What part of the country is that? I'm surprised he hasn't left the church because of our policy regarding LGBT rights.

One of the main reasons I rejoined the church was because of its stance on justice for LGBT folks. I would have been loudly out the door at the first sign of hate.

BTW, I'm also agnostic, which my rector knows. Atheists and agnostics are also welcome in our parish.

I don't mean to dismiss your experience with that person. I only wonder why he feels comfortable in the Episcopal church.
