A Church of England statement today has said it will uphold its position that marriage is only between a man and a woman and would not let same-sex couples wed in its churches.
The development follows the Church of England’s six-year consultation on sexuality and marriage, among other topics. The proposals were developed by bishops, who make up one of three parts of the church’s governing body known as the General Synod. They will be presented to the General Synod at a meeting next month.
The Church of England is the mother church of the international Anglican churches which includes more than 85 million people in more than 165 nations. These include the Anglican in Zimbabwe and its followers.
The statement confirmed a BBC story from the previous night that bishops had declined to endorse a change in teaching to permit priests to marry homosexual couples. “Same-sex couples would still not be permitted to get married in a Church of England church,” the statement added.
According to announced proposals, same-sex couples who get legally married can attend a religious service where there will be “prayers of dedication, appreciation, or for God’s blessing on the pair.” In 2013, Britain legalized gay marriage.
Said Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury.
<blockquote>
“I am under no illusions that what we are proposing today will appear to go too far for some and not nearly far enough for others, but it is my hope that what we have agreed will be received in a spirit of generosity, seeking the common good” 
</blockquote>
Meanwhile, according to the statement, the Church of England bishops will be issuing an apology later this week to gay people for the “rejection, exclusion, and hostility” they have faced in churches.

The Anglican Church Of England Refuses To Allow Gay Marriages

Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) Commissioner-General Godwin Matanga, Home Affairs and Cultural Heritage Minister Kazembe Kazembe and a police officer only identified as Mabika have been ordered by the court to pay ZWL$800 000 to a Mbare resident who was arrested by the police in 2021.
According to the Zimbabwe Lawyers for Human Rights (ZLHR), Tinashe Maumbe (24), a resident of Mbare, was arrested together with his friends Reward Majoni and Tinashe Majoni by ZRP officers on 16 January 2021.
The trio was walking past Matapi Police Station in Harare’s Mbare high-density suburb when the law enforcement agents manning the entrance to the police station enquired where the trio was going.
The ZRP officers allegedly accused Maumbe and his friends of being homosexuals and told them that homosexuality is not permitted in Zimbabwe.
The trio was subsequently detained by the police and no charges were preferred against them. In fact, they were jeered by cops and were only released after ZLHR lawyers intervened.
With the help of Tinashe Chinopfukutwa of ZLHR, Maumbe sued Matanga, Kazembe and Mabika by filing a summons in April 2021 at Harare Civil Magistrates Courts.
Maumbe demanded payment amounting to ZWL$900 000 as damages for unlawful arrest, detention, humiliation and embarrassment. Said ZLHR:
<blockquote>
On 4 November 2022 and after presiding over the trial of Hon. Kazembe, Matanga and Mabika, Harare Magistrate Ayanda Dhlamini granted judgment in favour of Maumbe and ordered Matanga, Kazembe and Mabika to pay him ZWL800 000 as compensation for violation of his rights after ruling that ZRP officers had “hysterically” arrested the 24-year-old Mbare resident based on their personal opinion of members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and gender diverse, queer and questioning people.
Out of the ZWL800 000, ZWL$400 000 is for damages for unlawful arrest and detention while ZWL$400 000 is compensation for inhuman and degrading treatment.
Magistrate Dhlamini further ruled that the police officers, who arrested Maumbe, were not even aware of the COVID-19 provisions, which they purported to have cited upon apprehending him.
The Magistrate concluded that Maumbe’s arrest and detention was unlawful and that the police officers had jeered at him and insulted him for allegedly being a homosexual and by so doing, violated his right to human dignity guaranteed in terms of provisions of section 51 of the Constitution.

