversy because California vetoed Gay Marriage and a Couple (Gay) have approached the Court for marriage. Gay Marriage has now become an issue of Constitutional importance involving the the Defense of Marriage Act of 1996 is unconstitutional. What beats me is the argument that the Homosexuals couples want to be treated on par with hetero sexual couples! The very terms used to denote these groups distinctly is, because of their difference, behaviour. It is like making a Circle equal to a Square! What exactly are these people demanding now? To be treated on par with hetero sexual Family and the benefits? You want the approval of the Society? You did not listen to the objection of the majority, normal one at that,of going Homosexual, citing all and sundry arguments to justify not-normal behaviour! You went ahead. Why do you seek approval from the Society , only to claim the benefits from the Society? Or respect and regards from the people? This is obtained by vilification or arguments but by adhering to Social Norms. Since you chose a different path, have a set of rules and benefits among yourselves for yourselves. Well. you can not eat the cake and have it too.

‘Be Gay Bishops,But No Sex’ Church.
In a typical double speak, Church of England has allowed Gays to be Bishops or (is it that Bishops who are Gay are allowed?) There are accepted though gays, but one glitch is the directive “Do not have Sex’ What exactly these jokers mean? By nature the Church is hypocritical and English, master of Double-speak. When these come together, this will be the result. How do these Eminences proceed from here?

Gay Marriage,Don’t Fault the Catholic Church.
Is the author saying that the Gay Marriage is to be sanctified by the Church? He does not seem o believe in The Old Testament. If The Old Testament is to be questioned, The New Testament has no place , as The Old Testament is Primary. The question of a Religion sanctifying Gay marriage does not arise. […]
