Homophobia in Africa: The American far-right's footprint {barf alert}
DW (Deutsche Welle) (German radio) ^ | March 15, 2024 | Martina Schwikowski

Fundamentalist Christian churches from the United States are increasingly gaining power and influence in societies and political spheres across Africa. Many of them have been whipping up negative sentiments against LGBTQ+ people and abortion rights.

Haley McEwen, a sociologist at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden, has examined some of their influential networks.

"US Christian right-wing groups have been very active in the US foreign policy since the early 2000s," McEwen told DW.

"There are several organizations that have been around since the 1970s — and in the early 2000s they started to increase their influence internationally."

[promoting LGBTQ all over the world.]

It is INDEED world-wide - I couldn't believe how far it had spread

Another thing that convinces me that we're in the Last Days

If a man lies with a male as with a woman, they have committed an abomination; the two of them shall be put to death; their bloodguilt is upon them. -Leviticus 20:13

True Christians recognize that homosexual acts are sinful...very sinful.

Even 'true' Jews do as well.

They were recorded as GREATLY sinful even before the 10 commandments were given!


 
 

 

Genesis 13:13
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the LORD.

Genesis 18:20-21
20. Then the LORD said, "The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and 
their sin so grievous
21. that I will go down and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know."

Genesis 19:4-7
4. Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom--both young and old--surrounded the house.
5. They called to Lot, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them."
6. Lot went outside to meet them and shut the door behind him
7. and said, "No, my friends. Don't do this wicked thing.

 



We are living in a Genesis 19:9 world...
 

"Get out of our way,” they replied.
“This fellow came here as a foreigner, and now he wants to play the judge!
We’ll treat you worse than them.”
They kept bringing pressure on Lot and moved forward to break down the door.


And, after the LAW kicks in...

Leviticus niv

18:22 Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.

20:13 If a man has sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. 

           They are to be put to death; their blood will be on their own heads.

 
 


Psalms 12:8 The wicked freely strut about when what is vile is honored among men.

 

================================================

Isaiah 3:9 The look on their faces testifies against them;

they parade their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it.

Woe to them! They have brought disaster upon themselves.

 

================================================

Ezekiel 16:49-50  "`Now this was the sin of your sister Sodom:

She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy.

They were haughty and did detestable things before me.

 Therefore I did away with them as you have seen.

Nah - UTAH still has LOTS of uranium.

We merely bought it cheaper overseas.

“Nah - UTAH still has LOTS of uranium. We merely bought it cheaper overseas.”

Good luck getting the Leftist judges to allow its extraction. Although one thing would work - if the producers argue that the Uranium would be made into nukes and kill 10s of millions of Russians, then they’d not only get a green light, they’d get expedited processing!

Yes...I should have said something like “the Judeo-Christian ethic has recognized the sinfulness of homosexual actual acts for millennia”.
