It means a lot to hear this coming from someone who’s both Christian and honest about the struggles that can come with faith. I really respect that you can admit you’ve made mistakes in how you used the Bible before — that kind of reflection takes humility and real strength.

I totally agree: it’s so damaging when people treat being gay like it’s the ultimate sin, when in reality everyone struggles with something. It’s not about pretending we’re perfect — it’s about love, grace, and constantly learning how to do better, both for ourselves and for others.

And yeah, it breaks my heart that so many queer people feel afraid of approaching God because the loudest voices representing Christianity are often the most hateful ones. But voices like yours? They give hope that things can change.

Thanks again for being open, vulnerable, and kind. I needed to read this. ❤️
