CALSinCM Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Convert to Buddhism. The Buddhist Sangha doesn't have a moral hangup with gays like so many other denominations and churches do. The 10 commandments in Buddhism are pared down to 5: Don't kill. Don't steal. Don't lie. Don't take intoxicants. Don't engage in sexual misconduct. That doesn't mean don't be gay. I know many gay Thai Buddhists. It means to be faithful to your partner. Don't cheat. And don't take sex to the point that it becomes addictive like an intoxicant. Buddhism is easy: Be moral and meditate. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nout Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 You just don't tell the congregation or minister that you are Gay except in the Confessional box. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post jak2002003 Posted February 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2021 Why would any sane gay person want to be part of any Christian church? It's like a black person wanting to join a branch of the Ku Klux Klan that is tolerant of black people! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerandtabby Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Check out the Episcopal Church. While I have never attended (to much "religion" for me), I have met the minister and he seems pretty open-minded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All prevalent everywhere so not really specific to the religion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
