Now, I don't know if the government's motivation in instituting the moratorium was the fear that foreign aid would be cut off, but let's assume that the bishops are correct. They are saying quite clearly, in a document that is otherwise primarily about holding the government accountable for its responsibilities to help the poor, that if the choice is between helping the poor and throwing the filthy queers in prison, the bishops would prefer that the the filthy queer be thrown in prison even if it means that the poor will go hungry.We agree with those who have faulted the Government for putting a moratorium on laws governing homosexual acts. This means that those guilty of homosexual acts or unions cannot be prosecuted. The Government has bowed down to pressure from donor community, international bodies and local human rights campaigners. As Pastors, we find this path very unfortunate. It is an act of betrayal on the part of those in power to sell our country to foreign practices and tendencies contrary to the will of God because of money.
That's Christian charity for you.
