This is for the BGLT members of the forum. This is not a debate about homosexuality. This is a discussion. How has being BGLT effected your spirituality? Are you more or less spritual because of it? How have you been able to maintain your spirituality with churches being closed off? How do you think this will effect any after life? Tell us anything you want to about your spirituality.

Besides being a reason to convert, I can't really think of how it has affected my spirituality.

I think it has made me dig deeper than I would have if I were hetero. I think it has given me more compassion and a deeper understanding of people. I think I have done more soul searching because of it.

I think since coming to terms with my sexuality, it has made me just more aware of me, emotionally and spiritually. It makes me more compassionate towards others and what struggles they may be going through. I've had to question societal and religious norms more than the average (heterosexual) person does, just to find where I fit in in this world.

thats all the gay ppl on this forum? wow. must be more in the closet. *^-^*

i found out when i was 13... it wasnt a big deal. who cares. inside i was going through my christian phase, i was deeply influenced by my teachers and such. so it was hard for me to stop masturbating or being gay.... finally i looked into my own religion and lo and behold, it says nothing. sexuality is part of the body, and it has nothing to do with being a good person and helping people and feeling love and compassion for others and yourself and God. since its part of the body, the body dies and the soul lives on, born again into a tree or another human or whatever. so being gay is only in this life. im only in highschool, my mind is on my studies, and my art, not my sexuality. thats like, until college. i have other things to focus on. i have never had a relationship with a boy because...there arent many gay guys in my class. plus im freaked out cuz im a social phobe. ya. thats me.
