He didn't try to be what everyone else wanted him to be...but, allowed himself to be the way God made him....gay.
What happens when people suppress their God-given sexual orientation....obviously, it manifests itself into questionable actions.
Please don't quote the scriptures about homosexuality in Leviticus, and 1 Corinthians, etc... we all know the scripture... this is not a question about what the Bible states, but about God's love, mercy, direction and will for our life.
Finally, what happens when priests suppress their god given sexual desires? Again, they manifest themselves into hurtful and harmful actions...
Why can't we accept and love people the way God made them, and quit trying to force our own preconceived notions and ideas upon them....
Religious dogma and rhetoric needs to be put aside and let God work through everyones individual heart.

Jesus does not make people gay! It is a choice
he made me Jewish by birth but I had to chose-from there= THE TRUTH IS WE WERE PROMISED A MESSIAH-Isaiah 9:6 UNTO us will be born a child, a son will be given and he will be almighty God and the prince of peace."
Isaiah 52:13-53:12 "He will be exalted...first he will be marred more than any man, and lay down his life to make atonement for our sins, He will die with the wicked and be burried with the rich."
who do you know fulfills this and the commanded blood sacrifice innocent for our guilt Moses Leviticus 17:11
Romans 1 says homosexuality is a choice -which comes from being unthankful and worshiping the created instead of the creator, and comes into a reprobate mind to do what is unseamly man with man as with a woman
Jesus blood has set many free from this and all other sins too, its never too late in amazing grace thanks.
from a Jew who believes Paul (Romans 1) Moses, Isaiah and the Messiah too. and praying for you

I think it's sad that he felt the need to lie to his congregation, his wife, his kids but mostly I feel sad that he lied to himself. I can only imagine the upbringing he had that made him so afraid to just be what he is.

Oh I'm sure, since he slinked off to the desert, he'll be surfacing as gay again soon, one way or another.
