Nigerian Christians Condemn US On Same-sex Marriage by Nobody: 8:40am On Jun 30, 2015
Umbrella body of Christians in Nigeria, the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, yesterday condemned the United States Supreme Court decision on Friday to legalize gay marriage across the 50 states of the United States of America which has generated concern among Christians across the globe who believe that marriage should be reserved for one man and one woman. In a telephone interview, the National Secretary of CAN, Rev. Musa Asake said the US decision shows how low human beings are trying to avert the original plan of God for marriage which is between a man and a woman. Asake said it is absurd for anybody to come up today to tell a different thing other than that institued by God before the foundation of the world. “Same-sex marriage is un-biblical, it is not right, it is uncalled for and our politicians must be very careful so that they don’t tow the line of the West because if we do we will just be destroying ourselves. “There is just no way, you can unite a man and another man in marriage. Where will procreation come from? If that was the practice those people advocating the practice would not have been around today. So it’s against God’s original plan for creation and it’s not good,” he maintained. The CAN scribe therefore enjoined Nigerian politicians to tread carefully, stressing that the nation had already enacted a law criminalizing same-sex relationships defying pressure from Western governments to respect gay and lesbian rights. According to Rev. Asake, “nobody should tamper with that law which prescribed 14 years imprisonment for anybody engaged in any same-sex amorous relationship. It is not the right part, it’s not our culture; it is not good for our religious stance, it’s disgusting to even think of it. “I want the government of the day and politicians generally to be very careful not to plunge this country into darkness,” he said, noting that the same-sex marriage being recommended by Western nations is not good for our families, it’s un-cultural and unwelcome here. The government of the day, he maintained, should close its eyes and it’s ears to an America that is going down the drain. Also responding, chairman of Christian Association in the South South, Archbiship God-do-well Avwomakpa described the US Supreme Court’s decision as an error against humanity. “He said Nigeria had made the world to “believe that there’s a God that answers prayers. That is why people are trying to pollute our relationship with God, so that we can agree that men should marry men and women should marry women. Even the animals in Nigeria forbid it. Also, the ancestors forbid it.”

justifying this gay act is even the saddest thing about the entire gay nonsense. You will hear sane people saying silly things like;

1. That's the way they were created
2. Its their lives and nobody's business
3. Everybody is free to love who he/she wanna love
4. This is a free world blah blah blah......

But I just have one question for all these "civilized" people supporting gay rights and what not; Please will you all be in this world today if your fore fathers choose to be gays ?


What is wrong can never ever be right

Have they finished making our own country a better place? Will they all stop praying for visa now? Have we solved our own problems so well that we now have time to be lecturing the USA? Abeg, take the log out of your own eye first. Ish.

These "civilised" people are not different from the LGBT community. As long as you approve a sin, you are as guilty as those engaged in it. And you wont escape the wrath of God.
