Oprah Grapples with Gift of Gay

Oprah Grapples with Gift of GayWatch Oprah's expression as a minister tells her, "Being gay is a gift from God."

Is she grappling with the idea itself, who's saying it, or the notion that a black mama somewhere named her boy "Sedrick"? Sedrick, who dialed into the show via Skype, merely blinks as Oprah's preachermen guests declare the giftiness of his gayhood. And then he says he has a "renewed vision." Presumably from the tears distributed over his cornea by the blinking.
