Set against that background, Oriented to Love was something of a miracle, partly because the people who came defied simple description. I learned of gay and lesbian people who, while fully owning their orientation, have chosen celibacy because of a deep fealty to their faith tradition. I learned about people who believe that nearly all sex is blessed and expresses aspects of God. I learned about gay people who, out of a deep and undeniable love, married their closest friends—of the opposite sex. I learned more about people who self-identify as queer, and those who believe marriage should be between one man and one woman.
