MOMBASA, July 18, 2003 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Kenya’s Catholics are girding themselves as feminist MPs promote the legalization of abortion and the glorification of homosexuality. Several government ministers are calling for legalization. Others say what is needed is tougher laws to support pregnant women and to force adulterous men to support the children. Mombasa archbishop John Njenga called abortion “outright killing” and said the proposals are a threat to the moral fabric of society. “Nobody should interfere with the unborn child; it has the right to be in the womb until it’s time to be born, and anybody flushing it out is interfering with God’s creation.” Others are drawing attention to the negative moral impact of American and European entertainment. However, clean local TV programming can be a tough sell. “It is boring … and shoddily done,” one information technology student told reporters. “Foreign television soaps are more interesting and their quality much better.” For newswire and BBC coverage: https://www.nationaudio.com/News/DailyNation/Today/News/News1807200316.html https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/3075221.stm https://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/nm/20030718/lf_nm/life_kenya_soaps_dc_1
