In the Spirit of Sankofa and Peace and Love!
Besides you two, there are other sources, sister Amnatt77, and as far as I know, you and I are good, at least we started off that way, you tell me.
Uganda is not the only African nation taking legal action against homosexuals. In Malawi, two gay men were arrested immediately following a same-sex marriage ceremony held in December. And, last week, five men in Kenya were arrested for helping plan a gay wedding. They were later released. Homosexuality is illegal in more than 30 African nations. South Africa is the only country on the continent to have legalized gay marriage.
NEARY: ...were hearing so much about this?
Ms. ABIOLA: Yes, absolutely, I think another thing that gives this even more prevalence is, you know, with Uganda the news that American evangelicals could possibly be involved, and also the small section of people that believe that homosexuality can be cured. And their impact on, you know, the shaping of this bill in Uganda has also allowed, you know, there to be even more attention on Uganda specifically. But its not really a new thing. Its been happening for a while.

Right, so lets break it down: you take the preacher 's assertions as truth (with no supporting evidence) when he says homosexuality is against African culture, and it is perfectly natural and ok to kill them. However I'm telling you the opposite, thats is.. the 'culture' he speaks off is actually CHRISTIANITY. Yet you take his word, just his word for it ...but negate my words?
Discriminate much Bro Clyde?.. I'm not gay you know just in case you're thinking I am coming from that angle
