it makes me proud to say "i'm not gay"....but in the end I think I'm gay and will always be. and being gay means thinking that religious is not proven and is possibly wrong.

Yes, there is a struggle involved, but being true to yourself is the only path to freedom and happiness that I have discovered along the way. Take it sooner, rather than later.

On being gay - come out of the closet and accept who you are 'cause it's not going to change. Once you do that, you'll be able to develop a healthy loving romantic relationship with another person. Then you'll find out what it is to be happy.
On the religion thing - yes many religious teachings about gays are just wrong. Just as religious teachings defending slavery were wrong and religious objections to interracial marriage were wrong. Oh yeah, I don't think those teachings against eating pork or shellfish make much sense in the modern era either.

The answer about not lying says most of what I would say, but I would add 2 other points: firstly, can you be 'happy' if you are not honest with the people around you? and, secondly, being 'with someone' is not the only way to be happy - I have been single for years and am much braver and more secure in who I am then when I have been in relationships. The only one who can decide what makes you happy is you, by trying whatever you have the courage to try, and judging the results. Good luck.

look, you can be gay and still be religious. my best friends girlfriend is gay and her father is a pastor. she grew up in a church.
you need to accept yourself. i'm not a religious person, but i think that if there is a god, he'd rather you be gay and a good person, then straight and an ***.
why would it make you proud to lie about who you are? if you're gay and you really think you are, then how can you say you are not and love yourself? isnt there something in the bible that says "thou shall not lie"? if not there should be. how can you worship someone if you cannot even accept yourself for who you truely are?

If you "think" you are then you probably are. Being gay doesn't have anything to do with religion. I know, the bible thumpers and religious & Bureaucratic zealots will disagree, but screw them! If you wanna be gay be gay and let them argue about it.

i have seen some of your questions and answers and i think the first step to accepting your sexual orientation would be to stop taking your anger at your own situation out on others. and i agree that your religious beliefs are not proven and most probably wrong.

You just can't make up your mind, can you?
I guess this is just another symptom of your previously self-admitted schizophrenia, huh?
Yes, you're starting to get the picture a bit more clearly. You can't change your sexuality, you can only control your behaviors. If you're right handed and you suddenly loose the ability to use your right hand, you're still naturally right handed but using your left.
You haven't changed your handed-ness, only the behavior.

you can't change who you innately are. and you can be both homosexual and religious. there are many bigots who insist that you can be "cured" but that's nothing but brain-washing. you obviously have a lot of serious issues with dealing with who you really are.....is this why you've lashed out at the LGBT community so much? because you're ashamed of who you are? get some counseling, and quit taking it out on others.

shelly: you are a total snot, if you have such a problem with homosexuals why not answer other questions, it isnt like there arent TONS of them. If insulting people gets you off then you might want to worry a little more about you going to hell...God doesnt like rude *** f@#kers either!!!

Sure you do, and then the meds kick in, you deny ever saying anything of the sort....
Seek help and stay on your medication.
No "we" don't have a problem, you continue to inflict your problems onto everyone else. Seek help now!!
