1 /5 Ben Ward: This church told me and my family that they didn’t respect me, didn’t want me, and didn’t believe that I deserved the rights that everyone else has. They decided to take a dark and vicious route and leave their fellow “siblings of God” behind in the dust due to discrimination and bigotry. In a place I used to be comfortable in, it’s very disgusting to know that they have hatred in their hearts. Disappointed but not surprised
