I didn't really know what was wrong with me. I was Christian, and didn't know... exactly what was up with me, but I knew it was something that everyone else in my church wouldn't approve of (Anglican *sigh*). So I did some exploring and found Wicca.
That's hardly the main reason, but it definitly had some bearing.
Oh... I should probably tell you what my sexuality IS... sweatdrop I'm bi. And taken whee

Sakne Second question: Did you change religions because of your sexuality? Absolutely not. For me, it was one of several issues that made me look around at other religions. What made me actually CHANGE my religion was realizing how much better Wicca fit me than Christianity did. It works for some people, I'm sure, but it didn't for me - that is overall, not sexuality only. If you could possibly discipher that.

I guess it would have in the beining. Unlike some I didn't exactly start boy on girl but I was young and didn't find any boy addtractive. Later, I came to be straight and I didn't change my reilgon due to my sexuality but how I felt about it.

Sakne Third question: In your opinion, what religion is most condemning based on sexuality and which is most accepting? hrrrm... in my experience, Catholicism (Edit - *crosses out Catholicism and puts in Islam* The guy below me is right...) is the most condemning, and Paganism in it's many forms the most accepting. However, certainly don't take my word for it. I don't know enough about enough religions to really have an opinion, thus I say "in my experience". I do plan, of course, to learn about more. whee People say I'm a dork for learning about religion. I say they're idiots for blindly following the faith that's handed to them.

most condemning woulod be islamic and/or a few forms of christianity most accepting, unitarians, and pagans.
NOTE: these are my opinions, they are not facts, for I do not know enough religions, nor do I know enough about most religions.

I really have no idea but I think cathlics are very strick about the whole thingbut there is also islamic and hinduism. I guess the ones that would appect would be ones linked to nature,seeing it as a natural (which it is) and some of the newer reilgons and bielfs.
(sorry for the bad spelling)

Here's something odd about me: I started out at about 75% Homosexual, 25% Strait (Mostly Homosexual), then in my middle teenage years I became about 50% Homosexual, 50% Strait (Bisexual), then during my later teenage years and up to now I'm 75% Strait, 25% Homosexual (Strait but with some Bisexual tendencies). I'm also very androgenous minded.
