He must’ve had a tough time in life but at least now he can serve as a positive role model and supporter for younger lgbt people in the church!

Well, being a gay Christian, or gay 99% of religions is hard. There are other Anglican churches where the bishops actively want to genocide gay people, for example, and the biggest Anglican subreddit is deeply homophobic.

It's uplifting that treatment of LGBT people in this specific church continues to become more just, but he personally is in a hard situation so you have to empathize with him.

Yeah but not so much Episcopalian in New England in 2022. Not to say that he doesn’t have challenges, but he’s in a pretty open church.

I was raised in a similar community and ended up gay. It’s not a fun time even if the people in close proximity to yourself are accepting of you.
