Local Pastor Denounces LGBTQ+ Rights, Secretly Runs 'Gaymer's Guild' Support Group

January 1, 2025
In a fiery sermon last Sunday, Pastor Thaddeus Bile denounced the "sinful lifestyles" of the LGBTQ+ community, calling for a return to "traditional values" and quoting Leviticus (because, let's be honest, who *doesn't* love a good Leviticus quote?). He concluded his sermon with a passionate plea for prayer and a thinly veiled threat involving brimstone and interpretive dance. However, sources close to the church (who wish to remain anonymous, lest they be subjected to Bile's surprisingly vigorous interpretive dance routines) reveal a different side to the good pastor.

Unbeknownst to his flock, Pastor Bile secretly runs a weekly support group called the "Gaymer's Guild" in the church basement. This group, comprised entirely of LGBTQ+ individuals and allies, provides a safe space for sharing experiences, playing video games (mostly RPGs with surprisingly complex character creation options), and enjoying artisanal cupcakes baked by a surprisingly talented member known only as 'Rainbow Sprinkle'.

"He's a real charmer when he's not quoting scripture to justify his homophobia," confided one attendee, who identified only as 'Pixelated Pixie'. "He's surprisingly good at Dragon Age. Though his character's backstory involves a lot of repressed emotion... which is... interesting."

When confronted with these allegations, Pastor Bile responded with a statement that was simultaneously confusing, defensive, and weirdly inspirational: "The Lord works in mysterious ways. And sometimes those ways involve high-level dungeon crawls and the surprisingly therapeutic power of crafting potions."
