Exactly. Stupid thing to do. Apart from anything else, he wasn't exactly convincing.
I wonder how it would have gone if he had said he was against gay Sex, but would not do anything to legislate against it. I for one would at least have given him some grudging respect for his honesty.

I wouldn't jeer at them.
I'd protest against them making decisions based on their favourite bit from 'Lord Of The Rings' or the one about the talking lion.

He should have been open and forthright from the beginning and just said these are his religious views, he had no intention of changing them but also had no intention of using his privileged position to force his views onto others either. He may rightly have come into criticism for the actual viewpoint, but people tend to respect others who are committed to their beliefs and don’t flim flam for political gain.
Also begs the question, whilst we have every right to criticise religious belief how tolerant are we actually to freedom of religion nowadays. The fine line between criticism and a witch hunt seems to have disappeared.

Are there any politicians who say what they really think when in power(apart from Trump)?
I don't think there are.I think they are all too PC and scared to say what they really think because
these days if you say the wrong thing you will be politically executed.
