Apparently, if you accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior before you die, your sins will be forgiven.

So, trust me, I know how you feel, and it truly takes a strong person. But honestly, I don't know why people try to fit their beliefs into a religion. They should be fitting their religion into their beliefs. Not sure if that made sense...

ok so i posted a topic about mormonism and people didnt get that i am catholic lesbian and wanted an explanation. so here it goes.

i was raised catholic.
i go to church every weekend.  
i go to a catholic private school.

i believe in most things i am VERY spiritual but i think i interpret certain things differently.  
i believe God is accepting and forgiving of everyone and i honestly dont believe in that whole condemning homosexuals stuff.
i think He has made me this way for a reason and i am not being punished nor will i be punished for it.

---

None of those things make you a Catholic, sorry.

Not really, just pointing out that even if you're raised in the Catholic church, go to church every Sunday and go to Catholic school, you can still not be a Catholic. I mean, it doesn't really matter what rituals you went through or what little pieces of paper say. If you believe things that go against what the Catholic church teaches, or if you disbelieve what the Catholic church teaches, you're most likely moving towards the "not being a Catholic" side of things.

Kind of like how you can't believe in God and still be an atheist.
