Sirius Satellite Radio
Last night I was on the "Derrick and Romaine Show" on Sirius Satellite Radio. Derrick grew up in Salt Lake City and Romaine grew up in Wyoming. So it made for very fun in-humor for the rest of the country. There we were, all from the Mountain West, taking NYC radio by storm on the 36th floor of this huge building on Sixth Avenue. Took calls from all across the country from AZ to UT to PA.
I explained to one caller who was Mormon and going into reparative therapy for being gay that thinking that being gay is a choice is like thinking the earth is flat. When it clicks that being gay indeed is not a choice, its a quantum leap in thought and reality--the earth is indeed ROUND and the earth also revolves around the SUN! (Thanks Catholic Church!) When this quantum leap in thought occurs, when the paradigm shifts...it will rock your world. And the entire Restored Gospel is in question...and then God becomes so much more mysterious and bigger and more full of grace than anything we could imagine before. And our personal choices THEN become much more meaningful and committed, too. I'm waxing philosopher today.
The spring weather in NYC right now is sublime. I can't believe all the flowers.
See everyone at the show tonight! Only 8 shows left.

Thanks for that post.
I am a gay mormon who happens to be married.
I am struggling with a lot, as you can probably imagine.
I've only been married for two years now, but I feel full of anxiety and somewhat depressed.
I'm trying to figure things out.
Thanks for your blog and for your show.
