“I would refuse to go to a homophobic heaven. No, I would say sorry, I mean I would much rather go to the other place,”
“I would not worship a God who is homophobic and that is how deeply I feel about this.“I am as passionate about this campaign as I ever was about apartheid. For me, it is at the same level,” he added.
