He came out publicly in 2008. Since coming out, he has been performing his music in the mostly gay Metropolitan Community churches. Fortunately for his own mental health, it doesn't sound like he's using Ted Haggard as a role model.<br><br>Here's the link to the article from September 2008 with the Washington Blade.

Many fundamentalist Americans think God directed the Europeans to this land for some great Divine purpose. They believe God directed them to victory after victory in their pursuit of Manifest Destiny. I think having better organization and more guns and more resources played a significant role. America actually has a pretty sorry track record of slavery and breaking treaties with Native Americans etc. I am not anti-American by any means, but having more money and resources and guns seems to have played a major role in our existence. Call is "natural selection of the nations" if you will.<br><br>Humans have a tendancy to get big heads when things go right. Many people want to believe God blessed them above all others. That leads to even bigger heads.

Also, this idea of lust being a sin is ridiculous. It is a sin to lust after women, but it also a sin to be a homosexual. There is no way to win with all of this biblical nonsense.
