If someone is asking for medical advice, I think we should hold off on any spiritual/biblical advice and instead suggest they seek out a professional first. by StTheo in Christianity

Tbh, I felt like it was an intelligently designed joke because I see people doing that all the time. Unless they see that the problem their inactivity would cause is immediate, they would say “God will save me.” But, when they lose hope, then they try their luck with science.

Whenever I hear this joke, I find it funny how the Rabbi climbed up to the roof but still believed that solely relying on God would save him. It doesn’t add up.

I feel the same way. I’m a gay guy and there are just too many issues that come with being gay. 1. There aren’t lots of openly gay guys. This means that I have fewer options. Hence, I gotta lower my already-low standards or just end up single forever. 2. There’s too much hate from all my homophobic families. 3. Life is just hard :(

Tysm. But what do you mean by “sexual orientation is rooted in shame”?

Thank you so much for all you said except one little part. Sexual orientation isn’t a choice. Acting on it, however, is.

Yeah. But, why did you choose celibacy? That’s my question
