people died and he cares about homosexuals being accepted.
Bozo is a disgusting pervert narcissist. They only care about homosexuals cross dressing, and, social justice and not even a wimper from this pathetic biased media.
That is actually an interesting read. Long, but worth it.
Can’t say I buy into everything the Bishop has to say, but he makes some excellent points. I rather enjoyed this link to Queen Hillary:
In fact, recently I was alarmed when I heard Hillary Clinton, as Secretary of State, say that the United States government was committed to anything that would push the population control agenda. The United States actually said it would help Nigeria with Boko Haram only if we modify our laws concerning homosexuality, family planning, and birth control. It’s very clear that a cultural imperialism exists. In fact, I think that Africa is suffering greatly from a cultural imperialism that threatens to erode our cultural values.
We are to pray for our Leaders ... I'll continue to pray for their conviction and conversion.
And for Hope an Change.
Change our leaders' hearts, or change our leaders...
bkmk
Which is also ironic as Israel is the only country where birth control and homosexuality won’t get you killed or imprisoned but Obama still hates Israel....
Me thinks Obama is just using Homosexuality and Birth control as an excuse to indirectly support the extremist mooselimbs...
Homosexuals yes, Christians no, for bh0
Do we need more evidence of why the whitehouse didn’t mentioned that the 21 Egyptians were Christians. Of course it is interesting that bh0 is pro-homosexual and pro-radical muslims. I wonder what he will say if ISIS burns alive or beheads a group of homosexuals, whether Christian or Moslem?
one less day till the shit stain is out of office.
Bump
I used to believe it was just skin color, but Blacks attack conservative Blacks as "uncle toms" and insist on supporting the absolutely most radical (on every issue, not just race and poverty) candidate available. I now firmly believe that I could have won their votes in '08 and '12 if I had run in the Democrat primaries and run to the Left of everyone else (in that case Obama would have been the "uncle tom").
They’re trading one form of death for a more insidious type of death? WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE AT THIS POINT?!
Well, doesn’t this just beat all.
Romans 1:..
22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools.. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy.
Note also that Romans 1:32 points out that those who approve of such conduct are just as guilty as those who engage in it.
When manifest judgment hits America, besides the manner of leaders that are a judgment, then remember actions as this.
For counterbalance, another Bishop asserts a big problem is also Government Corruption. So, this is at least, a part of the problem too.
There was the story a few weeks ago, that the US told Israel not to sell Nigeria helicopters as well.
But another story said because of corruption, the US was not sure if the Nigerian Government would be using these against Boko Haram.
Yes.
VATICAN CITY — “African values are not on sale,” the new Chairman of Communications for the African bishops has said.
But Bishop Emmanuel Badejo of Oyo, Nigeria, is convinced they are under threat from what Pope Francis has called an “ideological colonization” that is seeking to destroy the family.
It's so bad, he says, that the United States has made clear it will not help Nigeria fight the Boko Haram terror group unless the country modify its laws regarding homosexuality, family planning and birth-control.
Aleteia sat down with Bishop Badejo last week in Rome at the conclusion of the African Bishops' Standing Committee Meeting, to discuss his unique perspective on the nature and threat of the Nigerian-born terrorist group. Bishop Badejo also discussed the African bishops’ hopes for the Synod on the Family and their view on the hot-button issues and statements made at last October's Synod gathering.
Bishop Badejo, 53, is the new Chairman of Communications for the Symposium of Episcopal Conferences of Africa and Madagascar (SECAM).
Your Excellency, as a bishop in Nigeria what can you tell us about the nature and activities of Boko Haram?
If we knew all of the precise answers regarding Boko Haram, it would have been over a long time ago. The truth is that from our reflections, findings and experience with the people who have gotten involved with the brutality and violence of Boko Haram, it’s a whole mixture of things: all the vices of administration in Nigeria from the past, the corruption, the bad administration, the lack of attention to the youthful population, the lack of attention to the important pillars of democracy such as educating the people, especially in the northern part of Nigeria.
I believe that we are suffering from the negligence of 30-35 years of bad administration.
We saw it coming for quite a number of years in Nigeria. You could go to the north of Nigeria and even in the most peaceful times, you would see herds and herds of young people on the streets doing absolutely nothing but begging. Anyone with a minimum capacity for analysis would know that this was trouble. It didn’t have to be Boko Haram. Anyone with any kind of evil agenda had plenty of hands to hire, to use simply for robbery and thuggery, and to disturb the public peace.
When democracy came on, there were a lot of expectations but those expectations were not met. These young people, who had already been rendered incapable of taking care of themselves by lack of education, lack of employment, also saw politicians who used to be nobodies overnight become super-rich people, who had the capacity to get just about whatever they wanted. And with the international media that showed what the good life could be, those same young people who didn’t care before began to care about what they could be if they obtained such positions. Well, there were promises: if you go to school, but there were no schools at that point. There were no jobs. Only of late has the government started to build schools. But I think it came a little too late.
There was also the problem of a lack of capacity to respect the rule of law. Nigeria has a constitution, which over the years has been abused because of the lack of the will of the government to enforce the law when it should. Crime could be committed and people got away with it. When Sharia was introduced into a small state many years ago, the government couldn’t do anything about it and they looked the other way hoping that it would just go away, which showed the lack of capacity to control anything.
All that encouraged rebellion. So when Boko Haram came, those who were disgruntled with the system and with the authorities had something to latch on to. Even to this day, I still know that there are young people who joined terrorist groups not because they loved terrorist groups but because they needed an avenue to kick back at the system, to do something to show their protest. All that formed part of a huge body of evil, maladministration, corruption that the north was carrying.
