These are bad times for clerics in Uganda. One pastor of the Liberty Worship Centre was taken to court on Wednesday over allegations of sodomy, while another pastor of the Holy Fire Ministries was arrested on Tuesday for alleged theft and extortion.

Julius "Kitaka" Lukyamuzi claims he was sodomised by Pastor Grace Kitaka Kisingiri in June 1996 after he had been adopted as one of the destitute children under his care.

Lukyamuzi contends that after Kitaka had adopted him, he forcefully and brutally abused him sexually in June 1996. The Pastor took him to Namirembe Hospital for treatment, he further states, adding that he suffered damage in the anus passage, which requires a medical operation

In a related development, the Police yesterday paraded Pastor Francis Kiyimba, alias Ofwono, of the Holy Fire Ministries Church, based in Namulanda, Entebbe, who is accused of a series of crimes, including theft and extortion.

Thanks!

because i don't think a minister, clergyman anywhere in the world, no matter how distant or obscure, has not been arrested without you alerting us to it Ian.

how can we thank you?
of course, the bigger question is... why would we thank you?

same thing. And I'd like to point out that there are shitloads of 1.) Gays and 2.) Atheists who have been caught and convicted on the same charges. Of course it's only Christians that count on DU.

but you take any large segment of the population and you get many of those individuals doing wonderful things, boring things, or terrible things.

every time some preacher in East Pissflap, Mississippi, gets caught jacking off behind the Tastee-Freeze? Think how much poorer your life would be without that vital information.

It really is a weird little obsession he's got going there, isn't it? Tiresome, too.

As for what DU is today, well, I'm not gonna touch that one.

What is the heterosexual male fascination with sodomy? Is it a toilet training issue? A mother/power issue? Why?
