"They didn’t convince Africans. They are just preaching what they believe because they live by it in their country too."

"First of all, America never said polygamy was a sin, but rather that it is a crime. Maybe if you understood basic consent and the fact that legal marriage comes with social, legal and economic benefits in developed countries you would understand that there is no basis for comparing homosexuality with polygamy."
