FULL TITLE: 700 Kenyan Evangelical Pastors Urge Obama Not to 'Preach' Gay Marriage Support During Visit; Archbishop Accuses Obama of 'Ruining' American Society

President Barack Obama has been urged by the Evangelical Alliance of Kenya, comprised of 700 pastors, not to "preach" and impose his views in support of same-sex marriage on the Kenyan people when he visits the African country in July.

"We would like to send a strong message to the U.S. president that the homosexuality debate should not become part of his agenda, as it has been his tendency whenever he comes to Africa," Bishop Mark Kariuki of the Evangelical Alliance, told the Kenyan Daily Nation newspaper on Monday.

"[Obama] should respect the faith, culture and people of Kenya when he comes in July," he added. "He should not put [homosexuality] as one of his main agenda[s] in the country."

The pastors said in a separate statement that "President Barack Obama is welcome to visit Kenya this summer — but please, leave the preaching to us."

Good luck with that Kenyan Pastors.
Their message should have been a bit harsher. Rather than:
"President Barack Obama is welcome to visit Kenya this summer — but please, leave the preaching to us."

They should have said that President Barack Obama is not welcome to visit if he insists on promoting the sin of homosexuality.

Now that they brought up the issue, Bath House will definitely poke the stick in their eye.

"[Obama] should respect the faith, culture and people of Kenya when he comes in July,"

Obama should resect the faith, culture and people of America EVERY DAY, but he doesn't.
