In 1973 the American Psychiatric Association made the decision to delete homosexuality as a diagnostic category from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM). This decision was not based on new scientific evidence, but the result of political pressure from activists in and out of the Association, particularly from the newly formed National Gay Task Force; in 1973, the four founding leaders of the Task Force included Dr. Howard Brown, Dr. Bruce Voeller, Father Robert Carter and Dr. Frank Kameny.

One Catholic and one atheist other two I could not find information on their rebellious status but all were homosexuals.

Brown
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Howard_Junior_Brown

In late 1967, Brown received a warning that an investigative reporter planned to expose homosexuals in the administration of Mayor John Lindsay and resigned rather than be forced out. The article never ran and Brown stayed closeted.

Voeller
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Voeller

When he was at school, he was assured by a school counselor that he was not homosexual, even though he had felt such feelings very early on
He came out at the age of 29,[1] and divorced from his wife in 1971.

Kameny
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frank_Kameny

In 1957, Kameny was dismissed from his position as an astronomer in the U.S. Army's Army Map Service in Washington, D.C. because of his homosexuality,[3]
at age 17 he told his parents that he was an atheist.

Carter, Society of Jesus (Jesuits)(SJ)

Carter was gay, and became one of the first Roman Catholic priests in the United States to acknowledge this publicly

The idea of self identification as “homosexual” is problematic in and of itself
Sexuality is fluid and to treat it in such a... ontological way, is just off putting

Rhamiel, you are hereby ordered to report for reprogramming, as you seem to have "forgotten" the Orthodox Secular article of faith which tells us that sexuality is completely unchangeable (indeed, one sacred hymn of Lady Gaga tells us that they are "born [that] way") but that gender is completely flexible and changeable via holy hormones and sacred scalpel.

Why, just last week a sign on the bus reminded me that gay conversion therapy is not just undesirable where I live, it is actually illegal.
