Caleb/UNIBAM Wants To Be On Morality Commission
posted (September 9, 2016)
But no one is going to police Caleb Orozco's morality. He today stressed that as a citizen he is entitled to certain inalienable individual rights. He added that if the Government is determined to be fair, the Prime Minister will invite him and members of UNIBAM as members this Church State Commission:...

"You and your lifestyle are considered very much outside what is considered morally right in this church environment, so why would they want to invite you and your organization as a member to make your concerns heard?"

"If we still live under the ideals of the constitution which recognizes the diversity of groups, it's only fair to invite the most marginalized to the table to carry out a dialogue which benefits all Belizeans. If we were to be excluded, then it is important to remember that the ministers, be religious and political have their own moral closet which they need to look into and I need not speak very hard or too far about what their issues are. If it's a process of building peace and understanding and its value about building peace and understanding, we will be included without question."

Orozco tells us that he is waiting for the Prime Minister to invite him to a meeting, the very same way that he granted a church that audience. The Prime Minister told us at the press conference he is prepared to grant that meeting. He also added that a working group for this Church State Commission should meet on September 26, to determine the terms of reference for this new commission. Deputy Prime Minister Patrick Faber will head this commission.
