Our Politicians and the Clergy are now turning Ghana into what the slaves from Africa faced in Jim Crow USA in the early 19th to the middle 20th century, we are becoming a country of KKK. Let me explain to the homophobics who will troop to this article and start tagging me as a homosexual, I am not. As a matter of fact, I don't understand why any sane male will like to have sex with another male when God in his wisdom created women to be our sexual partners. I am not a homosexual lover neither am I a homosexual hater but I personally believe that, homosexuals have a defect in their genetic make up, their chromozones are not in conformity with hetrosexual genetic makeup. Our homosexual brothers need love,intensive counselling, Psychological and medicinal help instead of the hate being propagated by people who should show sympathy instead of this hate. I cringed with horror when I read this synopsis from our Clergy and a Politician;

"Minister Orders Arrest Of All Homosexuals Date: 19-Jul-2011 The Western Region Minister Paul Evans Aidoo has ordered the immediate arrest of all homosexuals in the region. He has tasked the Bureau of National Investigations and all security agencies to smoke out persons suspected to be engaging in same sex. He also enlisted the services of landlords and tenants to provide reliable information which will lead to the arrest of homosexuals

But a Lawyer at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology has challenged the legitimacy of the minister's action. Ernest Kofi Abotsie told Joy News that no person can be arrested for breach of morality, explaining that the law on “unnatural canal knowledge” in the criminal code is still ambiguous and cannot necessarily be said to be the same as homosexuality."

Brothers and Sisters in Christ, disrobe your hatred suits and hang them up for now, this is very dangerous indeed. Yes, homosexuality is abhorrent and morally reprehensible but are we going the Hitler way by arresting homosexuals and putting them in Concentration camps? We know Hitler gassed 6 million Jews but do we know that he also gassed homosexuals in his concentration camps? Is this what we want in Ghana? Right now homosexuals are the bogey-men in Ghana but are they worse than Armed Robbers? Murderers? Child Rapists? What this Minister fails to understand is that being a homosexual is not in itself a crime, but engaging in homosexual activities might be which is not even a cut and dry case so what is he arresting the homosexuals for?

Now it has become a winning formula for Politicians propagate this hate. Not long ago, another NDC MP advocated for homosexual lynching. What kind of human beings are we becoming? Are we that primitives we have to resort to simplistic solutions for complex problems? Even President Mills has joined the chorus of hatemongers by saying homosexuality is not our culture? What does he mean by homosexuality is not our culture? Africans have been pracrtising homosexuality before the white man set foot on our continent and I will show on my next article that, homosexuality was not a western culture that just came to Africa but we Africans have been practising this filth as part of our culture.

"Christian Council kicks against gay campaigners

The Christian Council of Ghana has condemned in no uncertain terms the practice of homosexuality in Ghana. The Council further demanded aspirants of the various political parties seeking election into power in next year’s General election to state publicly their position on what has become a hugely controversial matter in the country. At a press conference in Accra on Monday the General Secretary of the Council Dr. Fred Deegbe urged voters to blacklist any presidential candidate who supports the rights of gays and lesbians in any shape or form."

Did the Clergy say "BLACKLIST"? What about if we blacklist any Church whose Clergy rapes or molest a woman or a boy? Can the Catholic and the Anglican Clergy's pass the homosexual litmus test? What about the Presbyterian, Methodist and Baptist Priests? Can they pass the sexual morality test? We have a history of Priests from these denominations raping and having sex with married Church women. Don't even let me talk about the Pentecostal and the mushrooming Charismatic Churches whose Priests are nothing but Clever Thieves and Rapists who have found a clever way of seperating their members from their money and satisfying their salacious sexual interest with the babbling speaking in tongues nonsense.

Homosexuality is morally and wrong,reprehensible,sickening and not healthy and we all should do our best to help those who have been snarled by the claws of this scourge, but the way our Political and Priests are going about it is not what the Bible want us to do. The Bible says to love the sinner without loving the sin, are we really Christians?

I will deal with whether Homosexuality is an African culture or not and whether homosexuality existed before westerners set foot in Africa.
