African Bishop Spins Homosexuality Debate in TEC Diocese

[VirtueOnline] 26 Jan 2008--A liberal African bishop, who has wrought havoc in his own diocese and the Province of Central Africa over his liberal views on homosexuality, told delegates to the 192nd annual meeting of the Episcopal Diocese of North Carolina in Greensboro, recently, that the majority of African Anglicans, about 37 million, are not bothered by the debate about sexuality.

The Rt. Rev. Musonda Trevor Mwamba of Botswana blasted the African Anglican Church, which represents the vast majority of the Anglican Communion, saying the majority of African Anglicans have their minds focused on life and death issues, like AIDS, poverty ... and not what the church thinks about sex or the color of your pajama pants. "Villagers who live on less than $1 a day aren't aware this is going on. The majority of Africans who can afford TVs and radios, they don't want to see the communion incinerate," he said.
