Discussing the subject of husbands and political games over a chess match, he tells her, "I should recommend you find one to play it with you, rather than for you." He is as noble and upright as anything out of a Jane Austen novel - a savior, in short. We've grown so fond...

...embassy in Kampala has said it opposes the bill, as have other American officials. Even Scott Lively recently declared that the bill's proposed prescriptions go too far. Rick Warren, however, seems to be avoiding tackling the subject directly. Although he cut ties with Ssempa, the popular preacher released a statement to Newsweek saying, "It is not my personal calling as a pastor in America to comment or interfere in the political process of other nations."
