Anti-Homosexuality Law in Uganda: Opponents Call for International Sanctions
Africa News ^ | 30/05

Ugandan human rights activists are calling for sanctions against the authorities in their East African country after the enactment of an "anti-homosexuality law" which they say "legalises homophobia and transphobia".

President Yoweri Museveni approved the law, considered to be one of the most repressive in the world despite warnings from international partners.

Called the "Anti-Homosexuality Act 2023", the law provides for heavy penalties for people who have homosexual relations and "promote" homosexuality.

An offence of "aggravated homosexuality" is punishable by death, a penalty that has not been applied for years in Uganda.

The Ugandans I know are saying, “Bring it”.

The Ugandans protesting the new law are not only a very tiny minority, but they are probably financed by the same people grooming our kids in the West.

I’m so proud of Uganda! My wife and I support a native pastor there.

Of course, this was never brought up when we first heard of female genital mutilation.

Well, let’s look at what happens to countries that embrace it, and the things that follow. Before you know it, children will be taken from their parents and have their sexual organs mutilated or removed. Thankfully, that’s not happening in the US... And not to forget, it’s Pride Month

Heard any complaints on this reaction being “cultural imperialism” and “racist?” Odd... me neither.

Humanity must draw a line in the sand or evil will subsume God’s natural order.

Dear Holy Father, we are thankful your Spirit is strong in Uganda. Your children there love you so much they’re willing to stand strong with you to protect their families and societies in Your Name. Shield them from the wicked practitioners of the new world religion and the satanic armies behind it. Continue to let Your Light of Truth and True Love shine through them as a beacon in the confusion and darkness in the heart of Africa. May your children around the world follow their example in your Holy Spirit. In Jesus’ Name we pray, amen.
