It really happened and was reported . And about "the Ugandan pastor who burns condoms on the university campus", do you have a problem with that? I mean, objectively thinking, do you think Jesus would be promoting the use of condoms? He is a strong advocate of ?chastity (or if you will call it "abstinence"), and we the Ugandan youths, are proud of him. I would that pastors worldwide would encourage chastity and advocate for it among the youths of their congregation, a noble thing as the elders of the church! And, yes like you have your values, so do other countries. And, homosexuality is not an African tradition and we don't desire to introduce it in OUR country. we are not as economically or politically or militarily powerful as most, but we are rich in our culture, values and godfearing modes of life.You may have a problem with that but WE don't and THAT is the point. If it works for Ugandans, we the Ugandan people are contented with it! You call "caricature" what you want, but this story is not fabricated. It really happened and was reported .
