Sarah Palin's Kenyan pastor has made a name crusading against witches and particularly cherishes his victory over Mama Jane Njenga, whom he claims to have run out of his town. But Mama Jane is still there, in her own church just down the road.

KIAMBU, Kenya (WOMENSENEWS)--Back in 2005, when Sarah Palin was mayor of the tiny Alaskan town of Wasilla, nobody made much of a visit from a Pentecostal pastor by the name of Bishop Thomas Muthee from the somewhat larger Kenyan town of Kiambu.

Scores of African men and women of the cloth routinely travel to the better heeled nations of the world, bringing along the credibility of a continent of congregations that have had their share of brushes with war, famine and disease on a biblical scale. U.S. churchgoers hear how righteousness might prevail against the starkest of evils in faraway Africa. They might even be inspired to make a donation to support a pastor's work there.

...

"When Muthee came, he took a loudspeaker into the street and he told people to pray for seven days that I would die," Njenga says. "If I was not known in the town, I could not have survived even to put my children through school."

The woman who Sarah Palin's exorcist friend accused of being the source of Kiambu's problems...

2. In the 20 years Karande has spent volunteering to distribute HIV-AIDS medicines

and setting up centers for orphans and at-risk children, she hasn't gotten much help from clergy.

"We don't have any support from churches," she says. "Except maybe the Catholics."

3. well... i suppose it's a good thing he didn't actually succeed in having her bumped off

considering the fact that the good christians are still into witch burnings and stonings over there.

frightening, though, to note that our own evangelical fucking nutballs are so enamored of honest-to-god witch hunters. we have huge gatherings of "good christian" pieces of shit who would burn *me* and *my family* in a goddamned heartbeat if they felt they could get away with it.

4. Wow. That's really a great article.

Sounds like Muthee was more about killing the competition. Literally. What a horrid man.

5. Religious entrepreneurism is booming in Africa. {EOM}
