Archbishop Peter Akinola cites sheep sex arrest as proof of Britain's moral decline
Telegraph ^ | October 2, 2008 | Martin Beckford

Posted on 10/02/2008 9:51:41 AM PDT by Schnucki

Dr Akinola, the Primate of Nigeria and a leader of traditionalists worldwide, said the alleged offences of bestiality in south London showed how "spiritual degradation" was destroying the country's soul.

He also claimed the advent of civil partnerships for homosexual couples showed that politicians are "upturning the natural order" and doing away with God and family life.

Dr Akinola referred to the alleged farmyard sex crimes in an important speech to the General Synod of the Church of Nigeria, the 18 million-strong church's governing body, last month.

He said: "As a church we cannot but continue to decry the disturbing level of moral decadence and spiritual degradation eating deep into the soul of western societies.

"In the United Kingdom, all through Europe and in an ever-increasing number of states in America, legislators make laws to upturn the natural order and throw God away from the public domain.

"Marriage and family life as we know them in the word of God have been jettisoned.

"People of the same sex are legally permitted to marry. Parents' right to discipline their children is legally denied, the age of discretion that used to be 21 has been lowered to 18 and there are efforts at reducing it to 16 if not 14.

"As if these are not bad enough, only last week the Tell magazine reported in its 36th edition on page 12 that a 27-year-old man was arrested for having sex with a sheep in Dulwich, south-east London."

As Rush would say, this is a case of sexual hara-a-a-a-a-sment.

By mankind, perhaps. But, heaven and earth will pass away, but the WORD of the LORD will stand forever.

This is really hard for those that try to get over their addiction. Many who do, just turn to drinking.

Common decency requires that if one is going to have sex with a sheep that he marry her first.

“a 27-year-old man was arrested for having sex with a sheep in Dulwich”

I wasn’t aware that the ACLU was in the UK.

Herpes is forever...

And it took a African Primate to speak out about these things is it any wonder the UK Anglican Church is soo fractured?

They go apologize to Darwin’s bones, then never mention stuff like Gay Marriages or moral issues.
