My dads church now is actively anti racist and very pro lbgtq+ and even have a mural on the wall saying we proudly accept our lesbian, bisexual, gay, trans, pan, ace, enby ect brothers and sisters. But i still cant step foot in a church without being anxious and wanting to leave.
Opps i meant to say my dads church is not now is
I m so happy to hear that. Btw merry Christmas🎄
It’s ok god loves you just exactly for who you are don’t let some nutty extremist people tell you otherwise.
It's hard to feel comfortable with any religion, outwardly positive or otherwise. That kind of reality-denying, wishful thinking is just too volatile. Always nice to see the support, though.
My uncle is the pastor for a Presbyterian church in Ohio, one of the only adult adults I’m out to was part of the Sunday school teachers. I’m agnostic but it is nice to see this stuff.
Agnostic Gang!!
Hello fellow agnostic
I'm agnostic toooo
What is agnostic
@@local.tiktoker9668 agnostic refers to the lack of established faith/religious beliefs. This mainly means one doesn't subscribe to any certain belief system. It doesn't necessarily mean one doesn't believe in any kind of diety or afterlife, it just means they don't believe in the certain ones given in the religions that are already established.
I'm ace panromantic and Christian, but my family and community is very homophobic. I've heard that there is a church that my community hates because the pastor is a lesbian, but I plan to try going to that church in the future when I can drive, because I hate not going to church, but I also hate going and constantly being told "You're going to hell because you're not straight."
I'm glad that there are lots of people who realize that sexuality and faith aren't a problem for each other if you just believe that being yourself and knowing you are loved is right.
I am pansexual and a refroam Jew and they aecpect everyone I am so sorry that you have to go thru this and you are not going to hell the bible and torah have no verves saying being LGBTQ is bad and it's a sin and god will love because he made you ace and panromantic and people was his best creation have a great day
@@lukecohen5696 you too mate, have an awesome day :)
@@synxxco thanks you are fun to talk with
@@lukecohen5696 what does Refroam Jew mean? Im sorry I feel like i should know im so sorry I feel so stupid😭/genq
my dad used to go to catholic church but he didn’t like how strict it was so he moved to a Lutheran church before i was born.
Just remember that Christianity, Jews, and Islam is not the only religions in the world. People still worship the Greek, Roman, Norse, Egyptian, etc gods.
I am in a discord with hundreds of people that worship the Greek, Roman, Norse, and Egyptian Gods. I'm not gonna give out the name because I don't want to be responsible for a raid. But the overall religion practiced by people in the discord is Hellenism, which is the worship of the Greek Gods. It's a very welcoming server.
Yeah, Christianity pretty much wiped these cultures in the past. But cool that they are coming back.
I'm a Hellenist and I love the diversity of gods and goddesses. Especially gotta love Hermaphroditus.
I am one of them. We do have issues (but who doesn’t), but we’re pretty nice.
I honestly didn’t know that those gods/goddesses were still worshipped. Kinda sad, not for the people that believe in them, but the fact that those faiths have ended up forgotten by most of humanity
One of the reasons I left Christianity is because I could not reconcile "God is Love" with "She has to leave our church because she's a lesbian and won't repent." I grew up with that. As an adult, I've met several Christians who don't feel that way, but it's not a common attitude in my community. I have since found a path that suits me better, but my terrible experiences growing up have made me forever wary of Christians. I'm always happy to meet those that are more open minded, but forgive me if I remain wary. I still can't tell my family several truths about myself.
I’m a gay dude, and same boat.
I’m an Ex-JW.
They elders once said “a gay person should kill themselves if they can’t fix themselves to become straight”
And I attempted to kill myself because of them. They almost murdered a 14 year old… but why’d they care, they killed a trans man, all but two of the elders were in a s£z ring.
