From Ghana-Comments made by Pope Francis of the Catholic faith and Archbishop Desmond Tutu of South Africa regarding gay rights are to say the least very confusing. We need clear messages from God backed by their faiths to give hope to humanity.
While Pope Francis said on his trip to Brazil that he cannot judge ex gays and lesbians priests so long as they follow the right path of worship, Desmond Tutu said in a UN meeting on gays in South Africa that he would not worship a God who is homophobic. This, to the respected clergyman, means that all those against gays and lesbians are homophobic. What does he mean by homophobia? Where did he get this knowledge, from the United Nations Europe or the gay right movement?
The two men are held in high esteem for the positions they hold globally. However one is at a loss as to the true positions they hold regarding gay and lesbianism.
The questions to ask is are they in support and approve the position of the Gay Right Movement? They need to clear the air, else their current position might lead to confusion in the minds of their followers and many more on gay and lesbianism.
However some clergymen in Ghana and some parts of Africa and the world have expressed surprise and disapprove the stand taken by the two clergymen and have called on Catholics, Anglicans and the rest of the people to ignore them.
