Hi FMG,
It was only a couple years ago that I came on these forums and made myself known as a gay man. I had never mentioned it to anyone ever before. I know how you feel. At the time I never dreamed that I would be totally "out" within a couple years. The journey has been worth it for me. The freedom and peace that comes from being honestly who God created me to be is liberting. Too often I see the choice set forth to be gay OR Christian. It is a choice a I refuse to accept. There is no problem with gay AND Christian. The grace of God the flows from the cross comes to gay and straight. If some people can't accept that, then they need education and enlightenment. I have been associated with two church denominations, Catholic and Lutheran (LCMS). The Catholics have been warm and accepting. The Lutherans less so. (but the LCMS is the conservative right-wing of Lutheranism. The ELCA is generally quite gay affirming.) There are a lot of gay affirming congregations out there. The websites listed earlier are a great place to start. Please join in our discussions. It is a warm group of people here. I hope you feel right at home. Tu Amigo, Pablo
