That’s really tertg, to see the challeng people are facg today were faced 100 years ago, except secret, bee [homosexualy] was a crime. I talked to [actrs Deborah Grover] about what ’s like to play a gay character, and we had a nversatn about that, and that was nice. They talked about how his edic vios have evolved over the years, how he turns ias to sketch, his creative fluenc, his gay athetic, and why he so often appears onstage or vios wearg nothg but his unrwear.
But ’s funny that you would scribe that sensibily as gay, when the s is such a tool of nuclear fay nventn. When you scribe the athetic or the sensibily as gay, I’m cur to hear what that means to you, or how you might expla , pecially to someone who’s not gay. I don’t have any strong feelgs for Love, Simon eher way, but jt as an example, that’s a gay story for a straight dience.

Once ed as a tool to enurage children around the world to overe challeng the face of adversy, Anne of Green Gabl has clearly been hijacked for the purpose of normalizg homosexualy.

He prefers “gay” bee don’t gloss over what he experienc, even though he’s aware that the church n rry the nnotatn of one who acts on their sir. He wr, “[I]f I’m hont, there are issu I nsir more theologilly straightforward than gay marriage that scere Christians have disagreed on for centuri” (108).
Rather than hold out the possibily that the Bible might be okay wh homosexual relatnships—which I believe is likely to damage those the thick of same-sex sir—I’d rather affirm the strongt terms that God is clear, and plead that his Word be read.