ZRP Ordered To Pay $800k To Mbare Resident Arrested And Accused Of Being Homosexual By Cops

The late Desmond Tutu’s daughter has been barred by the Church of England from leading a funeral because she is married to a woman.
Mpho Tutu van Furth is an Anglican priest in the Diocese of Washington DC and had been asked to officiate at the funeral of her late godfather, Martin Kenyon, in Shropshire on Thursday.
Ms Tutu van Furth told BBC News it “seemed really churlish and hurtful”.
The Diocese of Hereford said it was “a difficult situation”.
The Church of England does not permit its clergy to be in a same-sex marriage because its official teaching is that marriage is only between one man and one woman.
However, its sister Anglican church in the US, The Episcopal Church, does allow clergy to enter into gay marriages. a statement from the Diocese of Hereford said:
<blockquote>
Advice was given in line with the House of Bishops current guidance on same-sex marriage.
</blockquote>
After Mr Kenyon’s family was told of the Church’s decision, they moved the funeral service from St Michael and All Angels in Wentnor, near Bishops Castle, to a marquee in the vicarage next door so Ms Tutu van Furth could officiate and preach. Ms Tutu van Furth told BBC News:
<blockquote>
It’s incredibly sad. It feels like a bureaucratic response with maybe a lack of compassion.
It seemed really churlish and hurtful. But as sad as that was, there was the joy of having a celebration of a person who could throw open the door to people who are sometimes excluded.
</blockquote>
Mr Kenyon was close friends with the late South African Archbishop, Desmond Tutu.
Ms Tutu van Furth was forced to give up her right to officiate as a priest in South Africa after she married Marceline van Furth, a Dutch academic, in 2015.
Her father Desmond Tutu, who died in December 2021, campaigned in favour of gay rights and backed same-sex marriage.

Sexual Orientation Gets Desmond Tutu's Daughter Sanctioned By Church Of England

ZANU PF members of Parliament caused an uproar in Parliament on Wednesday after claiming some members on the opposition benches were homosexual.
During a question and answer session as MPs debated the measles outbreak in the country, Bindura South MP Remigious Matangira and Buhera South MP Joseph Chinotimba defended some religious sects that shun vaccination.
Some Apostolic sects in the country do not allow their members to visit clinics or hospitals for treatment when they fall sick or receive vaccination against COVID-19 or child killer diseases.
As legislators debated the issue, Norton MP Temba Mliswa (Independent), suggested that the government uses different forms of media to urge the public to be vaccinated. He said:
<blockquote>
Can there be a public announcement through the national radio, television, et cetera when such an exercise is being done to make people aware and help officers including departmental heads in various districts to disseminate the information that every child is supposed to be vaccinated?
It was the same again with COVID-19; other parents did not want to do that. We also talk about the very same constitutional provision of the right to life; that failure to do so, those parents will certainly face the full wrath of the law.
</blockquote>
Mliswa’s remarks did not go down well with Matangira and Chinotimba who vehemently defended the churches that do not recognise conventional medicines.
<blockquote>
Gesturing toward the opposition bench, Matangira then shouted, “ikoko ndiko kune ngochani (there are homosexuals on the opposition benches). People’s churches should be respected.”
</blockquote>
This infuriated Mliswa who demanded that Matangira withdraws his remarks. Mliswa said:
<blockquote>
Hon. Matangira should withdraw the statement that “uku ndiko kunogara ngochani” we can also retaliate but please withdraw that statement. Ngochani ndiyani? Do not be a coward Hon. Matangira, shame on you!
You say things that you cannot repeat even to your own children. You said it. Withdraw your words. Uri murume werudzii anorukwa musoro. Unoda kunyenga ani kuno? Hatikude nevhudzi rako iro isu. You lie to your family if you cannot withdraw that statement.
</blockquote>
National Assembly Deputy Speaker Tsitsi Gezi then intervened and ordered Matangira to sit down and for Mliswa to calm down.
Matangira then withdrew his statement. He said:
<blockquote>
I said that people from that side support homosexuality. I did not say there are homosexuals in this House.
Honestly speaking, we have a lot of people who are in jail but who did not commit any offence. Anyway, I withdraw my words.

