A story making the rounds over the years is that Gordon H. Hinckley was gay and involved in same-sex and bi-sexual affairs in a romp house that was said to have been GBH's. The big problem with this story is that it lacks backup. It's based on whopper coming from a group of weirdo characters in Salt Lake City. Who knows if any of them are even still alive or if the can be tracked down? Now there's an explanation out there that says its setting the record straight----
"There was a gay/bi man named Charles Van Dam (perhaps spelled Van Damme), no relation to Jean Claude Van Damme (whose real last name is NOT Van Damme), who was a married "active" Mormon in the 1960s, who owned a used car lot. Charles Van Damme later appeared in two videos, both produced by Jeremiah Films (the ones who did "The God Makers' and 'The God Makers II") in which he claimed that Gordon B. Hinckley bought a "party house" for bi-sexual orgies, and Gordon and other Apostles frequented it, as did Van Damme. In 1970, Van Damme was called in by Gordon B. Hinckley and said he would be excommunicated, and Van Damme said, "You're a bigger [bleep] than I am!" Van Damme later founded the Homosexual Church of Jesus Christ, which included only gay men between the ages of 18 and 30 (and himself of course). Didn't fly. His gay bar in Denver came under FBI surveillance because it was somehow associated with the mob.
"Doug Wallace, an ex-Mormon who was exed in 1976 for ordaining a black man to the Priesthood in Vancouver, Washington, found Charles Van Damme, who was dying of AIDS in 1984, and video taped him in a three hour interview; excerpts were edited
into THE GOD MAKERS II and THE TRUTH ABOUT MORMON CHURCH PRESIDENT GORDON B. HINCKLEY. Jeremiah Films sold both for years, but then Gordon B. Hinckley got a LAWYER who threatened Jeremiah Films with a lawsuit, so Jeremiah Films stopped selling it, but rather found some obscure "Christian" organization to keep selling it, but " . . . [when GBH was] informed . . . of this, . . . THE TRUTH ABOUT MORMON CHURCH GORDON B. HINCKLEY
disappeared from the Internet.
"Jerald and Sandra Tanner published a sheet called THE TRUTH ABOUT ELDER ACCUSED and claimed that Gordon B. Hinckley was NOT "Elder Accused" (i.e. Van Damme's lover), but a close male relative of Gordon B. Hinckley was. [although] in THE GOD MAKERS II and the other video, a Black pimp and a "former prostitute" said it was 'Gordon B. Hinckley' who came to the bi-sexual house parties in question. The Tanners do
not name "Elder Accused" but . . . "[it's] a FACT "Elder Accused" was Richard Gordon Hinckley, son of Gordon B. Hinckley.
"In 1970, as an Apostle, Gordon B. Hinckley somehow was tipped off about his son and Van Damme being lovers. He called in his son, who confessed, and was "forgiven" (no Church court, although Richard was married and an RM). However, Van Damme was excommunicated. At the time (1970) people who were excommunicated had their names printed in THE IMPROVEMENT ERA magazine, with the "reason" why they were exed! Needless to say, Mormons stopped buying cars from Charles Van Damme. He lost his wife, his family, and moved to Denver and opened a gay bar. The reason why GBH sent millions of dollars and millions of man hours in Mormon "volunteers" to Proposition 8 in California, and others states, is because he believed that his son was "seduced" by a gay man as a teen, which is why he became bisexual. During this time, Richard G. Hinckley was a student at Stanford
University in Palo Alto, California (later served there as a
missionary). But, during the Summers, he and his wife would return to Salt Lake City, and he would work as a used car salesman, at Van Damme's lot. Richard G. Hinckley later became a bishop, a stake president and a member of the First Quorum of Seventy. He was also a Mission President, twice. One time over the Salt Lake Temple Square Mission. . . . [He may now be] a Temple President.
"Robert and Rosemary Brown, the Mesa Arizona researchers behind THEY LIE IN WAIT TO DECEIVE series, did some research in the Salt Lake Country Clerk's Office, and discovered the house in question was NOT owned by Gordon B. Hinckley, but by Charles Van Damme, at the time in question, and was never owned by any Hinckley. Had YOU or your son or grandson done what Richard G. Hinckley did, they would have been excommunicated. Richard was an RM, and married, when all this took place. But, when you're an Apostle's son, you get "special handling." Charles Van Damme died of AIDS in 1984."
Is this any way believable? It's shown up once and a while here on RfM but that doesn't necessarily make it true.
