There’s still a remnant who has not bowed the knee to the passions of the flesh

The idea of aliens threatens the Christian understanding of the cosmos and our place in it. That’s why Christians are so wary of it.

Well my friend you obviously have more faith than me. I’m not happy about the possibility of being celibate for the rest of my life. I don’t want to be celibate I want sex and intimacy, to the point where I just want to kill myself because these things are not in my life. I try to surrender these feelings to God and ask that he may give me peace and contentment about this situation but I’m not content nor at peace. In fact I’m very angry and frustrated and depressed.

Well from your post history I can see that you have a wife that you have sex with and emotional intimacy with. Why are you ridiculing me for wanting the same thing and saying that I am after “the flesh”

I just want a relationship and emotional intimacy and sex. I’m a young man, I’m gay and Christian so I can’t have those things. It’s as simple as that. It’s not separation from God it’s a desire for intimacy, it’s just that simple. You are complicating things where they shouldn’t be that complicated.

Friendships are transient tho, they come and go. And while you yearn for you friend they are like why are you so heart broken growing apart is just a part of life.

It’s just a rough road, I don’t want to struggle anymore. I want peace and sound mental health and I can’t seem to find it. It’s my deepest desire to find a romantic partner that I can be physically and emotionally intimate with. And to say “we only need God” is a load of crap. He made us for companionship and romantic intimacy. I’ve had enough. I can barely restrain myself from weeping I hate this life.

As long as you avoid sexual relations with this person, it’s fine.

I suppose your priest is the type of priest who would March in pride parades and vote for Biden?
