The only good gay …
African leadership comes with some heavy ambiguities. Iain Dale draws attention to this simple political ad which has been banned in Zimbabwe, no doubt because like all-criticism of Mugabe it is pro-British and therefore oh-so-gay.
At the same time the so-called leaders of Anglican orthodoxy are meeting in Jerusalem. Prominent among them is Emmanuel Kolini, archbishop of Rwanda and competitor with Peter Akinola for the mantle of new Anglican pope.
Hmm. Rwanda. Morality. Well, I suppose that while there are a couple of disapproving references to same-sex activity in the Old Testament, there are an awful lot more approving references to God-commanded genocide.
Rwandan Christianity … leading the way back to biblical morality.

You too! I have always wondered about the strangeness of being lectured on morality by Rwandans, and Rwandan bishops as well!

Oh, and in case you think it’s just the Romans, have a look at this book or this archive.
