The unfortunate myth perpetrated by most churches is that "morality" is equivalent to "sexual behavior," which is seen by most clergy, and those who believe them, as being the very definition of what it means to be "Gay." They probably don't see Straight people in that light, but they are tellingly obsessed with seeing one's being Gay in that light and in that light alone.<br /><br />Once people come to see that "Gay" does not merely equal "sex," and that being Gay is what one is and not merely what (if anything) one does, further inroads will be made to unmask the myths that have been religiously perpetrated, and have yielded much to clergy and others in the way of material and/or psychological gain.
