Shortly thereafter, he told his 15-year-old son that he “no longer believed what he used to believe.” His son responded with an even more direct word to his father: “Dad, I’m gay.” As Cortez writes, “My heart skipped a beat and I turned towards him and we gave one another the biggest and longest hug as we cried. And all I could tell him was that I loved him so much and that I accepted him just as he is.”

Yeah, right! He had no clue his son was gay, just announced his change of heart and presto, out of the closet!

He knew but was in denial. What parents like these have are guilty consciences. I’m sure if this Pastor would be honest that there is a moment or several where he failed his son by putting him in positions where he was corrupted either in body through molestation or in mind through association with those from the alphabet of deviancy.

Cortez had a difficult choice: to stay true to traditional Christian beliefs, or to stay on good terms with his son. He chose his son. That was his choice. However, he does not have the right to impose his choice on his congregation. He should have stepped down as pastor.

You know the narrative wordage is interesting...like out of some third rate novel...as in “ she looked at me earnestly, her gorgeous blond tresses catching the sunlight and her blue eyes glowing like inner lit aquamarines...and MY HEART SKIPPED A BEAT as she held my hand and softly spoke...”I love you! Now can you pass the horse radish?”

Americans need to get their heads out of their “Utopias happily ever after” narratives, better known as their rear ends!
