Saying homosexuality is a sin, is like saying the earth is flat. You may think you can prove it from the Bible, but in reality it isn't true and only serves to make you look silly. - Floyd Poenitz, 7/11/2020

Just in case anyone needs to hear it in plain terms:

If you came out/got outed to your religious family and were met with any sort of dismissive, violent, manipulative, or harsh reaction: that is SPIRITUAL AND EMOTIONAL ABUSE.

If these are people you love and had a good relationship with before you came out/were outed, they are still capable of emotional/spiritual abuse. GOOD PEOPLE DO SHITTY THINGS EVERY DAY.

If your relationships with your church/religious people were damaged and you feel a sense of loss: You had something TAKEN from you. You did not do anything to deserve this loss.

It is OKAY to be queer and still have a relationship with god/a higher being/a religious community.

You are valid, and not one goddamn thing about you is "wrong." PERIOD

It is okay to be PROUD of who you are, no matter how quietly.

You are LOVED.

Oggi condivido con voi il primo episodio del progetto "Storie di Speranza" a cui ho partecipato. È la prima volta che mi approccio alla post-produzione audio per il video, ma nel mio piccolo ho cercato di rendere ancora più bello questo lavoro. "Storie di Speranza” è un ciclo di video proposti dal Progetto Giovani Cristiani LGBT e racconta storie di fede e omosessualità: racconta il credere, supportati anche da segni concreti, che essere giovani credenti e LGBTQ* non sia una contraddizione ma un cammino da compiere assieme. A cadenza settimanale, a partire da martedì 1° dicembre 2020, verranno presentati sul canale YouTube del Progetto Giovani Cristiani LGBT otto video: si parte da Genova con la storia di Luca, nato in una famiglia lontana dalla religione e di come ha scoperto Dio grazie alla storia d’amore vissuta con Claudio. Video: Edoardo "Edoz" Zenone

reminder that God does not hate you if you fall in love with somebody of your same gender! God hates liars, God hates hypocrites, God hates dirty politicians. But people who love, regardless of orientation or gender? He loves you the same as all of his other children. Be true to yourself, be true to God. Don’t try to change this beautiful part that God has put inside of you.

I grew up really religious and my faith is something that really  got to me when it came to living authentically and the decision to transition. Can you transition and keep your faith?If this is something you are struggling with then I hope this explanation of my faith now vs. then can be of help!

How hard it is to be still and know that You are God! How easy it is to forget that You can and are doing a new work in me! But how amazing it is to remember your forgiving love!

We have always been taught that Christianity and anything other than traditional heterosexuality cannot co-exist. That dilemma can be devastating to anyone going through the torment of reconciling their sexual orientation or gender identity with their religious identity.

I believe LGBTIQ individuals are wholly loved and accepted as they are by our Creator. This is not a message of mere convenience; it is a message well-studied in the original language of the Bible (Hebrew and Greek) and consistent with scripture.

Importance of Gay Subtext

Ok so I know that lgbt subtext is often used when writers are to scared to put in actual lgbt relationships, or for queer baiting. But it is still important. It’s important to every scared lgbt kid like me who grew up in a homophobic environment and had to pretend that they loved FRIED GREEN TOMATOES cause of the TOTALLY PLATONIC friendship between Idgie and Ruth, whose relationship being relegated to subtext in the movie allowed me to read the book in front of my parent with no questions asked. Subtext is important because it lets me sit down with my homophobic friends and family and watch the same show in a different light. While they were all in the theatre for Beauty and the Beast, I was suppressing a smile whenever Lefou checked out Gaston behind my straight friends backs.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that subtext can help us to cope in an enforced closet.
