As a gay in a predominantly Christian nation, religion made me much worse. That's why I quit. If God is real, then he doesn't need to communicate with you by writing in a book and giving it to a teensy tiny minority of people on earth.
I also get very uncomfortable with the Christian obsession with Christ's death. You aren't learning from his lessons or his sermons.. you are worshiping his death.
I get that salvation was dependent on his death... and most just focus on salvation... but I've seen way too much hand wringing about the nails and the cross and the suffering...
You know what Jesus would say while you're crying over his crucifixion? There are people suffering right here and yet you ignore it. I do not know you!
What about non-homophopic churches?
What about unicorns ?
Just kidding. But you know, since it's written in the Bible that homosexuality is an abomination, I think it's difficult to have a non-homophobic church. They can respect homosexuals, they might not want to burn them, they often consider them as abnormal, or a negative thing they tolerate. I studied in a catholic school, medium school and high school, and now in a catholic college; they're not the worst homophobic people on earth, they show tolerance, but you feel that they're worried by it
