Zimbabwe Gay rights debate brews a storm, Anglican preist: Gays ‘had to be completely destroyed, ‘ we are ‘a Christian nation’

HARARE — This week’s statement by the gay community in Zimbabwe demanding their rights to be enshrined in the country’s new constitution has sparked outrage among many Zimbabweans who despise homosexuality.

A reverend with the Anglican Church in suburban Harare who called them “botty burglars” said homosexuality is an abomination and condemned in the Bible. “That is why God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah with sulphuric fire.

They, homosexuals, had to be completely destroyed,” he said.

“Poofters must know that we are a Christian nation,” said Tawanda Gumbo of Kuwadzana. “They chose to be gay.

Forget this nonsense about them being born gay.

If it is true that some people are born gay then we should see some animals that are attracted to the same sex as well.

The fact that there are no gay cattle, elephants, etc, shows it’s something that people choose to do, something that is not natural, something that is against God’s will.”
