Surely the loving gentle Jesus who preached only love wasn't the one to create such a hellish teaching, was he?

Since Christianity hates on gays so much, I am curious what organized religions are accepting. I believe in the judeo-christian and islamic God (They are all one, if you were not aware). I'm gay. I know God created me this way and that how HE wants me to be. If you feel otherwise, don't waste your time answering since I can care less.

But I would like to find an accepting religion. Are there any? How about any christian denominations.

I know the answers I'm probably going to get, so if I can state the most obvious one just to get it out of the way, I know that Jesus is seen as the Son of God and is called God's only begotten Son. But why say that then turn around and call all of us that are saved through the submission of baptism the Children of God? Is it implying that there's an inheritance difference like in the O.T. when the eldest child gets the biggest portion of the Father's fortune after he dies? And since this particular father will NEVER die, what is the difference other than the Bible saying that Jesus is his only begotten son or the Son of God with the spiffy capital "s"?

Everything works to the good for those that love God. It sucks
the way your people came to the U.S. But God has brought all
the peoples of the World together here for a reason. And now
you have opportunities like you wouldn't have had.
Blacks have cause to be angry. But you got to channel that
angry energy into something positive. Because all that hatefulness
and self-destructiveness ain't gettin' it!
Black men and women got to stop taking it out on each other.
Slowly but surely. We in the United States are learning, that
folks is folks.

The Bible shows that Satan makes himself appear as "an angel of light". In other words, he is able to make things appear true and pure, whereas they are really false and demonic. (2 Corinthians 11:14, 15) His ministers teach lies about God. Like these for example:
The Lie: Hell is a place of eternall fiery torment.
The truth: God does not over-punish the wicked. The wages sin pays is death, not life in eternal torment. (Romans 6:7, 23; Genesis 3:19). He wouldn't torment someone for eternity for sins they commited while on earth for around 70 years. They simply die and are no longer in existence (Ecclesiastes 9:5, 10)
The Lie: (when a child dies) God picks the prettiest flowers to be with him in heaven.
The truth: God does not take children from their parents. All humans are sinners and thus all humans are under a death sentence, even children (Romans 5:12). Sometimes, the death of a child is accidental or due to the faulty ways of mankind, such as murder(Ecclesiastes 8:9; 9:11)

Why are so many people down and talking about how horrible things are when we're living at the best moment in time to be human!? Why all the pessimism?

I'm kinda thinking it has to do with effort to get to know the One you've started to believe in maybe? and just expecting Him to do all the work in the relationship & when it doesn't work out that way you start to doubt? what about someone who tries reading Word a little, says they believe, then after a month, says not sure anymore? back & forth several times yet prays & says, "God, please show me...make me feel like doing it Your way"?

You know they say hell can get pretty hot. Im sure it's crowded. I hear its very loud also with all the screams and hollering for dear mercy. Its real easy to get there just deny God, your soul, and basically what seperates you from brutish animals and you'll be fine. Hey non-christians, and fake-christians ,
Good Job. Hell needs a few good men. .

Why does no one, other than catholics, get the stigmata?
(for those of you who don't know, Stigmata is when someone shows the "wounds of christ" by having thier palms bleed (even though it's been shown definitively that no one was ever crucified by the palms, the flesh would simply rip free) or having thier heads bleed (the wounds of the crown of thorns)
So, why do only catholics get these "wounds"? Wouldn't all denominations get them?

Of course, the fact is this is another example of Pious Fraud. Even the great Padre Pio was a notorious fraud, but that did'nt stop the catholic church from making him a saint huh? After all, that's what brings in the saps right? And when the sheep crowd the pews, the collection plate is full.
Beginning to see the reason yet?
