#and having him choose to become reinvested with the religion that gave him so much trauma would definitely be a slap in the face

I really hope that Tim understands how much of a disservice it would be if he decides to make Eddie's arc about going full Catholic instead of realizing his Catholic upbringing suppressed his sexuality and eventually coming out.
Because if he decided to go that route, what exactly would that show?
Like "Oh, the reason Eddie couldn't maintain a steady relationship with women was because he wasn't religious enough. And now that he is, that won't be an issue anymore!"
That literally makes no sense from a narrative standpoint and it definitely sends a certain message from a realistic standpoint.
