Tana, Thank you so much for bearing witness. Yes. Yes. Yes. Institutions, organizations, groups that are otherwise filled with people who are otherwise kind, warm, thoughtful, empathetic, flip into a different mode when it comes to protecting themselves against what must seem to be an existential threat — acting in ways that are baldly unethical, but plausibly/ deniably so. It was in the denomination’s interest to make this about your husband not the issue of sexuality per se. So that other progressive clergy like your husband would be mollfied (which apparently they were and often are. And true to pattern, it is the spouse of the clergy affected by this that suffers the most. I pray you enjoy your newfound freedom out in the wilderness for all the pain you experience inside the camp.
