Question Feedback needed

I know many are familiar with E. Lynn Harris and his books. I have recently learned from the AKA site that he has another published work and I understand that much like the others, it is excellent reading material. I also learned from "onesavvydiva" that Harris is a member of a most distinguished fraternity; Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.

Harris' works deal with relationships - - - heterosexual, homosexual, and friendships. From reading Brother Harris' books I have gained an understanding of life styles and experiences that are very different from mine. While I certainly don't want to imply that Brother Harris' (if in fact he is a brother) books mirror his life styles, I can't help but be reminded of the vivid life of his characters. I know of several gay brothers in the frat and they are equally respected. Occasionally, I am made aware of individuals seeking membership that may be gay. Some brothers make a major issue of this while the brothers that are gay say nothing. I don't understand and can't make up my mind how I feel about inviting someone into the frat that may admit he is gay or someone that is suspected to be gay. Please provide me with feedback.
