'South Africans frown on gays'

Cape Town - Most South Africans come from backgrounds that frown on homosexuality, said the ACDP.
"That is a fact. We cannot support a situation where a minority is attempting to impose its will on the majority," ACDP mayoral candidate for Cape Town, Pauline Cupido, said on Friday.
She was responding to what she called a "vicious personal attack on her by certain members of the homosexual lobby", following her pronouncement at the launch of the ACDP's election campaign that her party would seek to turn Cape Town into a God-friendly rather than a gay-friendly city.
This, she said, was in line with the values of the ACDP and the vast majority of the city's inhabitants.
Nobody could force a Christian to think in terms of the "humanistic values" in the Constitution.
"The vast majority of South Africans come from backgrounds that frown upon homosexual conduct," Cupido said.
The Christian Bible condemns as "an abomination" men who "lie with a male as with a woman".
