It’s not a funny joke(s), as we know
He’s 0 for 3
It comes off as insincere since he didn’t change until the controversy was flying
I put him in the Andy Stanley camp
When he denounces the Book of Mormon and LGBTQ publicly I’ll be more apt to believe him.
It’s not that there was an “LBGTQ” person hired for the production - he responds to an argument not being made. The individual put symbols / graphics on their cameras/equipment, wearing clothing, etc. promoting this cause and message - seeming to be deliberately disrespectful to whom he was working for - decorating your camera, etc. has nothing to do with your job. They were also indifferent to this by allowing this imagery into the highlight reals of the production. That is another issue. But he responds with “well, we were just hiring a cameraman and wanted the best person for the job.” Has nothing to do with the issue that arose.
That and being indifferent to get core theology correct, and finding humor in things that should be completely devoid of humor are all real cause for serious concern.
