This is the reason why it took so long to get the last post out, then I decided to make it its own post since it was taking up so much space.  This allows for me to work on prompts. ^^

And now a bit of discussion on things including the Bible-
I'm a Lutheran and I'm also pangender and pansexual.  How can I be that?
Well, I knew in High School I wasn't exactly straight and at that time I didn't really need to think much farther.  In college I needed answers and I finally managed to work out- that God isn't against love.
Sure, God says 'no men laying with other men '  but I tend to think of that in the same sense as- 'Don't commit adultery,' instead of the "no homosexuality' sense that a lot of Christians take it as.  I believe that God provides laws for good reasons.  Circumcision for one-  Circumcision helps prevent disease, not because the foreskin is 'unnatural or sinly.'

It says in the Bible- "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, and self-control.  Against such things there is no law."  Galations 5:22-23
When I finally accepted who I was, as someone not entirely straight, and realized that under my religion God thought what I was doing was wrong.  I couldn't accept that God would condemn me... and that if he did- God must be the one who was wrong.  I also can't stand hypocrisy.  The above verse was my Confirmation verse, and I've taken it to heart.  Love isn't wrong, how you interpret the Bible is.

Another 30 minutes, another post,
