Ahead of his upcoming visit to Kenya, both secular and religious leaders in that country are issuing a caution to the president: If Obama Brings ‘Gay Agenda, We Will Tell Him to Shut Up and Go Home’ ~
“It is important for us as Kenyans to know that the U.S. is not God,” local media quoted evangelical Bishop Mark Kariuki as saying, adding that Obama should not use the visit to “talk about the gay issue.”
Irungu Kangata, a lawmaker in President Uhuru Kenyatta’s The National Alliance (TNA) party, was blunter: “We are telling Mr. Obama when he comes to Kenya this month and he tries to bring the abortion agenda, the gay agenda, we shall tell him to shut up and go home.”
Anybody who tries to come and preach to this country that they should allow homosexuality, I think he’s totally lost,” said TNA lawmaker Jamleck Kamau.
“And I would also like to add, our son from the U.S., Barack Obama, when he comes here, to simply avoid that topic completely,” added Kamau, “because Kenyans will not be happy with him if he comes to bring the issue of homosexuality in this country.”
Rose Mitaru, one of 47 female lawmakers representing counties across the country, said that allowing same-sex marriage in Kenya would open ‘floodgates of evil synonymous with the biblical Sodom and Gomorrah.’
The response from the O’Ministration to these declarations was the usual mixture of arrogance and prevarication ~
“I’m confident the president will not hesitate to make clear that the protection of basic universal human rights in Kenya is also a priority and consistent with the values that we hold dear here in the United States of America,” (Press Secretary Josh) Earnest said.
First of all, speak for yourself not-Earnest. Only the secular and the deluded hold sodomy and homosexual marriage “dear.” Second, what happened to we can’t impose our values on other cultures? That’s always the position you’re espousing when it comes to the religion-that-must-not-be-named. Audacious hypocrisy.
Meanwhile, thank God for Kenya ~
On Sunday, Deputy President William Ruto delivered a church sermon in Nairobi in which he said homosexuality was “against the plan of God.”
“God did not create man and woman so that men would marry men and women marry women,” The Daily Nation quoted him as saying.
“Those who want to engage in those businesses, they can do it in their countries, and they can do it wherever it is they want. In Kenya, we will stand firm.”

Archibishop of Nairobi Cardinal John Njue called out Obama and other international leaders for their role in the destruction of nations embracing the failed social experiment of homosexuality.
“Those people who have already ruined their society … let them not become our teachers to tell us where to go,” urged Njue, who also serves as president of the Kenyan Episcopal Conference. “I think we need to act according to our own traditions and our faiths.”
