Islam Moves Past Christianity

Changing Attitude Kenya meets with the Kenya Muslim National Advisory Council
In this post Changing Attitude reports on a new effort to open dialog between the Kenyan Islamic community and the lgbt population. From the article, two quick quotes:
  • The Revd Michael Kimindu, CA’s contact person in Kenya, reports that on July 14th and August 4th, he had two successful meetings with the Kenya Muslim National Advisory Council (KEMNAC).
  • They are not intent on killing homosexuals as some extreme reports have suggested but are willing to learn counselling skills in order to live in peace with homosexuals.

After I read the article, I had several reactions. First I have to applaud the courage of Revd. Kimindu. Second I have to applaud the courage of the Islamic community. Third I am ashamed of the Anglicans in Kenya and England both of which have much to learn from these people and nothing to teach them.

HT to Revd Coward.