(Sadly my family couldn’t report it… bc people who do report that stuff usually go missing… and they just wanted to raise us, and just hoped someone would report them… no one ever did… );
Once my sister stayed over at her friends place and she slept upstairs and her friend slept downstairs and her dad… R’d her that night… HIS OWN DAMN DAUGHTER…
(He’s in prison now)
I hate the JW’s organization so fucking much… they’ve blurred the first 15 years of my life…
(Anyway based from all that I’ve read from the subreddit r/ExJW’s
my family’s experience isn’t even the worst. Heck far from it sadly)…
No I feel you. I'm Christian and wary of Christians because the ones I've grew up with and live with same the same gaslighting bs. Btw I'm an AroAce Agender Lesbian
@@SamuelSamuelSamuel1 omg that's awful!! I'm sorry that you had to go through that
I was raised catholic but later became an atheist. Mainly because i realized how backwards a lot of the standards they were pushing on us were. The particular people i was surrounded with were definitely leaning toward the homophobic/ sexist/ even racist side of it and I’m thankful my parents didn’t force me to stay Christian. Recently i came out as a biromantic asexual and my friends are so supportive. ✨
Cool dude im proud of u ❤
@@andiflores4638 You must have read a different bible from the one I read. God seems to ate people for all kinds things.
@@andiflores4638 Psalm 137
"8 Daughter Babylon, doomed to destruction,
happy is the one who repays you
according to what you have done to us.
9 Blessed is the one who seizes your infants
and dashes them against the rocks."
This is in context of the Jewish people after Babylonians burned Jerusalem. It's a cry for violent revenge. The Bible is all-too-happy to show it's violent side, even with god's supposed "chosen people".
eyyyy another bi-romantic asexual like me! :D
I know it was spoken in jest...but these days, some people have created a rather dark idea about Santa.
He's not some overweight, home-invading child laborer who hands out "free gifts" to everyone in the world. He is the symbolic figure of goodwill, generosity and kindness unto others
@Psyche hi Psyche
it's just kind of for the memes
Saint Nick literally helped single poor people keep from being sold into slavery...
Bro it’s a joke 😭😭😭
@@lyl3069 I know, I'm simply making a point
Dear fellow LGBT+ fam,
Steer clear from JWs (Jehovah's witnesses), I left. Trust me it's horrible.

Now I’m just interested I’ll see Lloyd Evans
I watch Telltale and Jimmy Snow

Yeah, my parents religion is pretty accepting but still I am an Atheist cause the whole God and creation thing doesn't make sense to me and I believe in science.
the god creation thing doesn't make sense to me either, I honestly just think people should stop asking for a sort of God to save them. So involved in it that they turn away help from people in favor of their God, it just doesn't make sense to me.
@@tahitimangoes9153 yeah and also all sorts of war and killings that happened in the name of God. Where they justified that using the BS of some higher power.
@@finnmcool2 lol, he was a chemical technician not any scientists. And religion do conflict with science when they teach children evolution is a lie and some fictional stories are truth.
@@finnmcool2 yeah, you've got a point. I was not trying to target religion but the horrible things that happed in its name and that people should not go blind for religion. If it's truth for somebody that's thier choice but I don't believe in all that. If I did hurt ur faith I am sorry for that🙏
@@finnmcool2 yeah, it was a nice conversation. Wish u a great new year ahead.
I will say using the "organised" religion stats do leave out most of us pagan LGBT folk since we tend to actively reject taking on a rigid heirarchical structure the same way organised religions do on purpose due to the abuses we've seen organised religion's heirarchies enable and protect.
Thank you, really thank you Forever the comment. For me, its sad to see, that the whole Video and comments Are about the monotheistic Religions, but Not one word about the pagan religions, who embrace LGBTQI+ friendlieness since 10000 B.C.
That Mrs Claus got me 👁👄👁
I used to go to a Mormon church, when I came out I was left out of most activities there, a couple years later some people in the church apologized but I didn’t accept their apology, I’m not Mormon anymore and my parents still say I should’ve accepted their apology.
