She asked why I thought I was going to Hell and I told her (I’d rather not share here). She said she doesn’t think I’m going to Hell for that but she’s not very religious so she may not be the best person to talk to about this. She said maybe there is some way to make it up to God so I don’t go to Hell. She told me last week to pray. I told her I did but I told her it gave me flashbacks because

I told her I found a t that did Christian counseling however her profile only said heterosexual clients under populations served so I’m not going to go there and have someone tell me not to be gay because that’s not how it works and that has nothing to do with why I think I’m going to hell. So we figured out I need a female LGBT affirming religious person to talk to. Then I said I can’t really go to a church even if it’s LGBT friendly because I’m afraid of crosses as well due to what happened to me. So we said maybe something online so there would be less religious symbols. I told her I had found a few Christian groups online but they were also against homosexuality but that I may see if there is some female LGBT friendly religious person I can pay to Skype or something but I’m not getting my hopes up too high.

Hey, though I'm not religious, I used to be Christian. And I'm LGBT and my parents used Christianity to abuse me. I have a queer affirming theology list - would you want a link?
