I was ordained in this religion with no dogma to offer a world desperate for answers; by tradition to be called the Reverend in a world irreverent about moral ascendancy; to stand for a people of my sexual orientation met with intolerance and violence in the world; to be present as a person of color in a majority-white denomination; to represent a liberal faith in a country so Catholic that one can be jailed for “offending religious feelings". So help me God.
