Grew up Catholic. During a health crisis in 97 I joined Knights of Columbus and attended church 5-6x/week. In Feb 2000 my died and I was told by KofC that my family couldn’t use council hall (we have priority for family death) because my had addiction issues. During another meeting we were told we HAD to actively promote anti-gay, anti-porn and anti-abortion messaging. I’m gay and was targeting, but sitting next to me at the meeting was a member who was convicted of molestation of his granddaughters and their little friends. Hypocrisy made me quit, and when priest was forcing parishioners to sign petition against gay marriage was last draw (priest was dating my male roommate at the time).
