Frank Schaeffer:

If professional Christians earn their living and derive their meaning from their roles as religious leaders -- not to mention enjoy their power over other people -- then they have all the more motivation to deny their doubts (and their bodies and perhaps their sexual orientation) and to call for others to conform to their beliefs.  But note I say "conform to their beliefs" rather than conform to their example.
