Well if he believes everything in the bible then he does indeed need educating.

Exactly it shouldn't be taken so absolutely. The bible reflects the views of the time it was made in and i think the more wiser Christians are able to distinguish the difference between the good(love,kindness,charitable,compassion,empathy,respect) and the bad(violence,judgemental,anti gay, outdated views on women). Even if there is a Christian god we can't know for sure everything in the bible represents his true feelings, the bible is a book written by man which could have easily had it's messages manipulated and distorted over time. Think about it who is to say back when the book was newly created that a person didn't edit the book for their own agendas and beliefs? It would be very ironic if the most 'devout' christians were in fact following edited man made lies and not the true message their god had wished to convey.

A god if it exists would be incredibly wise and considering it would have chosen to give life to us all (including animals) i truly doubt it would wish us to be cruel to one another. That applies to all gender/race/sexuality/nationality and if anyone truly believes their god wishes people to be punished or discriminated against because of adults having a consensual relationship that harms no other, well then they clearly think very little of their god because it creates gay people then condemns them that is sick and cruel.

I'm just sorry he hasn't become open minded and tries to divert away and hides being "the people count, not my opinion". He deserves what he gets. No sympathy for his treatment from me. He is a coward and his type of people are one lf tje main problems with the world and cause nothing but misery. I'm just sorry his mind never cjanged amd never will.

Of course it is. Its a bunch of fairy tales written to manipulate people to hate certain types of people. If god loves us all - then he would of loved us for being gay.

Thank you for such a great reply to my post.

Here, here.

It was uncomfortable viewing tbh I had to turn off.. I felt sick that another human would do that do someone.. sick show.

I would have liked to have seen without BBs interference if Winston would have changed any of his views if he had spent more time in the company of John and Chris. He seemed to be getting on with most of them up until the moment BB shafted him.

Thanks for appreciating what i was saying.

He was getting on absolutely fine with John and Chris in fact (much to the producers' annoyance I imagine).

There is pretty strong evidence to support that being exactly what did happen. In the first place the bible wasn't written as a single book. It is a collection of writings, essays and journals (as we might classify them today) written in the early 1st century.

The editing which took the form of choosing which articles to include in the collection and which to surpress took place decades later by the early (Catholic) church.

There loads missing that the Catholic church have removed.
That why it's abit comfusing till you have read the rest of them.
I have never read them myself.

Agree.
I didn't agree with his opinion, yet we all have opinions on stuff, which some of us will disagree with. We are all entitled to one.
Think the whole house or some of the housemates could of dealt with it better.

Interesting, this is why i could never place all my faith in a book from times before we kept archived copies in libraries and online. I would be interested to see which stuff has been removed or suppressed by the catholic church and the reasons why.

The Bible had very little to say about homosexuality and Jesus was surprisingly relaxed about the subject of sexuality and liked the company of women and had female friends. All of the repressed stuff seems to have come from the Church in subsequent centuries.

ok , so - what did Winston choose to do with his opinion that was so problematic ?


.

Winston never said anything about homosexuality or gay adoption in the house and was getting on absolutely fine with the gay housemates (much to the annoyance of the producers I imagine, who then decided to ambush him).

As far as BB goes he seems to have chosen to keep quiet about it until they forced the issue.

When he came out, he started talking about his experience in the house, until Emma shut him down. He said something that made me think there was hope for him to change his views. Thanks to KT_Dog's transcript thread, I can show you what I'm talking about:


He didn't get the opportunity to go any further than that. Maybe, just maybe, he was saying that he felt he could learn from meeting different kinds of people.
