Kenyan court upholds bans on gay intimacy
In a case that pitted influential faith leaders against gay rights groups, Kenya’s High Court declined on Friday (May 24) to force the repeal of sections of the penal code widely seen to discriminate against homosexuals.
The vast majority of Christian and Muslim leaders approved of the court’s decision. Most oppose homosexuality as contrary to the teaching of the Bible and the Quran, and many pastors don’t accept gays and lesbians in their churches.
Homosexuality “is against everything — our culture, the bible, nature, our faith,” said Anglican Archbishop Jackson Ole Sapit of Kenya. “We are alarmed by same sex marriages. Marriages is an institution of procreation. There is no procreation in gay marriages.”
According to the archbishop, defeating these trends, which he said are imports from the West, requires vigilance. “If we keep quiet, they advance an inch. We must sustain the noise against the trends,” said Ole Sapit.
Sheikh Hassan ole Naado, deputy secretary general of the Supreme Council of Kenya Muslims, said he never doubted how the court would rule. “The society does not condone extreme liberal ideas such as this one. We are for procreation and we do not support homosexuality,” said Ole Naado.
In sub-Saharan Africa, 28 out of 49 countries have laws penalizing same-sex relationships, according to Human Rights Watch.

Enkele maanden geleden besliste het hoggerechtshof in Nairobi of de wet die homoseksualiteit strafbaar maakt zou geschrapt worden.
Zowel de kerkleiders als moslimleiders voerden campagne tegen het schrappen van de wet.
In Uganda wonen bijna geen moslims. Daar hebben de kerkleiders en Amerikaanse sektes gelobbyd om homoseks met de dood te bestraffen.
