Archbishop Of Jos Defends Gays, Asks FG To Stop Punishing Them by malele(m): 11:05am On Oct 11, 2014
The Archbishop of Jos, Ignatius Kaigama, has condemned
the criminalization of gays in Nigeria. Speaking with the
Vatican's weekly publication, The Tablet, on Wednesday
October 8th, Archbishop Kaigama said the catholic church
does not support the criminalizing of people due to their
different sexual orientation and urged the federal
government to stop punishing gay people.
"We are not supporting the criminalization of people with
different sexual orientations. We would defend any person
with homosexual orientation who is being harassed, who
is being imprisoned, who is being punished. The federal
government may want to punish them, we don't. In fact,
we will tell the government to stop punishing those with
different orientations" he said

^^ he is not encouraging them neither is he supporting gays.
His message is "live and let others live"
"Don't judge them"

Left to me, its death sentence for those sshiitt-hole hunters.

The man is on point. In as much as gay is bad, to criminalise it will be setting a very bad precedence to their desire to change. The best thing is to integrate them into the society and help them change themselves.
I believe none of them chose to be gay, condition made them to be the way they are and threatening to send them to prison will only plunge them into the closet and exposing them to unhealthy lifestyles as well as to idiots in human forms who would choose to lynch them.
What should be criminalised is gay marriage which is foreign to our culture. but gay is not peculiar to any particular culture or people. It has been there and will always be there.
However, our inept lawmakers knowing fully well that they make laws for gullible people chose to criminalise it so as to score cheap political point. I think they should have first of all criminalised fighting in the legislative chambers which is a great dent on our national image.

Oh! I am not surprised, when the catholic church members don't go to church with the holy bible. when what they read in the church is bulletin (pamphlet)

Chai !!!!! the word of God is not being preached in the catholic church. no wonder so many people see that church as an occultic gathering.

Why did God destroy soddom and gomorrah in the bible with rains of fire from heaven, is not because they practiced homosexuality?
Mr arch bishop if you don't know what to preach go and sit down and ask God for forgiveness for the souls you have sent to hell fire due to you occultic teaching.

I pity your. gullible followers who would rather remain with you than to change to a bible believing church
SMH. surely the end is near.

Pastors of nowadays no longer say the truth, but what the people desire to hear.

If Jesus had told his people what they desire to hear, they would have accepted wholeheartedly.

Let him ask God why he destroyed the people of lut because of their “ sexual orientation“.

Who are you to judge God's creature? I am a proud Catholic and I must defend whatever that concerns it whenever someone with myopic reasoning like you talks.

God creature indeed, I am yet to see where God did not punish his children in the bible when they disobeyed him.
anyway I don't have time for an occultic catholic like you who never reads the bible. you only go by what your so called reverend fathers and arch bishop say.

The laws of the country had meted out punishment for them oya go and die
I don't blame you this what your revd. fathers who vow not to marry but behind closed doors they commit homosexual activities are doing so,why won't they defend them.

A proud catholic indeed.
