I'm particularly interested in folks who follow the religions that are based on Abraham: Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. And I'm really interested in hearing from Roman Catholics.

I'm starting to think I might be asexual (not aromantic though) and I'm a Christian.

Small world, I'm ace and Christian! I also have yet to come out to my family, but my Christian friends are accepting so far. Best of luck to you <3

I was Christian for most of my life, I'm now non-religious, and want to tell you that Christianity is one of the least accepting religions of LGBTQ+ people from what I know. My mum and dad are convinced that God said being LGBTQ+ is wrong, and so is ever other Christian I've met. They believe the Bible has not been edited at all, and it's all true, even though many people have put in their thoughts. I don't believe that God Himself would spread hate against people he created. I advise not to listen to people like this, if you follow this religion or are thinking of doing so.

Thank you! God said so many times that he loves all of his children, so when people say he'll banish them to hell, they're wrong. Also, in the original translation of the bible he actually says no grown men should be sleeping with boys. That's him saying pedophilia is bad, not homosexuality

I'm Trans (ftm) and gay. I am also Jewish. I attend synagogue twice a week. My rabbi is aware of me liking men and is okay with it. Some people at my synagogue are rude but I bush it off. God made everyone in their eye, so I believe God loves everyone regardless of gender race background ECT.

Good on you for being open about this it takes courage which you definitely have (also your rabbi seems cool)
