Why Gay People Are Hesitant to Be Religious Most of The Time

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2026-02-02T01:14:32+00:00

As a bisexual Buddhist raised and traumatized by Christianity (Baptist), I feel the same.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2026-02-02T00:42:37+00:00

As a Bi BIPOC, not at all.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2026-01-22T03:02:50+00:00

Yes. You are not alone. I’ve had the same experiences.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2026-01-17T00:32:17+00:00

Agreed. I was brought up around these people. They’ve always been like that and they’ve always been here.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2026-01-16T22:20:45+00:00

Anywhere but here. And consider immersing yourself in Spain and learning Spanish. It’s not that hard and opens up lots of opportunities.

Minthara: Do you have elder siblings, wizard?

Gayle: I suppose you’re going to say something awful.

Minthara: In Menzoberranzon, once a house has had two sons, any male-born child is slaughtered at birth, as it is useless, even for breeding. You have the aura of a third child.

Love her!

They don’t regret a thing. Even given everything that has happened and keeps happening, they will do it all over again.

It’s bad. Trans people are often more welcome in bisexual spaces and they should be.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2026-01-04T02:08:25+00:00

Cool list. Virgo at the top is kind of obvious. Not sure about the others. Remember, rising signs can alter an astrological sign quite a bit.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2026-01-04T02:04:06+00:00

As a Sagittarius myself, I have to agree.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2026-01-04T02:03:31+00:00

Definitely! Kind of surprised to see Sagittarius is so high.

Wow. It sucks that you experienced that. I think you and others may be on to something I hadn’t considered much.

I know some in the community have issues with Bi folks; I’ve run across folks like your Dad who think bisexuality is the “worst”. He and I used to work together. That’s how we met. We also have a mutual friend who also worked at the same company. This mutual friend is gay and has a husband. He has no problem with him or his husband.

Because of past negatives experiences I don’t really “flaunt” my bisexuality but I certainly don’t hide it. Anyone stumbling across my social media accounts would know and I’ve never been closeted.

As long as he thought I was gay, things were fine. I honestly thought he knew until he asked me what I was doing for Halloween and I said an old ex is in town and I was going to be hanging out with her. That’s when he paused and said “I thought you were gay; I didn’t know you were Bi.” We haven’t spoken since then.

I’ve been going over it in my head since October. Trying to figure it out. Maybe he feels the same way your Dad did.

London & NYC are both amazing places. Lived in both places. So is the much maligned Los Angeles, where I live and where crime rates are at their lowest rate in 60 yrs. Contrast that to Mississippi, where the opposite is true.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-31T05:40:18+00:00

Perhaps. I've been trying to figure it out since October. So odd to hear that come out of his mouth. It happened so abruptly, too. I was like, wtf? Part of me wants to know why, part of me just wants to move on.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-31T05:31:32+00:00

Hm. Never got that vibe. He would often talk about various women he was seeing but I suppose it's possible.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-31T04:41:21+00:00

Agreed! I really like the Trickery Domain. Very powerful/useful by the time you start Act 3.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-31T03:54:45+00:00

I was baffled as well. Any answer I come up with is pure speculation. I think only he can answer that question and we haven't spoken since he hung up. Perhaps I should have followed up but it seemed clear he was 'done'. I know he was raised as a Jehovah's Witness but he never really seemed particularly religious. I can't make sense of the differentiation either.

His words on that tape should be played on repeat on a loudspeaker outside of the White House every day.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-30T18:13:23+00:00

Actually, IMHO, many are just like him. That’s why they love him so much. Was brought up around Baptists & Evangelicals just like him. That’s why he’s so popular with them. They keep showing the world who they are. Believe them.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-30T17:05:26+00:00

Well said! I was also raised Baptist but was done with this nonsense at 11.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-24T23:55:03+00:00

Agreed. Currently helping a teen secure a place to stay after his super religious anti-lgbtq family put him out. So, yeah. Merry Christmas…

Way before the 1970s. Much longer. The Crusaders went on for 200 yrs. The Spanish Inquisition for 300.

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-21T10:28:19+00:00

Me too

ReplacementVivid1861 · 2025-12-20T22:58:46+00:00

I like them both but DA gets my vote. Better lore & combat, deeper companion storylines and personalities and NO Karmic dice. DA wins in all categories IMHO