I never actually knew that my (current) religion even had a name until recently
I’m a spiritualist, it mean I believe in ghosts and I believe in communicating with them, i believe in the paranormal etc
Nothing I have seen mentions that spiritualism is anti lgbtq.
hey I am a jew but the temple I go to is accpecting and won't scream you are a sinner but hey live your life god made
you and that's what god wanted
I was raised Mormon, but left because I knew the church wouldn't accept me. Now I'm pagan, which is fully accepting.
i love this i live in utah were everyone is mormon and doesnt even know what a pagan is when i tell them im pagan
That is if one believes in god. You could be atheist and still be accepted by this channel
Before I watch this, catholics should be lgbt+ accepting because God loves everyone
God does not love every one. His book outlines all kinds of people he has looked down on over the ages.
Are you against gays or lgbt+ in general
as a closeted bigender (they/she), and biromantic that believes in God and that stuff I appreciate the video, thanks, it's very comforting knowing that originally u shouldn't be seen as a demon, love ur videos.
(I am Brazilian and don't speak English very well so, sorry if I said something wrong)
You don’t have to worry, you speak English very well :)
Your English is great.
im personally agnostic but honestly knowing that there are religious groups like this out there warms my heart (your english is like ten times better than mine btw and I've spoken it my whole life (: )
The Lutheran church was said to be pro lgbtq and to a point that is true. As a trans woman I am a member of a great ELCA Lutheran church but because that I was Missouri Synod Lutheran and along with Wisconsin Synod Lutheran church are not accepting of the community.
It’s the difference between Mainline Lutheran and Confessional Lutheran. Mainline church bodies such as the ELCA and the ELCIC are generally LGBT affirming whereas the aforementioned LCMS and WELS are considered Confessional Lutheran and are denominationally opposed to homosexuality. So yes, if you are a Queer Lutheran, Mainline is the way to go
Missouri synods of the Lutheran Church and the UCC are the armpits of American Christianity, which happens to be the armpit of Western Christianity.
I believe in myself, that's enough for me ^^

So you’re far stronger than ’’religious’’ people ;)
So, I grew up as LDS/Mormon/Christian. Frankly, I used to hate the LGBTQ+ community (because of my religion and how I grew up). But, as I learned more about the community (and found that I, lo and behold, was a part of it myself), I slowly came out to my family and religious leaders (for context, I believe I'm a demi-girl and I like women). This is where it gets weird.
They say that they accept me, yet still say that it's a sin/there are only two genders 🤨. I know, it's confusing. Idk how else to explain it. Idek how to feel about it. Like they accept and respect me, but still say and believe it's a sin. Idk what to do.
I mean they are wrong.
hello fellow demigirl

HIIII FELLOW LESBIAN. u know ur valid im genderfluid and a lesbian !
@@gowongoaway :D
havent seen the video yet, but i must add that some people (myself included) have invented their own religions which they follow
same
You can do that? :O
@@serenity5702 Totally! :> it just wouldn't be considered an *organized* religion
you need 3 people to make a thought a religion, so it is possible
@@voluption428 Is this a concrete number? Where is this rule inscribed?
Can one make a religion based around the belief in Vivec's demigussy?
The protestant church I was raised in was politely told from on high to not wed gay couples.
The pastor politely refused, sayngthat according to the bible love between two people is sacred, and they would gladly wed ANY loving union. the vast majority of churchgoers agreed with this sentiment.
Just because some assholes in the countryside are twisting scripture to their hateful wants, doesn't mean ALL christians are like that. If you're in the Des Moines area, or even live in iowa, Grace United Methodist Church is a pretty chill church, and I'm pretty darn sure will wed any loving couple to this day, no matter the gender identity or sexual orientation. If you want to see a chill church like that and live in iowa, maybe give it a visit.
with a mask on.
I'm personally a Atheist, but I would be more than happy to accept anyone who isn't. (As long as they support me ofc).
While I'm not religious myself, i love to see religious people being accepting! While a large majority of Christians are anti lgbtq, it doesn't mean that EVERY Christian is. And to all those amazing accepting Christians out there, i friggin' love you! Your the good part of that community, and it's amazing just to see less hate in religion and such.
