Times like this I feel fortunate to live in South Africa. Our constitution is one of the best if not the best in the world.

Hi Stephanie,

Thanks for posting this.  Too bad the article didn't mention organizations like the Abiding Truth Ministries led by Scott Lively that have been working behind the scene in places like Uganda to get these anti-LGBTQ laws enacted. 

Take care,
Paige
