1 CHAPTER ONE GENERAL INTRODUCTION 1.0 Background To
CHAPTER ONE GENERAL INTRODUCTION 1.0 Background to the Study Acts of conflict and violence occur daily in different parts of the world. This is due to a variety of motives, which include political fanaticism, ethnic hatred, religious extremism and ideological differences. Conflict is perennial and an ingredient towards the actualization of individual and group interests. According to S.A. Ayinla, it is a natural announcement of an impending re-classification of a society with changed characteristics and goals and with new circumstances of survival and continuity1. Conflict is a universal human experience. Its origin and nature are best explained within the framework of human nature and environment in which man lives2.Conflicts and violence are common factors in both secular and sacred institutions. In spite of the fact that the church is believed to be a holy institution ordained by God, she has never at any time outgrown conflicts and violence. This is due to the fact that, the affairs of the church are administered by human beings who are not always perfect or faultless. By 1975, the Warri Diocese, Anglican Communion, had not existed as a corporate Christian entity.

TITLE: Attitudes to sexual coercion and rape within the Anglican Church, Cape Town: A cross sectional survey Okwuosa .O.S MB; BS. Odili Sabastine. Division of Family Medicine and Primary Care, University of Stellenbosch. Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Masters in Family Medicine (MMed) degree Supervisors: Prof Bob Mash Rev Canon Rachel Mash 1 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za “Declaration I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this assignment is my original work and that I have not previously submitted it, in its entirety or in part, at any university for a degree. Signature: ............................……...................... Date: ..………………..............” 2 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract. Introduction: In South Africa 5.6-5.9 million people are currently living with HIV/AIDS, making South Africa the country in the world with the largest number of people living with HIV/AIDS. Despite numerous government measures to curb the pandemic, the prevalence and deaths due to HIV/AIDS have continued to rise to unacceptable levels. South Africa is reported to have one of the highest rates of sexual violence in the world and has the worst known figures for gender–based violence for a country not at war. Violence and coercive practices have been found to dominate sexual relationships in South Africa. Male dominance in sexual relationships as well as the role of traditional masculinity has made women vulnerable and encouraged the spread of HIV/AIDS. Church attendance has been found to have an inverse relationship with domestic violence. This implies that the church through its community engagement could assist with reducing gender based violence and sexual coercion. -
The Role of Arch-Bishop L. Brown in the Establishment of the Church of the Province of Uganda. Leslie Wilfrid Brown Lived Betwee
The role of Arch-Bishop L. Brown in the establishment of the church of the province of Uganda. Leslie Wilfrid Brown lived between 10th June 1912 and 27th December 1999. He was Bishop then Archbishop of Uganda before returning to England to be Bishop of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich1. Brown was educated at Enfield Grammar School before studying for ordination at the London College of Divinity. He was ordained priest by the Bishop of Portsmouth in 19362. After a curacy at St James, Milton, Portsmouth he went out to the Diocese of Travancore and Cochin on the Malabar coast of India in January 1938, working there for the Church Missionary Society, and eventually becoming Principal of the Kerala United Theological Seminary3. In 1952 he accepted the post of Bishop of Uganda, despite having doubts because of his support for indigenization. Upon his appointment, the then Mukama of Bunyoro congratulated him with these words; “It has been much pleasure to hear that you have been appointed as a bishop of Uganda instead of Bishop Stuart who has done a big job for Uganda. I trust you, as well as he has done, will energetically serve the Church in Uganda successfully…..”4 In regard to the above letter, apart from the Mukama of Bunyoro a number of very important people including Muteesa of Buganda congratulated him and were willing to welcome him and ready to serve with him as Bishop. Muteesa as well had this to say; “I assure you of a very warm welcome and cooperation of us all, on your arrival”5 1 Available on; Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie_Brown_%28bishop%29 , accessed on 27/02/14 2 Accessed from the UCU Archives, George Cicestr, letter responding to the questioning of the appointment of Rev. -
