Among other things he says, "I don’t believe that most Mormons understand that the term 'same-sex attraction' is diminutive and offensive. I think we don’t grasp that. It reduces a gay person’s feelings for a partner, which are as rich and varied as yours and mine are with our spouses and which involve feelings of connectedness and a shared life, to 'attraction.' The term tries to make it all about sex."

Frankly, because we’ve tried to make those wards more Christian places to worship than many wards seem to be. And I’m here because I think every ward can and should be like that."
