Kinda reminds me of the seven sons of Sceva.

It's too bad that the assumption is that condoms = immorality. We have no idea why he had those condoms. It was a mob reaction rooted in pure ignorance.

I did some thinking when I read this and maybe he preaches or encourages safe sex in marriages because of the high rate of HIV and AIDS in Africa?

Or maybe he's married and they're his. Who knows? I just think it's a shame that he was not only attacked by a mindless mob in Africa, but also verbally attacked by presumably more educated, civilized people in the states. (Check out the comments under the original article.)

People really enjoy jumping to the most scandalous explanation possible. It's human nature.

This guy was preaching the law and standards; his gospel wasn't the true gospel referenced to by Apostle Paul.

"The pastor had commenced his journey in Apapa and proceeded to preach to the riders aboard the bus, uttering statements such as, “If you wear trouser you’ll go to hell! The devil invented make-up! Weave-on is from marine kingdom! If you have pre-marital sex you will burn in hell and your skin will peel!”

The reverse of his alleged statements is false. Not wearing trousers, make-up, weaves/front-laces, abstraining from pre-marital sex won't take you to heaven either!

Yes, and that means he deserved to be beaten by a mob.

[jediwill83]

Not saying he deserved to be beat at all....but if you hold others to high standards they are going to be extra critical of any perceived faults of your own.....like I said im not celebrating what happened but the dude should have used just a wee bit of tact....and kept the comdoms in his wallet.

It is the words concerning his preaching of safe sex as well leads me to believe that he is of a rather dubious character. At the very least, if these were not to be used by him for illicit purposes, he has at least learned to keep them in a more secure situation from this point forward. Their presence does lead one to disbelieve his message. I would be skeptical of anyone who was caught like that. At least until I heard his explanation, and I would wish to know of his reasons. It is only logical.

True....I tried to look at it from several angles...I mean advise safe sex yes...but not preach it.
