  • That Homophobic Pastor Is Trying To Visit South Africa Again

    Back in 2016, American pastor Steven Lee Anderson, of the Faithful Word Baptist Church in Arizona, was banned from South Africa for his homophobic beliefs and behaviour.

    Then, following a whiny rant on social media about SA, he was booted out of Botswana.

    Unfortunately, despite the general consensus that South Africans don’t want this guy within our borders, our country is also home to a few bigots, and they’re trying to bring him back.

    The homophobic pastor has been invited to address a gathering by the People’s Revolutionary Movement (PRM) in Durban on November 10 this year, reports IOL.

    “We need the pastor to address people on the Role of The Church in the Global Socio-Economic and Political Environment,” says PRM president Nhlanhla Buthelezi (below).

    He said the PRM is a political movement that challenges homosexuality, abortion and prostitution in South Africa.

    “We also protect the existence of kings as chosen by God. We believe that without God’s instructions men cannot change morality.”

    Anderson (below) was banned by Home Affairs Minister Malusi Gigaba, who identified him as “an undesirable person to travel to South Africa”, following a petition signed by more than 60 000 people calling for a ban.

    Meanwhile, Cape Flats Reverend Oscar Bougardt is in the US visiting Anderson and to help him prepare for his trip to South Africa.

    “The Word of God will be preached and nobody will be able to stop us. His banning to South Africa was a temporary setback,” Bougardt said on Tuesday via email.

    “Yes, he is still banned, but we’re fighting this behind the scenes. According to our sources, it was illegal for the Minister of Home Affairs to ban him in the first place.

    “He didn’t break any laws in SA, the minister was under pressure from f*gs so he gave in to them.”

    No, hate speech like the term f*g goes against the law. Banning someone who openly violates our Constitution by spouting bigotry is a perfectly reasonable thing to do. Check your source – and if it’s a fictional, hateful god, check yourself.

    Time to get that petition going again, people. Maybe we can stop the good reverend from returning to this country while we’re at it.
