Breakthroughs in Colombia’s stalled peace process
Breakthroughs in Colombias stalled peace process
written by Adriaan Alsema October 30, 2016
While representatives of Evangelical Christians and FARC rebels announced agreement over gender-specific victim support, former President Alvaro Uribe had constructive talks with government peace negotiators.
Both the Evangelical Christians and Uribe represent significant minority constituencies that predominantly voted No in an October 2 referendum that suspended the ongoing peace process with the Marxist FARC, Colombias longest-living and largest guerrilla group.
Evangelicals resolve gender ideology concerns
Liberal Party Senator Viviane Morales and her husband pastor Carlos Lucio, who both had claimed that gender-specific victim support was based on gender ideology, said Saturday that in direct negotiations with the FARC they had resolved the elusive issue.
President Juan Manuel Santos has been negotiating directly with other evangelical pastors about the alleged affronts to traditional family values in the peace deal, but so far with unknown results.

So evangelicals were happy to vote "no" to the peace agreement for Colombia because of their own gender identity issues? Let thousands more Colombians die because their unrelated issue is more important to them that actual life itself for others? A-HOLES.
