Jamaica Gleaner News: "Church leaders have failed to adequately counsel and interface with homosexuals in their congregations because they fear unpopularity could trigger a membership exodus, gays have claimed.
Marcus Bryan, a member of Sunshine Cathedral Jamaica, a church formed for homosexuals, charged that most clerics were wary of guilt by association and, therefore, refrained from seriously addressing the issue.
'There are ministers who offer one-on-one counselling and other support, but will have to be careful, as it will result in fallout in their congregations,' Bryan told The Gleaner."
