I heard from a woman who was in deep conflict trying to reconcile her
religious upbringing and her feelings. Obviously our religious
upbringings can affect how we deal with all these new feelings. I'd
like to hear about everyone's experiences and thoughts about this.

From my personal experience, I had a tremendous conflict going on
inside of me (and still do at times). Trying to reconcile my same sex
feelings with the faith I have in my life is very hard. My faith is
very important to me and has influenced me to become the person I am
today. Some people think it is easy to just turn your back on what
you have learned....others realize the struggle that occurs. In my
heart, though, I can't believe God would make me into a person that
God would want to see struggle all of the time. I mean, we are
talking about loving someone...what truly can be so wrong with that?
