Contrast that with my family who are devout liberal Episcopalians who when I came out were like "the organist is gay, single and really nice".

I wouldn't call that a contrast honestly. Sounds like a very similar attitude.

My folks didn't need gay kids to accept homosexuality because their church did so. That's the difference.

Yeah. Fair I guess. We don't actually know the other person's parents started out hateful. Perhaps just ignorant. I guess both angles are assumptions.
