...at least until you think this through. I'm almost wishing someone would out me at church, though, so we could start getting proper communication flowing. I "confessed my sin" of lusting after boys to one of the most mature christian men I have ever met. It has taken five years of enduring church disipline to get back to where he can trust me, and it is still something we can't talk about openly - and I consider myself very lucky/blessed. You can read my story below. I am still not "out", but lots of folks have heard the rumors. Funny thing is, now that the pastor accepts me again, they do too. I guess they will just "forget" what they once "knew". One thing I have learned through this: Nobody is as mature a christian as they say they are. I don't want to discourage you, just a reminder that most people are really reactionary about the BL issue. I will continue to come here for support and objectivity. Nate |
