The argument against homosexuality has taken a new twist with the superintendent minister for the Wa Methodist Church of Ghana insinuating that homosexual men compete with babies for diapers.<\/p>\n
At an induction ceremony, the Very Rev. Samuel. C. Hagan, claimed diapers are in short supply owing to the \u201cevil\u201d activities of gay men.<\/p>\n
His utterances follow weeks of heated debate over the rights or wrongs of the practice of homosexuality in the country.<\/p>\n
Human rights advocates have called for the rights of lesbians and homosexuals to be respected.<\/p>\n
But critics, particularly religious leaders, have been quick to revolt.<\/p>\n
The Very Reverend Samuel Hagan minced no words in condemning the activities of gay men.<\/p>\n
In a report filed Joy News\u2019 Upper West correspondent Rafiq Salam, Samuel Hagan criticized pastors who he said presided over gay marriages.<\/p>\n
He commended human rights advocates for championing the respect for the rights of the vulnerable in society but admonished them against championing the rights of homosexuals.<\/p>\n
\u201cYour rights of freedom to pursue freedom for others are good but don\u2019t use freedom as a covering for evil.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNow there are many men who are struggling with babies for the demand of pampers,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n
\u201cI challenge all religious bodies to come out clear and state their positions since the menace of homosexuality is consuming the society like a bush fire,\u2019 he stated.<\/p>\n
