My brother told me last night that he was gay. I haven’t been able to speak to him and am wondering what those in similar situations have done. I know this is the end of our brotherhood as he is separating himself from God.

What did you do in a similar situation?
 
I would respond. “Hey, thanks for letting me know. What can I do to support your life journey? I know that the Catholic church requires us to be celibate unless we’re married and that’s tough. Let me know if you want help finding resources”
 
What on earth? Don’t be so ridiculous. It only means “the end of your brotherhood” if you end it. Nothing to do with him.

At the very least, you can thank him for trusting you enough to tell you.
 
How old are you? How old is he? Why do you think this is some huge revelation that changes everything? Why do you think that being gay is “separating” oneself from God?

you love him like you loved him before you knew!
you treat him like you treated him before
don’t judge him, just pray for him.
 
How is it the end of your brotherhood if he leaves the Church?
 
He seems to have misjudged your love for him. I hope you’ll reconsider cutting him out of your life.
