If you're a rational thinker, and not a hypocrite you do not belong to any religious or cult group that you do not have a common interest.  Being 'GAY' isn't comparable to  belonging to a religious group, going to a meeting for  a specific reasons unrelated to a  political party doctrine should not compromise you.   Religious groups 'cults' are asking you to accept their dogma, it's 'blind faith'  disagreeing is not a choice in religion.
