This Latin phrase sums up what you are saying; Qui tacet consentit .

In the modern age, it is common for people to be unwilling to speak the truth on this important topic because they fear condemnation or ridicule.

Thanks for bringing this story to us that we strangers can remember/acknowledge those boys. I hope there are strangers who care in the future for those affected by todays fetishes.

Extraordinary writing when modern pagans celebrate their month to sin in gay pride month. When just a few days ago a nude man in Rome climbed the main altar at St. Peter's Basilica, the martyrdom of the boys contrasts with what was already in their hearts, belief in God and the ability to give into death with hymns and prayers, but not into homosexual acts. Whereas today more examples of the Martyrs of Uganda are needed to encourage the value of commitment to God even if it means death. Thank you for this article as it highlights the valor of youth in the past to a heroic degree.

" When he tried to force them to perform homosexual acts, which was one of his vices, they refused ".

Allegedly, this is a requirement to enter the higher echelons of the U.S.A.s military service.

I did not know of this atrocity or of the African Mwanga and his vile deeds. these type of atrocities have carried on through the decades for different reasons. Did these people learn how to burn people alive from the White Man ? It seems rather ironic nowadays that if you declare in African Countries that you are a homosexual you might meet the same punishment.
