  • Wow. It is very powerful to hear someone, who is not anti Mormon, put into words the complexity of this experience. Thank you.

  • As an active Mormon, I really respect this guy. He is really mature about everything, and it takes a really strong person to push through something so challenging with a positive attitude. kudos.

  • I'm a gay mormon convert. I converted two years ago. I turn 19 in one month and I just handed in my mission papers today(sunday). I told my bishop via text message after I left. We're talking about it in 3 days. Now I just found this, pretty cool.

  • Why not just say that you're bisexual, but that you're more attracted to guys?

  • thank you for sharing your story. u are an inspiration to many. 

  • @jjbellon22 On the contrary, they can be Mormon. Don't quote me on this, but I feel like, a homesexual person is a mental defect, much like autism, or something similar. I don't mean to be rude by saying that. So it's just a challenge God has placed upon them. I can't imagine how tough it is for homosexual people.

  • ummm gays cant be mormon!!! duh!

  • I can totally relate to your experience as a gay mormon. I ended up getting married. Now, three years later, I'm divorced. But as you explained so eloquently, what option do you have if you choose to stay in the church other than trying to make it work with a woman?

  • Yeah, well it's not fair to the women when the husband is addicted to pornography. And it's not fair to the husband when the wife is a gossiping liar. Nobody is perfect... and I'm not sure how people come to the conclusion that being homosexual is worse than any of these other sins.

    Mind you, homosexuality is a grave problem. But I respect all homosexuals that remain in the church to struggle with this issue.

  • I think it is a bit scary that a gay person is feeling pushed toward straightness. I don't think it is fair for the woman. It's not right.
