"But God, there was a point in time where God really, I, I really started to be attracted to other women." "I am one from, been healed from sexual brokenness and it took a long time." "It took a long time." "The anti-homosexuality law, there isn't a national dialogue around it and it's much more of a western media portrayal of what's going on in parliament." "And, honestly..." "And maybe Christian leaders' influence on it which seemed random, you know." "What do you think?" "We don't know all the details of the bill even." "We've never read it."
