Is Mark Vernon gay? I seem to recall him saying he is in one of his dialogues with
Rupert Sheldrake.

Yes, he is gay, he says this in the Sheldrake-Vernon dialogue "The Hidden God of Atheism" after Rupert Sheldrake has spoken about arranged marriages in India. If one can find a link for this, that he is gay could be mentioned in the article.

The dialogue can be accessed
here. He mentions it at about 27:20. But if we have to search for this fact, is it really wise to add it to this article? If Vernon himself never mentions it much himself, it looks a bit like
outing? Or at least it's not really a defining attribute for Vernon. For instance, he does not mention it on
his own website? So I'm really not sure.
