My name is Ryan(I just felt like reversing the two letters for my screename because I couldn't think of anything). I'm a 20 yr. old Catholic and find much of the Soulforce resources to be helpful. I'm still unsure about the Catholic stance that the gay community must abstain and be celibate. It's very understandable where they are coming from. However, it just bothers me as to why our Loving God would give us these normal, human, sexual attractions and feelings and then what am I supposed to do to reject it? I have found this link from exploring the links Soulforce has provided.

I actually found that resource from the Epistle magazine, which I also have found to be very resourceful.
It's been quite a long time since I have not been at mental peace with accepting who I am and moving on in my life. Thank you for anyone who reads and responds!
