A Gay Man, a Buddhist, and a Gay Father

A gay man who'd been raised in a fundamentalist Christian family felt certain that God would condemn him for eternity to hell due to his sexual orientation. So Matthew had become a Buddhist to step out of the church and all that condemnation. They created an altar by his bedside with a beautiful healing tunk on a Buddhist statue. He was having a really hard time. Franko said, I began to chant with him. I held his hand, massaged his feet, played his favorite music. Nothing didn't work because Matthew had spun into a world of confusion and shame and dread.
