Government is to consider the church�s views on the political transition while 
drawing the transition Roadmap.

 

The Vice President Prof. Gilbert Bukenya says that government has been 
cognoscenti of the remarks religious leader on the political transition.

 

He said this in a speech read for him by Kampala Central Division MP and 
Housing Minister Hon. Francis Babu at Our Lady and St. Jude Church Naguru 
parish golden Jubilee celebrations.

 

He says that the church has an important role in the social, Economic and 
political development of Uganda. 

 

He adds that the Church should freely participate in the selection of leaders 
and deliberation of policies that affect the Nation.

 

Meanwhile Emmanuel Cardinal Wamala has described as Ignorant Born Again 
Christians �Balookole� who preach against the Catholic Church for modern 
Churches.

 

The Cardinal says that this was foretold in scripture that such teachings would 
be there to divide and cause enmity in the church of God.

 

Pope�s representative Christopher Pierre, who addressed Christians at St. Jude 
Church said that Catholics Should remember that being born again is a spiritual 
transformation rather than moving to other churches.
