Ed Smart, the father of kidnapping survivor Elizabeth Smart, posted on social media Thursday that he is gay, divorcing his wife and doesn’t see a place for himself in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

In “one of the hardest letters I have ever written,” Smart wrote in a Facebook message to family and friends that “I have recently acknowledged to myself and my family that I am gay.”

....and then he has the nerve to say, "...but there is one voice more important than any other, that of my Savior."

Your Savior sez, "Yeah, wife-dumping, family-wrecking and sodomy are fine, as long as you do it for lo-o-o-ve"?

Truly, there is such a thing as diabolical deception.

You’re getting some flak for this, but I think you have a point. This guy is a nobody in the grand scheme of things and his coming out is not news. He may have made the information public, but that doesn’t mean the media has to give it the time of day.

Saying he didn't "intend" it doesn't matter even one little bit

Didn’t the evil scum bag Hildebeast Clinton claim she had no intention of breaking the law too? I don’t believe it for a second, and I don’t believe this dip wad either. He’s a lying skank.

Except newsrooms and networks are heavily staffed by homosexuals in numbers far greater than general society. So they push an agenda without disclosing their personal interest in that agenda.

Poor Elizabeth Smart...talking about having EVERYTHING go bad in life for such a sweet girl. Hate to see what happens to her next.

“sorry your daughter was abducted and repeatedly raped and that’s how we came to know your name but ‘yay’ on finding gay love at last.”

What a queer story this is.

I think the biggest story here is the shot he is taking at the Mormon church. Mormons produce many gay children who hide their homosexual by getting married and conforming to church norms. Many homosexuals are vocally leaving the LDS church to pressure on the church to accept it.

Why is an announcement necessary?

Great question!

I don’t care to hear about Ed Smart’s sexual preferences. Descent people don’t talk publicly about their sexual activities. Ed Smart, I DO NOT WANT TO KNOW. KEEP YOUR PRIVATE SEX LIFE TO YOURSELF.

I’m sure this’ll help Elizabeth get through her trauma.

Selfish POS.

So this just has to be shouted from the media rooftops?
You couldn’t discreetly talk about it with your family?
He must have a book coming out, or a Reality Show.

Most people have forgotten who he and his daughter are.
Now, all this will be dredged up again.
Come to think of it his daughter has also continued to seek the limelight when she did not have to.

Talk about tearing the family apart. They must be beside themselves.

I always thought he was effeminate way back when his daughter went missing.

I guess his underpants are just a little more magical than is customary.

I will understand a lot of things I don’t yet in the future, but there is one thing that is certain. I will never even begin to understand how a dude can look at beautiful lovely women God created and go for a guy instead.

We really don’t need to know his mental problems. He needs treatment, maybe committed. Embarrassed for the family, community, and church.
