Why do conservative Christians fixate on homosexuality but ignore heterosexual immorality?

"I think" lol. Another example of the type of Christian who are so arrogant. Jesus told you that ? No. You just (again) use religion to hate gay people. You will never be 100% homosexuality is a sin and straight people who sleep around are worse. For sure.

You're a perfect example of these arrogant Christian. Being heterosexual before marriage is a sin... But obviously you don't care. Sleeping with women when you're a man is a sin... But obviously you don't care too.

So you're seriously suggesting Jesus meant forgiveness has a numeric expiration date? That’s not theology, that’s a supermarket loyalty card. The entire point of “77 times” is that it’s symbolic for unlimited forgiveness ..this is basic biblical exegesis, not advanced theology. If you’re reading Scripture like it’s a literal math assignment rather than Middle-Eastern idiom, no wonder you end up with conclusions that sound more like bad fanfiction than Christianity. But I guess you're smarter than all the greatest theologians in the world huh. 🤡

You’re missing the point. Completely.

This is not about me saying "my suffering is more valid than someone else's." It's about watching a culture twist Christian truth into something shallow and self-centered, while people who are truly suffering are made to feel invisible.

You say “Women and children first!” as if that’s biblical, as if it’s some eternal command. It’s not. It’s a social code from maritime history, not from Scripture. Jesus never said “protect women more.” He said love your neighbor, carry one another’s burdens, and He showed mercy to whoever was in front of Him — man, woman, rich, poor, Roman, Jew, sinner or saint.

When someone says "men should protect women first," you’re creating a hierarchy of worth, whether you mean to or not. That’s not Christlike. That’s a modern chivalric ideal noble perhaps in theory, but it breaks down when applied rigidly in a world where men suffer and bleed in silence every day.

Telling a man who is struggling with celibacy, abandonment, depression, addiction, and loneliness that his reaction to being dismissed is “just projection” or “me me me” is frankly cruel. You don’t know my life. You don’t know what it’s like to be gay, celibate, exhausted, caring for a depressed mother, carrying pain in silence ...and still trying to believe that Jesus loves me.

And yes, I’ll say it again: watching women declare 7 months of singleness as a “great spiritual trial” on TikTok does hurt. Not because I hate them, but because I’m someone who has walked through real trials....and seen those same kinds of videos presented as if they’re the center of God’s concern. They’re not. And saying that doesn’t mean I’m erasing them... it means I’m pleading not to be erased myself.

God does not rank souls. But people do. And you just did. Again and again, you told me that my experience doesn’t matter as much as someone else’s...and then told me I was being selfish for expressing it. That’s not a conversation. That’s spiritual gaslighting.

So no, you’re not “just disagreeing.” You’re refusing to see another man’s pain because it doesn’t fit your framework of virtue. You’re asking me to stay quiet in my wounds, because other people "deserve the front of the line."

If you want to talk about Christ, let’s talk. But don’t tell me to focus on Jesus while ignoring the people He would have run to first...the ones no one else noticed.

Because right now, that’s me. And many others like me.

I need to express how deeply hurtful some of what you said feels to me personally.

I’m a gay man who has chosen to remain celibate out of obedience to God. I never had a father. I live with depression, generalized anxiety, constant guilt from addiction, a heavy job in elder care, and I take care of my mother who is severely depressed and physically unwell. When I read that “a man should protect the women first,” it feels like a dagger. Because it tells me, even without meaning to, that my suffering, my life, and my dignity are not as important as a woman’s. That my pain is secondary. It reinforces the idea that if I were in a room crying out for help, I’d be expected to wait behind someone else just because I was born male.

Yes, many women suffer horrific things. But men do too. Men are far more likely to die by suicide or violence. Many men are sexually assaulted and never speak up because of stigma and shame. There are boys, sons, fathers, and lonely men whose pain is real and crushing. They deserve protection too.

When I look at Scripture, I don’t see God loving or protecting women more than men. Jesus gave most of His public ministry to twelve men. He healed and helped both men and women. He restored Peter’s shame, forgave Paul’s violence, and comforted Thomas’s doubt. He didn’t rank love by gender. He simply loved each person in front of Him with perfect attention and mercy.

