					<description><![CDATA[So let me get this straight Mr. Mitchell, you also stated that:  &quot;It is so natural that similar numbers of butterflies, dogs and cows, share it with humans. &quot;  Are you therefore saying that pedophillia (grown men with bearded faces and grown women having sexual relations with children babies upwards) which is also a &quot;state of being&quot; or a &quot;state of nature&quot; as they claim and which we see occurring in the natural world amongst goats an sheep dogs etc right here in anguilla, is also okay and acceptable then? Is this really what you are saying?
Then what about beastiality? That okay too and natural? And what about necrophiliacs? Those who are attracted to corpses, and have sex with them? Natural too? Does this sound natural to you sir?

There is absolutely nothing  &quot;natural&quot; about inserting a penis into a rectum, from a physiological point of view, and also a histological point of view as well. These tissues do not have the required structure and physiology to accept friction from an inserted penis, as the vagina does. For example, the stratified squamous epithelium of the vagina builds (increases in thickness, and number of layers, and with a proliferation of mucus secreting cells during the hormonal cycle in preparation for sex. The rectal epithelium does neither. So on what grounds have you determined that this is &quot;natural&quot;?

And I can tell you flat out, there isn&#039;t one soul in Anguilla who is afraid of any homosexual, indeed no one in the entire world is afraid of or fear a homosexuals. Maybe it could be argued someone might fear HIV aids, but fear a homosexual? Why? I see you are repeating the usual mantra about fear, and fearing one&#039;s own sexuality. This is quite laughable sir, and I am sure that even you don&#039;t believe that!

It would have been better for you to say, &quot;fellow Anguillians, the homosexuals amongst us are humans with feelings that can be hurt, they feel the same pain that you do, and they&#039;ve got red blood coursing through their veins as you have. So let&#039;s just leave them alone to live their lives and enjoy themselves with each other&quot;.  I would have respected you more for that. 

To wrap up: I&#039;ll say this, homosexuality and all the aforementioned perversions of the natural order as designed by GOD, is most unnatural, and disordered, but to each his own. Peace.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There is a verse in Proverbs, that says (I&#039;m paraphrasing here): it is better to remain silent (and assumed, by others to be wise), than opening one&#039;s mouth and removing all doubt). 

I now have a different opinion of QC Mitchell now.

&quot;&quot; Then, Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are your accusers? Has no one condemned you?”
“No one, Lord,” she answered.
“Neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Now, go and sin no more.”
If even Jesus refused to condemn a person who was generally considered in his time to have engaged in an immoral act, which of us today is qualified to do so?&quot;&quot;

Whilst we&#039;re not qualified to condemn, we are qualified to encourage others and ourselves to &quot;Go and sin no more&quot; as Christ said.

We should have compassion on those struggling with same sex attraction (which on its own isn&#039;t a sin; it becomes sinful when the person yields to temptation and engage in the act.
QC Mitchell failed to acknowledge that the same JESUS said elsewhere in the gospels, and answered &quot;in the beginning GOd created them male and female&quot; a clear reference to male:female relations; also Christ said &quot;I and the Father are one&quot; (meaning one and the same, in response to the disciples who asked him to show them the Father etc. So QC Mitchell, CHRIST is GOD; GOD is Christ.... Who do you think is speaking in Leviticus about homosexuality being an ABOMINATION?
GOD is so INTOLERANT of sin (in all its forms, let alone those HE referred to as ABOMINATIONS), that HE gave HIS only begotten Son as a sacrifice to pay for those same sins. Does QC Mitchell now think that GOD has changed HIS mind about homosexual sin?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Firstly, who made this man an expert? Secondly, it&#039;s totally un-natural to be having anal sex, the bacteria are not meant to be in the urethra of a man and vice versa. However, we must not judge others , let private matters be people&#039;s own business.]]></description>
