ok, first things first. i was thanking you for specifying which country the article you posted was about. saying african anything is like saying asian anything - would i be talking about india, turkey, china, russia or whatever corner of the continent i missed? when people speak of african anything, they're usually saying black africans and the truth of the matter is that there are all hues present. that's why i appreciate specificity. but if you're so high and fucking mighty about how tired it must make you to comment on me bringing up that all africans are witches, you will surely find them in a single place - you won't need as many links. if you're right, that is.
now, you quoted me in your post, then started lambasting *someone* about "Or you could just quit the speculation and research the shit yourself." and spouting off about fundies. i assume you were speaking of the other guy. i'm going to ask you to clarify that, so i know where you stand.
As for the African thing the problem is in the African regions I mentioned (it might also be in southern Africa but I don't know so I left it out). The problem also resides with some (not all of course) of the ex pats of the regions mentioned. There was an incident in the U.K. and I seem to recall an incident in the U.S. but I could be recalling incorrectly. One thing is certain the witch hunting churches exist in the U.S. As I recall there have been no reports of child abuse that can be directly linked to the preaching in these churches (just random medically crazy people). The problem is that the asshole preachers in the (named) African regions come here, make gobs of money and this funds their horrors in Africa.
On another note If y'all don't mind I'm going to quit for the night, I might read a bit but I'm too tired for debate. I can't even type well. I keep making errors.
If anyone is truly interested tomorrow, I''ll post liknks
Aleulskjdfljldlk (however your spell your name) you made my day. I'm still laughing.
I have studied the Bible and the theology behind Christianity for many years. I have been to many churches. I have walked the depth and the breadth of the religion and, as a result of this, I have a lot of bullshit to scrape off the bottom of my shoes. ~Ziploc Surprise
