It's different when you're meant to be straight and try to deny that.

I believe I've said this, in the end your sexual desires don't matter. You could be straight but if God has planned for you to marry a man, you're going to succumb to it. I'm considerably lesbian. I'm very attracted to women (though I'd rather not be attracted to anyone) but I have a boyfriend who I have my heart set on marrying. He's the lone male I've ever been attracted too, physically and personality wise.

Surprisingly, I don't feel any guilt when I decide in my head, "She's kinda cute." Shocking. I don't feel any guilt over homosexual attraction. Which is strange, since I feel guilt over the ittiest, bittiest thing otherwise.

Yeah I know what you mean. I have done the same thing with lieing. I can lie and really not feel bad.

You might not be as sensitive, because I feel bad over a tiny white lie. Hence why I can be horribly honest and my friends won't take me shopping anymore because they don't like how I can say "No, that makes you look fat" without flinching. But that's another story.

I however, am sensitive. I always have been.

Explain how that guilt didn't exist back when I was convinced that homosexuality was sin? The only thing I felt was afraid because I didn't want to be shunned by my old church which didn't allow homosexuals to join their congregation.

You want it more than anything else it seems. I tried to warn you but some prejudeces can not be overcome.

Evidently I don't, seeing as my desire for someone I truly love is still stronger than my attraction to other women.

If I had an anecdote to be trusted in, this would be it. Why on earth would I "want it more than anything" but then not live up to it. Like I said. Attraction doesn't matter. Love does. And God is the one who plans your true husband or wife. Trying to question God's plan because of what attraction you THINK you are, or what attraction you THINK is wrong is trying to step all over God's plan.

I would but i'm sorry I don't have to repent for anything
Everyone has SOMETHING to repent for darling. Homosexuality just isn't it.

EDIT: Hey! You've commited your life to Christ? Has it been like that for a while and I'm just slow?

No, I just reconverted a few days ago.

:)

Welcome back brother! :hug: Is it possible to change your username? I'll bet it'll still confuse some people. Almost got me until I saw the "gay and Christian" part and I'm like "Wait, what?"

No about the whole gay and christian thing.

Notice how I never said anything about it being right or wrong? Not once in my post did I ever say "homosexuality is right" or "homosexuality is wrong". Everything in it was just obvious observations.

The argument "Jesus didn't mention it" is used often by people advocating for homosexuality.
