Is it Possible to be Openly Gay & Catholic?








Scott Pomfret discusses his humorous latest book, “Since My Last Confession.” He shares his experiences being a lector in his church, Saint Anthony Shrine. However, after the book was published there were repercussions. He was told by the church he could no longer serve because he supports LGBT equality & operates Romentics, a company that publishes hot gay male romance novels. He's committed to his faith & believes in living his life honestly & openly. Scott feels that being an ex-Catholic makes about as much sense as being an ex-Gay. As for his day job, Scott's an enforcement attorney with the United States Securities & Exchange Commission in its Boston District Office. His task is to investigate securities fraud & with today's market he assured us he's very busy going after the white collar criminals that have corrupted our current economy ..:) For More Info: ScottPomfret.com

New Poll: "Americans Support LGBT Rights"


Listen to GLAAD's President Neil G. Giuliano & Rashad Robinson, Senior Director of Media Programs, discuss the results of a new poll that the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation commissioned Harris Interactive to conduct. This is a nationally representative survey among U.S. adults over the age of 18. The objective of the study was to understand public opinion on LGBT people & LGBT-related policy issues. The results are very encouraging....:)


The Pulse of Equality survey shows that majorities of Americans favor either marriage or civil unions/domestic partnerships for gay & lesbian couples. The poll also shows support for gay & transgender inclusive hate-crimes laws, non-discrimination laws & allowing openly gay service members to serve in the armed forces. Also, a majority opposes laws that would ban adoption by qualified gay & lesbian couples. For more info: GLAAD/HARRIS POLL
