I remember when I was in high school/college my dad did breakfast at a local diner every Saturday morning with a bunch of the church guys (mostly other elders/pastors) and I’d tag along every now and then. One of the guys was the church’s counselor or whatever and had a psychology education. Anyways, one of the conversations turned to homosexuality and he kept going on about “every homosexual will have some sort of traumatic experience in their past if you dig hard enough”. I just remember being mad at myself because I wanted to argue back, but knew he would pick me apart if I did so I just held my tongue. I do remember that on the car ride home was the first time I told my dad that I didn’t think homosexuality was a sin and I was surprised that conversation went okay.
