					<description><![CDATA[It is amazing.... Isn&#039;t it amazing how Christians that supposedly serve a God of Love and Peace, are the first people to cause hatred, seperation, divide, wars, exclusion with their &quot;religion&quot;? I see no love and peace anywhere. If I have one wish for the world, it would be that there are NO religion at all...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;d actually be more scared about Zuma stepping into churches these days. We KNOW he is a homophobe, so what will stop HIM from &quot;amending&quot; our rights and freedoms as the ANC have done ove the past few years, once he is in the driving seat? He is the REAL threat to this country, not these few religious freaks.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;We are in for dark times. Vote for the opposition, it is all we can do. I cannot wait to get the hell out of this country.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mambaonline.com/2009/04/01/anti-gay-electioneering-heats-up/#comment-8378&quot;&gt;michael&lt;/a&gt;.

Let me clarify, I DO NOT under any circumstances support what the CDA is preaching amongst its members in or out of the church. And strongly object to them broadcasting their hatred on a youth radio station, especially considering how many children go to school in fear because of being bullied and / or persecuted because of who they are. The CDA is just giving a reason to these young kids to seek out gay &#038; lesbian kids and encouraging violence. &lt;br&gt;I agree with you 100% that it is in the churches that ignorance and fear begin.&lt;br&gt;What I was trying to say (and maybe should&#039;ve written it better) was that religion and politics are a lethal combination. Any politician who wants to get ahead takes the religious route to power and vice versa. Religion should be kept in the confines of the church (without the hate mongering and without the hate speech), and politics should be left to politicians (and in majority of cases even that is sometimes a bad idea *smiley*]]></description>

ok in churches???. Actually, that&#039;s where this incredible political policy against human rights starts and is supported - in the churches where you think it is ok for this sort of thing to be preached.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It shouldn&#039;t be ok, not even in churches, otherwise this inhumanity will keep on raising its ugly head and will continue to have to be fought on a never-ending basis.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[If. And let&#039;s just say - perhaps in some other twisted universe - that the CDA manages to do what they promise and remove the rights of lesbian and gay people, and then what? They will find that the &quot;moral decay&quot; has absolutely nothing to do with same-sex marriage or gay &#038; lesbian people in general. So to fix their mistake will they then remove the rights of non-Christians? Non-believers? Will they take away the rights of people who belong to other faiths? Will they remove the rights of the doctors / nurses involved with abortions? Will churches of different faiths be closed? Athiests be driven out of the country? Pagan believers burnt at the stake? Internet access blocked? Will they implement all the old ways of the bible such as not eating shellfish (the bible states this was considered an abomination), will people be banned from wearing clothes made from two different fibres, or allowed to stone your neighbour because he worked on a Sunday, or kill your wife because she cheated on you? Will the rights of women be removed? How far will the CDA go and it&#039;s &quot;true Christians&quot; go before they are satisfied? My guess is once the country has descended into anarchy only then will they finally be happy.]]></description>
