Since his enthronement in March 2020, Archbishop Stephen Samuel Kaziimba has consistently spoken against homosexuality.
Archbishop Kazimba in his Christmas message didn’t mince words before a youthful crowd in Mukono on December 12. He said since the Church of England elected an openly gay man, Dr David Monteith as dean of Canterbury, the Church of Uganda which he superintends would be forced to sever ties as they (British) are veering off the right path, observer.ug reports.
Dr Mugalu’s words are not different from his predecessor, Archbishop Stanley Ntagali’s words or actions of much of the Anglican church on the continent, most of whom severed ties with the American church that consecrated a bishop who was gay. The archbishop reiterated these sentiments in his Christmas message that was read at the Inter-Religious Council of Uganda head offices in Mengo according to observer.ug.
Dr Mugalu should find the words of Pope Francis who said; «Homosexual people have a right to be in the family. They are children of God. They have a right to a family. Nobody should be thrown out of the family or made miserable over this. What we have to make is a law of civil coexistence, for they have the right to be legally covered. I stood up for that».
