    It is so sad that we must live in fear because of our difference.
    Anyway my young brother, you are very young and not at an age where you can stand for your due rights and able to defend yourself, so like many of us have done before. Keep your difference a secret and be discrete until you are at an age where you can stand for yourself. I know the nightmare you are in. many of us have passed through it. I have been bashed twice and even gang raped once but drunken bastards who wanted to get the homosexuality out of me. Strange way to do it, isn't it? Anyway be cautious. In the meantime I hope you'll find a support group for young homos to help you in these difficult time. Don't be ashamed of who you are neither of the fact that you are scared. This is normal, many of us have been through this ordeal and it is only at adulthood that we have been able to fight back and overcome the rough time. Take good care of yourself.

    Yeah sounds like a typical Christian school. That's your problem, it's hard for me to explain in a few paragraphs, but basically there is no 'god'.. and even if there was a 'god' well they would have created you the way you are, so it's the morons who pose as 'christians' that are the true evil ones.

    Never feel like your weird, you know what love is, you have love in your heart. This love is the truth and the answer to everything, not some idiots from a 'christian' school.


    peace and love

    You probably feel like this about being gay because you're in a Christian school and many Christians don't accept that. I would just tell people really close to you and make sure that nobody you don't want to know don't know. Remember, your sexuality is nobody else's business but yourself. I learned that the hard way =[

    i dont advise anyone to come out in high school especially a religous school and if you've been threatened well that would be a good reason to stay in the closet for a while...i know it sucks to be in there...i was a closet bisexual all through high school because i saw what happened to people who came out...no real violence just a lot of taunting and pranks dont on them...

    but college is different there you'll meet a lot of glbt people, smart ones too ;) and there are organizations you can join for support on most campuses. anyway im still in the closet about being transgendered to everyone except my parents and old friends...dont know if ill ever come out...

    im not really afraid about ppl knowing im bi...but "gay man in a womans body" its cliche, sounds like im making a joke, like its not possible...sounds like an invitation for a** rape. guess im telling you that so you know it could be worse....

    you arent a freak btw

    Jesus says nothing about same-sex behavior.

    The Jewish prophets are silent about homosexuality.

    Only six or seven of the Bible's one million verses refer to same-sex behavior in any way; none of these verses refer to homosexuality as it's understood today

    The bible is a book about God, not on sexuality.

    Leviticus 18:6 reads: "You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female. It is an abomination." Leviticus 20:13: "A man who sleeps with another man is an abomination and should be executed."

    Just below the surface of these words is the deeper truth about God -- and it has nothing to do with sex. Leviticus is a holiness code (list of behaviors that people of faith find offensive in a certain place and time. In this case, the code was written for priests only, and its primary intent was to set the priests of Israel over and against priests of other cultures) written 3,000 years ago. This code also includes prohibitions against round haircuts, tattoos, working on the Sabbath, wearing garments of mixed fabrics, eating pork or shellfish, getting your fortune told, and even playing with the skin of a pig. (There goes football!!!)

    Jesus and Paul both said the holiness code in Leviticus does not pertain to Christian believers. Nevertheless, there are still people who pull the two verses about men sleeping together from this ancient holiness code to say that the Bible SEEMES to condemn homosexuality.

    The Bible also says that sex with a prostitute is acceptable for the husband but not for the wife. Polygamy's acceptable, as is a king's having many concubines. (Solomon, the wisest king of all, had 1,000 concubines.) Slavery and sex with slaves, marriage of girls aged 11-13, and treatment of women as property are all accepted practices in the Scriptures. There are strict prohibitions against interracial marriage, birth control, discussing or even naming a sexual organ, and seeing one's parents nude.

    The Bible has been misused to defend bloody crusades and tragic inquisitions; to support slavery, apartheid, and segregation; to persecute Jews and other non-Christian people of faith; to support Hitler's Third Reich and the Holocaust; to oppose medical science; to condemn interracial marriage; to execute women as witches; and to support the Ku Klux Klan. Shakespeare said it this way: "Even the devil can cite Scripture for his purpose."

    There might be someone around you who is also gay, but too scared to come out. There might also be people your age that haven't realized it yet.
    You're not a freak. There's no normal either. Normality doesn't exist. Everyone is different and homosexuality is not abnormal. It's just a preference for a gender. If there weren't meant to be people with that kind of preference why is there such people? I consider it normal. People around me consider it normal. I have friends who are gay and bi, and they talk about it freely. But we're not particularly religious either. Well, most of us, some of us I think are, but we all accept it.
    And there's lot of places in the world where gay hate is almost unthinkable, where it is unthinkable. Perhaps you should consider moving away when you can.
    Do you have anyone that you can trust around you to talk about this? A friend, family, a school councilor? You need support. It's human to need that. If there's not, look for a discussion forum on the net. That could help.
    And fear is not unexpected.

    I know, I've began to wonder were is the love...

    Because of people like Fred phelps, their all just soul sucking brain zombies who can't think for themselves. I'm terrified I'll end up like Matthew Shepard *Shudders*. You don't turn gay by the way your born LGBT! Ignorant morons will never realize that because they can't think past the bible which was written and re-written by ignorant men.

    Edit: By the way if a theropist could help a person not be gay then could one help someone not be straight? Ex-straight groups?!? XD
