CHRISTIAN LEADER BLAMES GAYS FOR MINING MASSACRE
Long-time foe of South Africa’s gay community, Pastor Errol Naidoo from the Family Policy Institute, has blamed gays and lesbians for creating a “culture of death” that led to the Marikana Massacre.
“Abortion-on-demand – driven by radical feminist activists – and the homosexual agenda, lie at the heart of the culture of death. These anti-family groups are responsible for population decline,” wrote Naidoo in his latest newsletter.
In the letter, the Cape-Town-based Christian leader railed against feminists and gays and lesbians for perpetuating this culture of death that he claims “is slowly killing off the human family in Western civilisation”.
Naidoo said that these groups and their culture of death were to blame for the “rapidly diminishing rights and freedoms of Christians in SA”, “the growing holocaust of abortion on demand”, “teen pregnancies”, and “the Marikana Massacre”.
The Marikana mine disaster saw 34 mine workers protesting over wages and union recognition killed by police in a horrific fire fight.
Journalist Mandy de Waal commented on Twitter: “When I read [Naidoo’s newsletter] I become more convinced that strains of religion are akin to a virus that destroys rationality.”
Disturbingly, Naidoo revealed that his church has shot a television show, titled Watchmen on the Wall, which will debut on the Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN) Africa, a Christian television channel on DSTV, on 4 September at 7 p.m. It is unclear if the show will espouse his openly homophobic and bigoted agenda.
Mambaonline contacted TBN Africa for comment and is awaiting a response from its director. The channel did reveal that Watchmen on the Wall will be an actuality programme from a Christian perspective, hosted by Naidoo, that will be broadcast weekly.
Mambaonline is also awaiting a response from DSTV/Multichoice on if it would bear ultimate responsibility if Naidoo broadcasts his hate message on its pan-African satellite network.
Naidoo’s Family Policy Institute is a Christian fundamentalist lobby group which is openly anti-gay and has sought to repeal same-sex marriage rights in South Africa.
Naidoo, who believes that homosexuality can be cured through prayer, has campaigned against the Pink Loerie Mardi Gras Festival in Knysna and against the City of Cape Town’s efforts to attract international gay tourists.
He was quoted by Nigeria’s This newspaper as saying: “I hate gays. It runs against God’s wishes”.
This guy is completely fucked in his head- he is the pastor from hell that works for Satan- We should not give any attention to this fool, because thats exactly what he wants, negative publicity. And if he airs sucks discriminative substance he should be sued. He will be violating the countrys constitution. Why doesnt he fight abortion or something of the sort or help the poor, but instead he things he is God of judgment.
I hope that Dstv is not gonna publish this rubbish!!!
Well Pastor Naidoo, Let me tell that lots of people have lost faith in churches because you people you teach something and then you turn around and do the opposite. Dont come with you shit here. I personally dont do religions and politics. You should check the same bible that you read stating that judging another man is a sin. So just keep quiet!!!!
Whilst I abhor the principles of the man, I read the newsletter and your staff writer certainly knows how to sensationalise things. What the Naidoo guys actually said in context was that life was being devalued because things like legal abortions were incredibly on the rise and people did away with their fetuses without thinking. He said that ” numbness” to valuing life has lead to a “culture of death” ie where people no longer cared about life
To quote him
“The murder of more than a million unborn citizens has perpetuated a culture of death in SA. Life has become cheap and has lost its dignity and sanctity in a culture that glorifies self-gratification. There has been much hand wringing and recrimination about the Marikana Massacre. But when human life is diminished in the womb, that callousness will find its way into the national psyche.”
And I do not disagree with him on that principle.
Then he fcuks up here
“Abortion-on-demand driven by radical feminist activists – and the homosexual agenda, lie at the heart of the culture of death. These anti-family groups are responsible for population decline” Anti family???
I am all for family. I have been trying for a family with my husband for years but alas I am barren. Why, I tell you why???
Anyhow, I have written to him and challenged him on his viewpoints. Lets see if he responds. At least he has the guts on his newsletter to give a direct contact e-mail

we live in a rapidly changing world societies, which brings various cutures into a closer interaction with one another , and this interation could wither be positive or negative depending on the levels and sensitivity other cultural groups have to one another !!!! how stupid , people they always confused the notion on what God created , they would dwell too much on the bublible and start to preach the word of mouth, well we all know what God created but the question is in life one needs to ask “what have i created in oder for others to learn and benefit from me” and be able to stand and say as individual ,i have made the difference… life its self its amazing and it needs to be respected , god has given u life, and no devel in hell that could stand on ur way ” let me quote ” from the buble “through christ you can be what god has obtain you to be” and in this can i am nor a sinner , i am gay , and proud to be and i will never stop , gay people are not harming anyone if god has blessed you with powers why don’t u start saving the world “there deases out there , high rapes , people killing one another ! so why don’t you take your holly hands and prayers and start to pray bast the so called social change , we are all striving for perfection and nor none of us are … even there so called “christians” or confused ones
Only religiots can be Pro-Death Penalty, Pro-War, Pro-Unmanned Drone Bombs, Pro-Nuclear Weapons, Pro-Guns, Pro-Torture, Pro-Land Mines, AND still call yourself Pro-Life.
Pastor, The only difference between your God and Adolph Hitler is that God is more proficient at genocide.
So much for your evil imaginary friend: an almighty invisible deity that impregnated an unconsenting virgin so he could be born as his own son to go forth on a suicide mission to save his creations from himself hundreds of years after he tried to get every living animal species on earth into a single boat in order to commit genocide all because a naked rib-woman ate a magic fruit after she was convinced to do so by a talking snake
Organised religions need hate figures to galvanise the tribal mentality of us versus them, good versus evil. The subject of such hate has historically changed from anti-semitism, to sexism and racism. Now the focus of religiots has changed to gays.
R u kidding me! What a lazy bastard!! To my own amazement the man makes a thot provoking piece with substance, which is shocking cosidering how this vile man has no substance, then wat does he do he fucks it up with his amoral bullshit poorly disquised as morality. The reason why teen abortions r on the rise is because STRAIGHT kids cant seem it know how to use condoms. Gay kids can’t knock each other up! Another fact is kids hate double standards and hypocrisy more than any other age group .i.e. when u say “love thy nieghbour” then turn around n say “hate thy fag” it doesn’t rub them the right way (pardon the pun). They’ll justify thier actions using ur hypocrisy. Another one for the STRAIGHTS (IF ur actually straight). Oh n havin a leader who has a platoon of wives and is KNOWN to have a girlfriend or two doesn’t bode well for fedelity. ANOTHER ONE FOR THE STRAIGHTS!! As ppl’s total lack of human compassion and worth. I thot that was cause o the high crime rate due to n underpaid demoralised police force with less health benefits thn a suicide bomber due to lack of government support. Who runs this country Oh dats rite STRAIGHT PEOPLE!! Pastor dickhead it wud seem straights r still at th centre of our society’s decay
Some people remain assholes!
It is funny howww the gay community is the almost one of the most hated communities but yet we are so powerful that we could be responsible for all the things this dumb ass are blaming us for. I have a theory if you are truly hated by a straight guy like this there is an inderlying denail factor involved here. He is probably the BIGGEST motherfucking queen in south africa and he is to shit scared to live his life openly and now he hates “his” own community. Go fuck yourself mr “naai”do!
this guy is a complete douchbag!!! he has no brains and apparently no heart!
I love the fact that there is a bright blue dildo being advertised by a gay online sex shop right in line with this dick heads face in the photo, how apt, hahahahahahahahahaha. I wonder what he is trying to hide?
