Nigerian Guardian and Having ‘The Gay’

By | March 23, 2009

Have you seen this editorial from The Nigerian Guardian? See an excerpt:

Africans have a right to say ‘no’ to a movement whose ultimate outcome will be the destruction of the family. Homosexuals are claiming that men can marry themselves. If everyone followed their example, would they have even been born? Looking at the debate, we conclude that in the short run both parties cannot be reconciled without grave injuries being done to either of them.

To be fair to them, they say something about not being against the ‘medical condition’ itself, just that they feel that not everything that is baked in the West should be eaten in Africa. I thought that they would point to the fact that not everything can be legislated. Agitations by gay activists are in reaction against a proposed legislation that would ban gay marriage.  Don’t lawmakers have something else to do other than legislating people’s sexual preferences?

The full editorial is here.
