A Breakdown of "God Loves Uganda"

So, it took me a while to absorb everything done in this documentary. I will address several points I saw and heard in the works I have seen in the film.


  • Uganda is about 50% teenagers and younger
This is a testament to indoctrination. If you were to try and convince people that their lifestyle is wrong, what better audience than impressionable young minds, those who are uneducated and fascinated by the wealth seen in the west?


  • The monetary influences of US evangelicals has become a monster
One of the points made in the documentary, by missionaries, no less, is that after the Anti-Homosexual Bill of 2009 was introduced, in its original form which held the death penalty for repeat homosexual offenders, is that the donations to churches, and missionaries in Uganda tripled. The pastor of Uganda's largest church lives in a mansion while his flock lives in poverty, yet he is being supported by American Evangelicals, what is wrong with this picture?


  • The antagonism and hatred of the LGBT Community breeds some serious violent tendencies
Street preachers were seriously advocating for the murder of homosexuals in the streets, and the newspapers not only printed the names of homosexuals in Uganda, but also their addresses, adding more fuel to the violence and hatred in the country.

  • Revisionist history is at its best among the uneducated masses
Scott Lively is one of the most respected speakers in the Ugandan, the man claims that homosexuals were behind Nazi Germany, I mean you'd have to be a special kind of ignorant to believe that. You know, 'cause the Third Reich never condemned homosexuality (/sarcasm).

  • The hypocrisy in Martin SSempa
Martin Ssempa is one of the most prominent evangelicals in Uganda, he is famous Internet-wide for his "eat da poo poo" meme. But what most don't know, is that he exposed young children to graphic scat porn when he made that comment, showing image after image of homosexual scat porn to his congregation, perhaps some of it was from his own personal collection?

In conclusion, the documentary does well to expose the dangers of religion, as well as the influences American Extremist Evangelicals on developing nations. Extremists are pushing for regulations in developing nations because it is not acceptable in developed nations.
