		<description>On that same trip, DL did also swing past Jamaica.

You can imagine why.

Actually, you don't need to imagine: &lt;a HREF="http://www.exodusglobalalliance.org/files/WorldNews2006-01webversion_74.pdf" rel="nofollow"&gt;they told us&lt;/a&gt;.

Roger Marshall, splashed all over that newsletter, was a local lead figure against decriminalisation. He asked, they came.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the info, Norm.

It's worth noting that Alan Chambers was voicing his personal opinions on his personal blog. He was not speaking for Exodus International North America nor for Exodus Global Alliance.

Exodus International is a member/partner of Exodus Global Alliance. See page 3 of this &lt;a href="http://www.exodusglobalalliance.org/files/WorldNews2006-02Webversion_75.pdf" rel="nofollow"&gt;2006 newsletter&lt;/a&gt; in which EGA welcomed EI back to the global network.</description>

		<description>Last year, Exodus International President Alan Chambers issued a &lt;a href="http://www.alanchambers.org/just_think/2007/05/end_homophobia.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;statement&lt;/a&gt; proudly supporting International Day Against Homophobia.  In the comments of his blog, I asked if he also supported IDAHO's goal of decriminalizing homosexuality.  His &lt;a href="http://www.alanchambers.org/just_think/2007/05/end_homophobia.html#comment-69867274" rel="nofollow"&gt;response&lt;/a&gt;:

"No, I do not support the criminalization of homosexuality. If we criminalize homosexuality we need to criminalize a whole lot of other things, which would pretty much level the playing field. We'd all be in jail...."

Exodus International is somehow related to Exodus Global Alliance, but obviously there seems to be a conflict as to their position on the legality of consentual sex.  Like all ex-gay groups, Exodus is sending mixed messages.  To the public, it tries to refute the perception that it is a gay-bashing organization by claiming tolerance and Christian love.  However, to its political/religious supporters, it supports maintaining anti-gay laws.</description>
