So, I can't sleep...
But in my 'unsleeping' I had a thought:
The time just before I came out of the closet, I was extremely harsh towards homosexuality. I was scared I was losing my faith. I was angry my faith was being challenged. My homosexuality was threatening what I held dear and believed was true, and not only was I unkind to such my homosexuality, I was blowing everything out of proportion: "Accepting my homosexuality would denounce Christianity. Accepting my homosexuality will strip me of my eternal potential. Accepting homosexuality will darken my soul. Etc."
But, mostly, I was simply scared.
I wonder if such is what is happening collectively with the LDS Church and society.
Nah dude... not similar at all ;)
