In retrospect and considering that I only had that person's side of the story--not his fathers--you're probably right. It sounded pretty hopeless, though. And this is a whole 'nuther can of worms but he said, when the discussion about being gay and the church came up as it was bound to, that he was attending a
gay church and was enjoying the worship very much.

There was also some bitterness there with regards to the amount of time his father spent at his ministry. There wasn't much of a relationship between father and son because of it. I guess thats where the guilt thing came it.
When I wade back through my memory I see most of it was rationalization on his part. He knew the bible pretty well and knew what he was doing wasn't right but he kept right at it.
Anyway, good point and well taken.
