LOL, well not exactly , however please read my analysis of his statement which he has put up on his blog- republished pending his trip to Oxford union where he has been given a speaking engagement. They invited the devil and the devil they shall receive -

What makes this particular insidious is the fact that he has drummed up an argument, which he plans to flaunt on his Oxford audience, to elucidate sympathy for his cause. He truly believes that if he can draw the Magna Carta and its demise into the frame and attach it to is notion of how the Declaration of Human Rights should be perceived, then he can make the justification for his designed persecution of gays in Uganda. All the while we see clearly how the man has twisted history to vilify gays, while making it seem that he and Christianity are the victims.
