orion was raised without religion because his mother was very "spiritual" in a metaphysical sense, so he was brought up reading tarot, believing in astrology, etc... but he also has a very toxic relationship with his mother and is no contact with her now, so even though he was brought up a much freer spirit he understands how family can mess you up. he wouldn't try to drag james out of the closet before he's ready, but i'm sure they'll have some very private, very heavy talks about this
