gay christian
Just heard something unusual that may put a light on things. A gay friend told me that being a gay christian is like marrying an abusive boyfriend. You may like him and like the idea of being married and having a family but actually marrying an abusive boyfriend that is always telling you how wrong and sinful you are. That christians/abusive boyfriends tell you who you can and cannot love, accept, hang out with, help, etc. That christians/abusive boyfriends constantly criticise, vilified, try to control and regulate what feel natural or good to you, that it tries to change you on a basic level into something *they* feel you should be. And to be a gay christian is to buy into that myth you are wrong.
I was taught that god and jesus were about love, acceptance, and grace. Its hard to think that many people don't view it that way. That's why I like the current pope. He says its wrong to have an abortion or be gay BUT he loves you anyways and wants the best for you. He doesn't say "change or die in hell fire damnation." He says we are all human and a little fucked up, but here, let me help you.
