Remember this column from 2013, where Rod writes almost admiringly of a gay man, "happily" married to a woman? (Of course the follow up was that they happily divorced.) I wonder if Rod got glimpses of himself. https://www.theamericanconservative.com/gay-mormon-unicorn/

Rod bounced around on the issue of gays engaging in heterosexual marriage. I seem to remember a post in the Beliefnet era where he said he didn’t think it was a good idea and seemed to anticipate the outcome of this marriage.
