| I'm not very religious. I don't even have a set religion. My parents never really taught me about God. They let me make my own decisions. My own Choices. Let me think what I wanted to think, and they never made me feel bad about it. Other people did though. They made me feel like an evil person because I had never been to church. I got over it. My mom started teaching me her beliefs about 2 years ago. It comes in the form of advice, but I translate. She told me that God means Good. God creates his creatures exactly how he wants them to be. As long as you have Love and Goodness in your heart, you are doing what God wants you too. I, myself, used to fear the judgement when you get to go to heaven, or your turned away. But since talking to my mom, I'm not afraid. I don't hate. I have Love in my heart. And I (try) to think good thoughts. I'm not prejudice, and I am accepting. I am understanding and I never judge on first appearance. Now, off of my and my mom's beliefs, onto things I have heard and taken to heart. On Queer as Folk, there is a character Ted. Ted gave this speech about God. He said these things to Emmett at a "See the Light" meeting. Emmett had a scare with HIV, and promised to God to go straight. See the Light is trying to teach him that. Mike and Ted don't like Emmett going, but if he is...they can;t stop him. So they go to the meeting to say goodbye to Emmett. And here is the part of the speech that support my beliefs better then anything I could ever say. The writers are genius. |
