Barbara Bradley Hagerty interviewed David Bahati, author of Uganda’s notorious anti-gay legislation, and Bishop Christopher Senyonjo, who was defrocked by Archbishop Henry Orombi, primate of the Church of Uganda, for ministering to LGBT Christians, for this report.
Two observations: 1) our friends at Integrity, and their allies, are doing an excellent job helping Bishop Christopher to make his voice heard; and 2) the more coverage this issue receives, the worse it is for Bishop John Guernsey and the people whose consciences led them out of the Episcopal Church and into the Church of Uganda. The number of people who want to commit themselves publicly to a church that can’t bring itself to criticize legislation this vicious is thankfully small.
