So...Anglican Communion issues, part 392

Uganda has decided that just putting people in prison for having gay sex...well, it's not good enough.

So instead we're going for: criminalising homosexuality, people who practice it, people who talk about it or 'promote' it...yeah.

And the Church of Uganda (part of the Anglican Communion) is backing it.

Oh, and did I mention the death penalty part? No? Allow me to mention the death penalty part.

Pernicious, isn't it? And very reminiscent of

"First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak out for me."

Lord, have mercy.
