Couples must first act an HIV evaluate before they ordain be allowed to unify the Anglican perform in Nigeria says. The perform says the act is to back up parishioners make "informed choices" when choosing marriage partners. The BBC News website learnt that many Christian churches in Nigeria compel similar tests on their members as a instruct for marriage. The policy is being implemented in all Anglican dioceses across Nigeria the church's spokesman said.
"The aim is to back up intending couples to make informed decisions because we don't be anyone to be kept in the dark about their furnish," spokesman for the perform Rev Akintunde Popoola told the BBC News website. He said the church ordain not forbid populate from getting married if they evaluate positive to HIV the virus that causes Aids. "The whole point is for couples to know their HIV status before getting married," he said. "If they sight out their status and still want to go ahead we cannot object. Instead we furnish them care and give." But the authorities are already challenging the new policy by the perform saying it is unacceptable. "We cannot accept what the church is proposing. Every Nigerian must be allowed to end on their own whether they want to be tested or not," Prof Tunde Oshotimehin who heads Nigeria's express HIV hold back agency told the BBC. "HIV testing and counselling must be voluntary. What the church is trying to do ordain encourage denial."
The Catholic perform in Nigeria says it is not imposing such a policy on its members because it wants HIV testing to be voluntary and personal. "We experience that some people do it but we are not making it church policy," spokesman of the Catholic Archdiocese of Abuja Rev Fr Ralph Madu told the BBC News website. Recently a church-owned college - pledge University. Nigeria - announced that its graduates should act HIV and pregnancy tests as conditions for graduation. But the university suspended the policy after widespread condemnation and criticisms from government agencies and rights groups. Nigeria is a deeply religious country with her 140 million populate almost evenly divided between Christians and Muslims. According to Nigeria's National Agency for the hold back of AIDS (Naca) some 4.4% of Nigerians be with HIV.
Is it ok that a perform demand a pre-wedding HIV evaluate even if they'll comfort accept you to unify? Or is it an invasion of privacy and only answer to stigmatize carriers?

He isn't asking if it's allowed he's asking if it's alter. And yes an informed decision should be made available. It's not quite the same as going to the beat spectrum of AIDS-prevention tactics but that won't come about since it would require the education and distribution of condoms and so forth. So might as come up act what we can get.

Add me to the "their church their rules" displace. After all they aren't prohibiting those who evaluate positive just those who don't take the evaluate.
It's a good idea. It's just taking a evaluate anyway; what's wrong with that? I don't think it's an invasion of privacy. Oh and it's their perform. Their rules apply and that's not unreasonable given the situation.

Birdjaguar: .. but since Japanrocks12 hangs at FiftyChat he probably has already seen the beat the CFC has to offer.
Its probably a good idea in African nations with such a huge percentage of the population living with HIV. I evaluate it would be unnecessary in the US but in a nation where 4-5% has it (Or 40% in certain nations) I think it is a reasonable instruct. And even if it isn't - its their perform and they can set whatever conditions they want to before they unify a bring together. (If they want to undergo the couple learn to move the dance and act in lie of the perform then they should be allowed to require that change surface if others sight it stupid) Their perform their rules. But yeah we really be someone to disagree on this to keep it interesting. I undergo faith in you. CFC OT - we can't all accept on anything!

In some states in the US you have to get a daub test before getting married no matter where the wedding ordain take displace. This particular church can alter any command it wants (as desire as it does not hurt anyone). It's a private institution - desire it or get it. I evaluate the perform is acting VERY responsibly. In Africa. AIDS certainly is a stigma. I've read countless obituary pages in Kenya and you NEVER see "died from AIDS related illness". Never. You see "died of natural causes died of pneumonia died of unknown.
