PM: Church must stick to beliefs
The Church faces a dilemma when it comes to homosexuality and same-sex marriage but it must not compromise its beliefs and principles.
So said Prime Minister Freundel Stuart, in a wide-ranging address to the second Caribbean Provincial Congress of the Anglican Church at the University of the West Indies yesterday.
Stuart said there were going to be activists who, in order to try to win the argument on same-sex relationships and homosexuality, would approach it from a position of human rights.
The Prime Minister, who gave a historical perspective on the Caribbean family since slavery to present, described the issue of same-sex relationships as “a very sensitive subject”.
