The statement, “The God of my understanding wants me to know myself and to not feel shame or sadness about the way that I am.” So profound for me and makes me feel more comfortable about who I am and my relationship with God. Thank you Mayim and David, both, for enlightening me and providing your perspectives.

I still get the impression he is in massive denial that he is a gay man.Having sex or not doesn't change your sexuality.You can believe in G-d and forgo the rubbish man-made paradigm that really has nothing to do with G-d.

I'm part of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and I can't tell you how much I appreciate this interview. Mayim, thank you so much for providing a safe and understanding space for David to talk about his faith, identity and mental health. Just like the LGBTQIA+ faces a lot of negativity sometimes, so do people of faith, and not every interview about that is as uplifting and enlightening as this one. Thank you! I love it!

Yeah, people of faith in the U.S. are so persecuted, especially Christians. I feel ya. Christians are so put down and people are so negative about them. It makes it hard to practice your faith, huh? Because like there are so many barriers. Like sometimes…I just don’t wanna be here anymore. I think things like “If being a Christian is so wrong to the majority, then maybe I just shouldn’t exist.” Ya know what I mean?

This made my day. David is such a genuine and personable man, so happy for him. Thank you Miss B!

As an LDS person, I’m SO grateful that such a public figure is exploring this in a somewhat public way. We see people who don’t get to explore all the time in this community. Thank you- and please keep doing interviews like this!

This conversation is a MUST SEE for anyone with questions about their own sexuality and identity AND for anyone who calls themself a Christian or a follower of a religious faith that has strong (negative) opinions about anything outside of the heteronormative culture. That Mayim and David come from such different religious places but can converse with such maturity and grace for each other's differences is a refreshing example for society. I love Mayim's explanation of, "there is no psychological thought that exists without a physical component, and if you need drugs or alcohol to have sex then it indicates you aren't really feeling safe or comfortable."

I’m LDS and I’ve loved this interview. Thank you, David for sharing your experience, and thank you Mayim for asking great questions to have this much needed conversation.

I didn’t know anything about David, other than his magical voice, and now I have a crush on him because of how sweet and genuine he is 🥰 I loved this conversation!!

I was surprised at how spiritual his perspective is, which says that my understanding of this religion is that it is more about restrictions and rules than love for your fellow man so, I was heartened by the response from his Elder when he "came out". When I watched him on American Idol my first response was "He is so repressed". Now my response is , "He is so thoughtful and a very deep thinker." I love his relationship with God. He makes me want to slow down my response to life in general and connect with spirit more.

We were raised from little children with the teachings of Christ, that being loving is the most important thing... But that is often lost in the disconnect that happens with culture and dogma. Those who sat through primary being taught the basics of the gospel and really gravitated to that, are mortified by how culture is the opposite of everything Christ taught. I love when David shares his perspectives because it is very similar to my own. I'm also happy there are some leaders out there who do not traumatize the people who come out to them.

I have thought about this a lot, I have tried to come up with differences and the only thing that comes to my mind is, there are straight people who never get married, who abstain from sexual relations. Their feelings and attractions are just as real as yours. Just as those who are straight and single, there are many who have same sex attraction who also abstain who stay in the church. God still defines marriage as man and women. You can’t change gods law just because society chooses to Redefine it. Remember gods laws are eternal, mans are temporary.

@David C I think David was very fortunate in the the Elder with whom he shared his feelings about himself. That is very unusual in the Mormon Church. Bishops can be very cruel to those who don't follow the Mormon norm of "straight is the only acceptable way", and chastity is essential before marriage. Mormons are required to confess to masturbation, looking at porn and any intimate touching of a boy/girlfriend. They are punished severely for such acts. I suspect the church is going easy on David because they hope Mormon girls will love him and the alarming haemorrhage of young people, leaving the Church, will stop.

I personally think you have a very perfectionist “can’t make a mistake” perspective on things, but the truth is that Jesus died for our sins to raise us up bc He knew we’d make mistakes + fall.

I love being educated. Thank you for this open and honest heart in the form of David A. Wow. He blew me away. I got hit in the gut with this episode. I appreciate how Jonathan and yourself got to the heart of what this discussion was about. Self-acceptance and mental health go hand in hand. We weren't to talk about abuse when I was a young girl. I was told it didn't happen. Yes, that old story. As an adult I pushed every crisis down, every trauma down, every insult to my intelligence, every unkind word, every broken promise, every insult from family until the pandemic. Being in isolation for two years due to catching RSV, Influenza A and then COVID, what I call the perfect viral storm, stop me in my track's. My life changed dramatically on December 26, 2019. Right before COVID, I kept getting sick as a Mental Health Professional in the South Side of Chicago. Long story. My point is, these past two year's of life pause as I call it has forced me open. Open and God has shone a light into that void. Now, I try to practice what I used to preach. Prayer, meditation, mindfulness, so many freaking tears, long conversations with God and my opinion versus His (a nice way of saying, I've had some words for God.....). Only to learn that it's ok to break open, it's ok to shine the light in the dark space. It's ok to be real, whatever that real is to oneself. I'm still in my process, my pause so to speak. Thanks for this Podcast. I really appreciated it so much.

I truly enjoy these podcasts. Coming from the same religion as David, I am so happy his Elder was open minded enough to acknowledge what he was feeling and tell him to he wasn’t wrong. You be surprised how many leaders in the church just tell you to forget what happened, pray and move on. I believe they didn’t have the bandwidth to really understand or know how to deal with the problem presented. Great interview!

One of your best episodes every.

Beautiful episode. I appreciate bringing faith into the discussion, this was a wonderful way to do it without making it either all good or all bad. Love the bit about making mistakes. In Jewish tradition, what's called sin is all about making mistakes, trying to "hit the mark," so to speak, but missing for whatever reason; then healing from those mistakes, both internally and with others, if necessary; and moving on. PS Mayim, you look fabulous.

Mayim I just want to say thank you for being so sweet and having such a wonderful lot of guests on your channel. You are also my favorite person due to your being so down to earth and knowledgeable. Thank you again. Blessings and Love and Happy Hanuka in 2022.

I am with the same amazing man (and now married to) for 23 years. David is a beautiful and gifted man whose best parts of his life have yet to come.

Amazing. I so enjoyed this.

This was such a insightful discussion!

I love Jonathon's take on the mental health aspect of this; a belief in a higher power that "speaks through intuition". This is something I have long believed but never been able to put into words so concisely. Listen to your intuition; listen to that voice; question those things you are unsure about. Being open and honest with yourself about all aspects of life. I tend to come and go with therapy, but in my last bout, coming to terms with feelings that I have long tried to suppress was the most freeing revelation I've had. Definitely an episode I think I'll come back to, as I'm sure there's more for me to gain from another watch. Keep doing what you're doing guys x

I love your belief on the God of your understanding! I believe that Mirror that, but I didn't know how to verbalize it! Thank you!