ZANU PF MP Says Opposition Legislators Are Homosexual

Self-exiled former information minister, Jonathan Moyo, says CCC activists who claim journalist Edmund Kudzayi is a homosexual should question their party president’s sexuality too.
Moyo claimed Kudzayi and CCC leader Nelson Chamisa were very close and often conduct prayer night vigils together in the hills of Domboshava.
Kudzayi has been labelled gay by CCC supporters after he questioned the party’s lack of formal structures.
Moyo claimed “Chamisa and Kudzayi are tight brothers in Christ” and spend nights together in Domboshava. Moyo tweeted:
<blockquote>
While Chamisa’s supporters have singled me out for their vile slurs, with Edmund Kudzayi and my relatives as collateral damage, others like Stephen Chan, Chofamba Sithole and in the NewsDay, Zimbabwe Independent and The Standard have also made the structures critique!
What is telling and reveals hatred is that, while many others have made the argument for the indispensability of structures in the CCC, Chamisa’s base has targeted only me, Kudzayi and my relatives for its most vile slurs. The reason for this targeting is Nelson!
Interestingly, Chamisa and Kudzayi are tight brothers in Christ. They used to hold prayers–just the two of them–at Nelson’s Advocates Chambers office.
Vakomana vema all-night prayers kuzvikomo muDomboshava (these are boys who would go for all-night prayers in the mountains of Domboshava). Given this, are Nelson and Edmund gay partners?
Given the very close relationship he has with Kudzayi, it must be said strongly that Chamisa’s silence over the vile gay slurs from his supporters is proof of his profound moral and leadership bankruptcy.
If Edmund is gay as per the CCC slurs, so is Nelson!

If Edmund Kudzayi Is Gay, So Is Nelson Chamisa - Jonathan Moyo

The United Methodist Church (UMC) has stated its position on the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer (LGBTQ) movement.
In a statement, UMC leader, Bishop Eben Kunakayi Nhiwatiwa, warned congregants against accepting homosexual marriages as it is against the teaching of the Bible.
This comes after claims that the LGBTQ issue is on the agenda at the United Methodist Church Special General Conference of seven days expected to begin towards the end of August this year. Said Bishop Nhiwatiwa:
<blockquote>
The future of the church is in the hands of our able master and Saviour Jesus Christ, who is the author and finisher of our faith.
Marriage is defined in Genesis 2:24 as a union between one man and one woman.
Any sexual activity outside this context is sinful and is an abomination.
Such action upsets God’s divine order for human sexuality.
</blockquote>
<h2>What does Genesis 2:24 say?</h2>
Therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and cleaves to his wife, and they become one flesh [Revised Standard Version].
The LGBTQ issue was raised ahead at the 2016 General Conference and the Council of Bishops then agreed to have a Special General Conference in 2019 to make a final decision.
This is according to another letter circulating among church leaders expected to attend the General Conference scheduled for August 29 to September 6 2022.
The letter informs the church leaders that the rejected One Church Plan of 2019, has resurfaced with a different name “The Christmas Covenant”. The letter reads in part:
<blockquote>
Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer (LGBTQ) group kept growing and pushing for the Book of Discipline to be amended to allow for gay marriages and the ordination of gay and lesbian pastors.
Things got to a head at the 2016 General Conference.
The 2016 GC, through the Council of Bishops, then agreed to have a Special General Conference in 2019 to put a finality to this conflict.
The two main petitions at the 2019 GC were: The One Church Plan (this intended to allow Gay &amp; Lesbian marriages and ordination of Gay &amp; Lesbian Pastors through a decentralisation process with the church remaining as one THE ONE CHURCH PLAN).
Those who have followed these events carefully will have noticed that the One Church Plan, rejected in 2019, has resurfaced with a different name – The Christmas Covenant.
The same people, who campaigned for the One Church Plan, are back campaigning for the Christmas Covenant.
And The Traditional Plan – This advocated to keep the church in the current set-up and upholding the current BOD, which does not allow Gay &amp; Lesbian Marriages and ordination of Gay &amp; Lesbian Pastors.
Allow us to point out that because the General Conference is yet to sit, there is no position taken by the General Church at the moment, therefore, no one should be victimised.

