Letters to the Editor on Luo circumscision in Kenya

To Jairus K’Onyiego
You are not making sense. Are you cut? And the fact that you worship a white God who demands more tithes that ministry to the soul doesnt amaze me. We are not stupid and the fact that only 25% of the world population is circumcised seems not make sense to you.
If circumcision was the panacea you know that swaziland could be having the lowest HIV figures. Tanzania could not be having more Waha, Kuria and Nyamwezi infected more than anybody else. Lets not argue like some semi literate buffoons. If you feel ashamed that your tribe is being chided with circumcision, kill yourself.

To Ya All,
There is no science involved in cutting out the foreskin of a Penis. Neither is there science that Kenyans are dying en mass out of ignorance on failing to face the issue of primary cause of the spread of the HIV virus, which is SEX.
In this modern day world where people still hide behind ignorance and end up finding a thousand and one excuses as to what is ailing them, other than the HIV virus, and while they still engage in sex with multiple sex partners, trying to prove the “African Manhood” (the stronger or the powerful one is he who can sleep with as many beautiful women as his money can afford him) we are still in for a very long journey. We already know damn too well that in every five women or men one must be carrying a “MDUDU” or has developed it. So why would an individual still be engaged in this “Sports Sex”, knowing damned too well that, by the time he /she runs through the fifth woman/Man he/she will have been exposed to MDUDU.
As long as we do not change our mindset, then MDUDU is still going to keep sending our men/women to the grave just as propshesied in the book. Deuteronomy 28:20. You shall be rebuked by the father and he shall curse you with desease to ravage you to the grave. Luke 18:20 tells you that you know the commandments. Follow them. It is what wil save you from the wrath of Yah-weh. My take is that the most important thing that we need, is education and or awareness of these circumstances. Stupid habits must go. Secondly Culture is not stagnant and those Jaluo “Kers” must be amending some of these cultures to be in tandem with the present day life.
As for those who are ignorant and still do not understand the Genesis of Circumcision and “TERO MON”, I would urge you to turn to the Holy Book, which is the History of the Black Man for thousands of Years. I also ask them to tell me Why a JALUO would still practise TERO MON as was commanded
> in the Bible, but yet refuse to Circumsise as the laws given to Moshe our forefather by Nyasaye otherwords called Yah-weh at got Sinai?
If you are in doubt, then right to me so that I can quote to you the Books and phrases where these are written in the Bible.
