Back, back, back, in the '60's a new setting of the Ordinary parts of the Mass was written and it was known as the Mass in Honor of the Martyrs of Uganda.
Not a great piece of music.
So who are the martyrs of Uganda? Now, that's a story you won't hear in these times, at least not from Fr. James Martin, SJ.
Today is the feast day of a saint, who died as a martyr especially because he resisted a sodomite king, who was furious that he and many children wouldn’t have homosexual sex with him.
St. Charles Lwanga and many other martyrs died between 1885 and 1887 in Uganda. They were beatified in 1920 and canonized by Pope Paul VI in 1964....
All for resisting sodomy.
