A man who has written about and advocated using religion to stop same-sex attraction was discovered to be using the gay hookup app Grindr.

Christian Post blogger Matt Moore was first spotted on Grindr by Huffington Postblogger Zinnia Jones, who received a tip from a reader of her page at Freethought Blogs. Moore eventually confirmed that it was his profile.

"I am wrong in having been on Grindr," he said to Jones. "I haven't changed my views on homosexuality, the Bible, etc. Creating a Grindr profile and talking to guys on it was major disobedience on my part ... disobedience to Christ."

Moore added that he "won't be on Grindr again ... ever."
