I don't pretend to know what those with same sex attractions have to deal with in their daily lives. I don't have that cross to bear. Cothran writes that upon speaking a a Christian minister: "I honestly figured that if I simply mentioned the 'L' [lesbian] word that she'd drop the phone, anoint it with oil and that would be the last I'd hear from her." Fortunately, that didn't happen and Cothran did come to the Faith.
The welcome is open in the Catholic Church as well. John Harvey of the Oblates of Saint Francis de Sales has founded a group called Courage which ministers to who who have to deal with same sex attractions or have loved ones who do. Our sexuality is a gift from God and needs to be sued in accordance with His Will. Given the culture we live in, temptations and failings are understandable, no matter what your sexuality. There are plenty of good counselors out there to help you overcome these issues and return to a better way of life.
And in a similar vein: In Turin, Italy, a left-leaning newspaper has published the testimony of a former homosexual who says that through prayer he was able to overcome same-sex attractions. Prayer can help us overcome anything. With God, all things are possible.