Methodist Church Rejects Same-sex Marriage

Mozambique will remove a seventh-grade natural science textbook from schools after outrage on social media over content that discussed masturbation and homosexuality.
Pupils in the southern African country have studied “The Secret of Life” by Portuguese publisher Texto Editores for the past 18 years.
However, sections of a chapter on sexual orientation and masturbation went viral on social media after being posted on Facebook last Thursday.
The education ministry responded by withdrawing the book, with controversial parts to be struck off in a new edition to be rolled out later this year. Education Ministry spokeswoman Gina Guibunda said on Tuesday:
<blockquote>
For us, the topic of sexuality is important and should continue to be addressed.
</blockquote>
She said that sex education will continue to be taught but “in a way that does not create problems in society”.
A section of the book taught to children aged between 12 and 13 reads “sometimes it is more comfortable to have a relationship with someone of the same sex. It is called a homosexual relationship.” 
Homosexuality is a taboo in many African countries and is an offence that attracts huge penalties.

Mozambique Removes From Schools A Book That Discussed Homosexuality

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on Thursday passed a bill that prevents marriage officers from refusing to conduct same-sex marriages.
According to the Civil Union Amendment Bill, the Home Affairs Minister must ensure a marriage officer is available to solemnise a civil union at every office.
Earlier, the Centre for Human Rights welcomed the passing of the bill by the National Council of Provinces (NCOP).
Spokesperson Thiruna Naidoo said the bill repealed Section 6 of the Civil Union Act 17 of 2006 (CUA), which provided that a marriage officer may, in writing, inform the Minister of Home Affairs that he or she objects to solemnising a civil union between persons of the same sex on the ground of conscience, religion, and belief.
Naidoo added that this provision had long been a barrier to the legal recognition of same-sex couples by marriage officers in the Department of Home Affairs. Said Naidoo:
<blockquote>Under the Civil Union Amendment Bill, a transitional period of 24 months is given [for] the Department of Home Affairs to train those officials that had previously been granted an exemption by the minister.
During this transitional period, a marriage officer, other than those granted exemption, must be available to solemnise a civil union at every Department of Home Affairs office to ensure that same-sex couples are no longer turned away.</blockquote>
Naidoo further said the bill was a positive step toward eliminating existing differentiation between marriages and civil union partnerships, reducing discrimination against same-sex relationships and achieving equality for same-sex couples in South Africa.
The development comes as the head of the Roman Catholic Church, Pope Francis said in a film released on Wednesday that homosexuals should be protected by civil union laws.

SA Marriage Officers Now Compelled To Conduct Homosexual Marriages

A study by the Gays and Lesbians of Zimbabwe (GALZ) has revealed that universities in Zimbabwe are not yet open to supporting LGBTI people. This, the study concludes, results is LGBTI people suffering from stigma and as a result, depression.
GALZ director, Chester Samba told The Standard that the organisation therefore needs to invest in engaging universities and the ministry of higher education to address the climate of university campuses for LGBTI people.
Said Samba:
<blockquote>We&#8217;re working to foster student development in an environment that is appropriate, non-stigmatising and non-discriminatory and formulating strategies to reduce presence of homophobia and transphobia in institutions of learning.
So far the university is not so open to support LGBTI even though there are some members of staff who are accepting and understanding to our issues.
We have a long way to go before the inclusion of LGBTI people in unversities.
Most universities are blind when it comes to issues of sexuality and them refusing to confront such relaities is what is making most LGBTI persons suffer from depression.
The universities in Zimbabwe are so much inclined to government ideologies which are profouond on an individual and claimed to be cemented by tradition.</blockquote>
Institutions included in the research include UZ, Great Zimbabwe University, MSU, NUST and nine others.
