Am I a bad Christian?
I am a 13-year-old transgender man who is also bisexual. I have been going to a catholic school since I was a toddler. I knew I was young since I was gay since I was a little kid and just recently found out I was trans. I have been faced with a lot of homophobia since I was little but always ignored it until recently. I have been told that being gay is a sin. That being trans will put me to *** and a bunch of other religious homophobic and transphobic stuff. Because of the stuff people tell me I have grown a slight hatred to the Christian religion. But I also don't want to go to ***. I have tried praying to God to be straight and cis but nothing works so can someone tell me if I'm being a bad person or not?
You are definitely not a bad person for figuring out who you really are . And ppl who use the Bible as an "excuse" for being homophobic and transphobic or saying that this is a sin ARE NOT RIGHT
@communicativeApple9560 thank you so much
@RUMBUM I don't believe in heaven or ***, but I can tell you for sure you are not a bad person. By being who you are, you are not hurting anyone. You can be kind, generous and caring whatever your orientation or gender identity is. That's what makes a good person: treating others with respect. As long as you do that, there is nothing bad about you.
Some people will use your religious upbringing and fear of *** to make you feel guilty, but you are doing nothing wrong. Stay strong!
@Aayla thank you for being respectful about it and not disrespecting the whole religion as a whole. Also thank you for saying that
