This is pretty interesting thought-examination. It also made me think about how I thought I'd handled other people's opinions. I used to think I didn't really care if they judged me, but it looks like I do after all, and now I have to reexamine my thoughts on the subject as well.
I always think I'm getting to a point that I don't care... and then I realize I really, really do. I'm starting to think that, if only because it's written in our DNA, it might be something I can only mitigate, and not entirely get rid of, and as long as I know that's what's going on it's okay.
Though I would like to care less than I do right now...
If we, as humans, can see that as abusive, how is forever separation or burning in firey pits forever not abusive? If humans can see this, and God is to us like we are to ants, then I imagine God could see this, too.I wanted to chime in on this

Wow, I had to reread this to grasp most of it. I, being a lesbian, ex-Mormon, former small town dweller, and all around likable (puts effort into being liked, to a degree) can relate to alot of your points. I won't really touch too much on religion, there is no mormon church with a gay congregation, there is a group online, but no brick and mortar that I can find. I liked being mormon, I was a convert, and it's just kinda too bad they don't like the gays, but hey at one point, they also did not like blacks because they carry the curse of god. Moving on
