Cathedral of Hope
15 November 2004Michael Piazza, the pastor of the world's largest gay church, Cathedral of Hope, has resigned from his post in order to lead a social justice activist group. Piazza's desire to devote himself to activist was reinforced by the anti-gay marriage amendments ratified by 11 states, as well as the growing number of civilians killed in Iraq and the lack of health care and education for America's poor. "'As a gay person who has been in lovewith the same man for 24 years, I am sick and tired of my relationship being used as a threat to turn out right-wing voters,'" Mr. Piazza wrote in his letter of resignation. "'The fight for justice cannot wait.'"
