Homosexuality - An Opinion Piece


It has become incredibly difficult these days to tell between real and fake information on the Internet these days. However, just recently, several Robert Mugabe’s Quotes have caught my attention especially regarding the issue of gays and same sex marriages, a topic that always elicits vehement criticism from most of Africa when it is brought up.
One of them apparently quoted Mugabe asking The President of the United States to divorce Mitchell and come to Africa and marry him if he indeed thinks people of the same sex marrying each other is right. Another told of how Mugabe wondered how someone leaves a smooth Superhighway only to take a ride inside a sewage. One even quoted him stating that even Satan is not   gay, that he approached and seduced Eve and not Adam. Other quotes are unpublishable on this forum, but all of them according to me make absolute sense. Indeed since I started seeing these quotes, I have come to completely agree that Mugabe is Africa’s wisest man. Of course that depends on the perspective you want to see it from.
Mugabe aside, his sentiments reflect the feelings of most Africans about this issue. In recent times personally, I have grown increasingly disturbed that probably in the very near future, the world will be forced to accept homosexuality as a norm, like now we see watching porn as a societal norm. If that day ever comes in my lifetime, then I shall actually believe the end times are near.
I do not mean to say that homosexuals we should begin slits these homosexual’s throats or that they should be taken to mental institutions like the old Nazi days, but for Christ’s sake, they should save the rest of us the disgust of thinking a man can have sex with a man or a woman can marry a woman. Seriously, for a lot of us it makes us loose our appetites.
Most people are victims of criticizing mistakes or wrong doings and not trying to offer a solution. I have with time determined am one such person. But sometimes its just hard to offer a solution to some problems, like a young man who decides he does not want girls, but instead finds delight in the male physique. When it’s suggested that he can be taken to a rehab to amend his behaviours, gay activists come in with their all too familiar script of discrimination. Like an alcoholic who is taken to a rehab ever complained he was being discriminated against. That’s how hard it is, especially when the most powerful nation on earth actually supports such rugged way of life. So in this one, I actually have no solution.
In the meantime, Obama is visiting Africa (Kenya in particular) this july and will perhaps deviate from what will have brought him to Africa and continue with his gay campaign. The African knows his God, and he cannot be cowed. We refuse to accept immorality as moral. We can withstand the injustice of a sanction, or the severity of the withdrawal of American aid, or indignation for being poor, but we cannot stand the wrath of God!

10 Most Amazing Military Upsets by Native African Armies against European Colonists

When European colonists landed in Africa, it was all about one thing, grab as much territory as you could and make it yours, by any means necessary. Even before the Berlin Conference, most of African land was already divided among the European and conflicts between them and the natives of the land they had now made theirs were taking shape The violent collisions pitted the well-equipped, well organized and highly disciplined armies of the Europeans with the too often weak armies of people of the African continent. They were no match. More often than not, entire African armies were annihilated wholesomely and their people subdued almost as fast as the battles began. Famous Anglo-French write Hilaire Bellocr even confidently wrote that “Whatever happens, we have the Maxim gun, and they have not” Well, except that the Maxim gun sometimes failed terribly when it faced the unbridled determination, bravery and the sheer spirit of Africans.   Downright unexpected upsets sometimes to

Fidel Castro: A Tribute

"No thieves, no traitors, no interventionists! This time the revolution is for real!" Fidel Castro One theory regarding how the human civilization will come to an end has talked about us becoming so technologically advanced that we will finally be unable to control it and obliterate ourselves. In fact, that theory is not so far-fetched. In October of 1962, the world came the closest we have been to destroying ourselves, so dangerously close to what would have been a nuclear Armageddon, thanks to the then world superpowers, the United States and the USSR show of might.  The Americans had covertly installed nuclear-armed missiles in Italy and Turkey, which effectively placed the whole of Soviet Union under threat, and granted the Americans a first-strike nuclear capability in case of a war with the USSR. It must be said that at this point that the USSR had already tested Tsar Bomb, a hydrogen bomb 30,000 stronger than the Hiroshima one. The Soviets wanting to counter t
