One part of the new law states that, not only does it apply to all acts of homosexuality in Uganda itself, whether committed by a foreigner or a citizen BUT the law also applies to ALL citizens of Uganda no matter WHERE they reside in the world. The law says they shall be EXTRADITED to Uganda to face a possible death sentence. So if 2 homosexuals have a rump romp here in the USA and one of them is from Uganda and the government of Uganda request we extradite that homosexual to face possible death, should the United States honour that request?

I mean, did we ever expect Africa to come out ot its 3rd world status? I don't think so. This strory proves it again. They will be poor and 3rd world forever. Digging their own grave.

Did you read the article ? There are many names in there.

It's members include several high-ranking Congressmen such as Republicans Inhofe, Sen. Sam Brownback (KS), Sen. Jim DeMint (SC), Sen. Chuck Grassley (IA), Sen. John Thune (SD), Sen. Joe Pitts (PA), and several others. It is a bipartisan organization - Democratic members include Sen. Bill Nelson (FL), Sen. Mark Pryor (AR), Rep. Bart Stupak

That is because, while they are a big majority, the white part of that pie is getting larger and their slice is getting smaller. More and more people are seeing the religious nutcases for what they really are. Bigots who throw stones and hide behind the robe of Jesus Christ. More and more people are rejecting organized religion. In Europe and Canada it is even more so. More and more people are spending their Sundays enjoying time with their familes, BBQing or going to the park instead of listening to some scowling preacher spew hate and venom in the name of Jesus from the pulpit.
The future is SECULARISM- Thank God!

Did you read the article? It makes no claim that any member of Congress supports this Uganda crap. If I am wrong, quote something else because what you referenced above was a really cheap shot and an example of guilt by association.

Could any one of you left winger propagandists provide some proof that any Christian from this country advocated killing gays. All I could find was they were also against homosexuality.