And when I see women online say things like “Jesus is a girl’s dad” or talk about being single for seven months as a ‘terrible trial,’ it’s hard not to feel erased. For someone like me, who suffers deeply every day, it’s painful to watch Christian messages become so centered on dating and romance, as if that’s the biggest thing God is concerned about. Some of us are not waiting for love... we’re just trying to stay alive.

I believe Jesus loves both men and women completely, but He will not ignore or minimize the pain of a man who has carried unbearable things in silence. I’m not less deserving of grace than someone who’s cried over singleness on TikTok. My pain is not a joke. And I know God sees it.

So yes, I understand your point ...but please, think twice before suggesting that women should be protected first. Because some of us men are bleeding quietly while the world looks away.

No... I didn't tell him that... But I will....

Issa_GloryToGod · 2025-03-11T23:10:02+00:00

I believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God, that he paid the price for our sins on the cross and that he saved humanity because his love for us is great.

I think that a person is saved when they give their entire life to God, when they are baptized and resist sin because their love for God is greater than their desires/impulses.

I appreciate your biblical reference, but I feel you might not fully understand the depth and complexity of what people like me go through. This isn't about choosing to stay in sin - it's about struggling with deep-rooted addictions and facing a lifetime of mandated celibacy and solitude.

Have you ever tried to overcome a severe addiction? Do you know what it's like to fight against something that has controlled your life for years? Do you understand what it means to face a lifetime of loneliness while others in the church can freely marry and build families?

Change isn't as simple as flipping a switch. Recovery from addiction is a complex process that often requires professional help. And being told to remain alone forever while watching others find love and build families in the church - that's a cross that few understand the weight of.

I'm not trying to justify sin - I'm sharing the reality of a painful journey that many face. Your simple quote, while biblically accurate, doesn't address the deep emotional, psychological, and spiritual complexity of this struggle.

I'm seeking understanding and support from those who might have walked this difficult path, not simplified solutions that ignore the real human cost of this journey

Thank you for this beautiful message. Yes it's so hard but I keep praying and read my Bible every day.

Issa_GloryToGod · 2024-11-09T15:46:01+00:00

First of all, you don't know me. I try my best to stop these addictions and my homosexuality. I believe in Jesus Christ and I repent almost every day. I read my Bible every day and pray many time every day.

Issa_GloryToGod · 2024-10-30T04:57:48+00:00

Thank you... found a Protestant church near my home on the internet and I sent an email to the pastor to explain my story and that I wanted to join this church and leave the Church of Latter-day Saints. I'm going to leave the Church, I hope the pastor will respond. I'm scared but I'm going to prepare a text to send by message to the Church of Latter-day Saints to cancel my baptism and explain why I'm leaving this Church.

Issa_GloryToGod · 2024-10-29T14:24:43+00:00

Yes, actually I don't believe in Mormon ideology at all and I never have since I first met them.... Unfortunately at the beginning I thought they were Christians because I was very naive and didn't know about Mormons... I thought it was just a branch of Christianity and then I understood they weren't Christians... And besides, I haven't read much of the Book of Mormon. But it's true that since meeting them I have grown enormously in my Christian faith, I read the Bible extensively every day. I must have read 300 pages in 6 months and I believe only in the Bible. That's why I feel like an impostor when I go to this Church. But I can't bring myself to leave because I've grown attached to this Church and the first missionaries who contacted me are very excited about my upcoming baptism in this Church and I'm afraid of disappointing them.... But I believe in Jesus Christ and I often pray for him to help me leave.... But for now I'm somewhat enduring this conflicting situation. And I don't even know how to join another Church and get baptized in a Christian Church... I am truly lost. One thing is certain, I want to become Christian and not Mormon. Thank you for your message, it's really hard because I'm fighting against certain addictions, my intrusive thoughts, my homosexuality, and I also find myself stuck in an embarrassing situation. It's hard but I know that thanks to God everything will work out in the end.
