This appeared on my Facebook feed and since lots of you don't partake, here's what he said, copied and pasted. I'm not sure if he will make it or not.
As being "gay" becomes increasingly synonymous with being against the The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, I have resolved going forward never to identify myself as such. I have had feelings of attraction toward men in my life, but I will never, ever forsake the gospel of Jesus Christ. Ever. If that means I must be alone, then I will be alone...but I know that I will always have the support of my Heavenly Father and of wonderful friends and Family who love me. This choice to stay true to what I believe is one I have made consciously. I know not everyone in similar situations sees this course of life as a choice for them, and I love each one of my friends for who they are and who they choose to be. I don't ever want there to be a question of the point of empathy that I stand from. Yes, I am a son of God. Yes, I have had and will continue to have trials in life, as every one of us does. No, my choice isn't the only way to go, but is the way for me to go. I love and will continue to hold to the truth!
