- If you had told us in the early 1970s that ten years later, perhaps the most vital segment of the gay movement would be gay churches and religious groups, you would not have been believed. We took for granted that the churches were a major source of anti-gay ideology and were therefore to be opposed implacably. As we waxed, they would wane.
