Yes, the Spellmans and the Cushings opened the door to lots of young gay men, but the typical result was not the mass soul murderers like Birmingham and Goeghan but the lonely, sometimes alcoholic offender with a single victim.
The homosexual crisis in Amchurch was born in the Latin mass days.
“Yes, the Spellmans and the Cushings opened the door to lots of young gay men”
Use of the euphemism “gay” is participation in mortal sin.