I'm in the UK and jointly run a church here. I have to say that I am proud of my church and we openly advertise the fact that we are fully inclusive of everyone no matter what.
When I came out as transgender, the other committee members couldn't have been more accepting of me if they tried, so much so that they have accepted every suggestion of mine regarding our lovely LGBT community and we actively support local charities for the community. They have gone so far as to make me the official LGBT church representative, which made me feel so humble.
Thank you PBR for doing this video, it was much needed. In the words of comedian Dave Allen, "thank you and may your God go with you".
I was raised Southern Baptist and repressed myself for far too long so I wouldn’t be persecuted, shortly after coming out I identified as an atheist but now I am Buddhist because finding the will to love others purely from my own heart matters more to me than loving others because a god that I’ve no concept of told me to
Okay, this is what I learned both in church and in history class:
The Christmas day we celebrate was NOT the calendar day of Jesus' birth. He would have been born in spring or summer, yes.
The origin of celebrating the nativity in winter comes from missionaries teaching the nativity to the pagans during their winter festivals. The missionaries saw it as their duty to educate the people, who followed what are referred to as, "the old gods," on Christian values and the gift of salvation.
The missions' sermons were not usually successful as not many of the practicing pagans were coming to the chapel to learn about a different religion, so the missionaries decided to give the big announcement, the big lesson of the miracle of Christ's birth, during the solstice and yule celebrations. They would offer hot food and drink and would take the opportunity of having everyone together to tell of that night in the manger.
Eventually, the pagan traditions of the solstice and yule celebrations got intertwined with the, "Christ Mass," as it became annual due to the convenience.
Christ's Mass, eventually, got shortened to Christmas.
Haven't watched the video yet, but Satanism is one of the most accepting religion.
What is Satanism?
(Sorry I don't know)
@@FirstKingOfMushrooms Basically Atheism but you believe in yourself. And you actually accept people the way they are
@@ThatOneEnby
Oh, that is cool
Thanks ^^
Satanism isn't a "real religion" it's a giant circle jerk of pretentious edge lords who invented a mock religion to troll organized religions for their reactionary beliefs, I am a Christian (and gay) and I don't really go to Church anymore but... I don't believe Jesus actually cares if if I am or not.
@@davidallamericananarchist9220 Does it matter if it's a religion or a group of people? They still accept people the way they are
I grew up around a Unitarian church and later Adapted to the Wiccan religion and I've never been happier.
I love being Wiccan due to LGBT acceptance. But unfortunately I'm still discriminated on. But my path isn't for some. I've learned to just do me.
I'm not going to go into why the church moved the birth of Jesus to December.. but that too was done to force pagans to give up The Old Religion.
For those of you who are of Abrahamic faiths and treat all forms of life faith love, then I support and thank you. 💖
Just an FYI. The beginning of this is hilarious. I just meant the Santa Claus bit is sooo funny. We have an all inclusive church and i know the decon. We need more church's that are all inclusive.I love yall
Better to be yourself than pretending to be something you are not. Life will be happier. You owe it to yourself and others.
The eastern religions are also accepting of LGBTQ+
Kinda disagree with your point about Orthodox Jews, it’s such a big group with several different ethnic groups within the term. Orthodox Mizrahi tend to be more progressive than Orthodox Ashkenazim for an example (in my personal experience). On top of this the orthodox communities that I am most familiar with (Ashkenazi) have really been coming around to queer people at a rapid pace, I feel like I’m hearing about gay/bi orthodox weddings all the time these days. Conservative and reform communities are still better for us, but most of the orthodox people I know are quite progressive. Also don’t call Jewish organizations churches, we don’t particularly like that.
correct cause I go to a reform synagonge and they are accpecting and my dad's side of the family is conservative and they also accpect me and yes called them syonagonges have a great day
I’m reform, and grew up reform, and I wanted to mention that I STRONGLY believe that unless ur Hasidic, you’ll be fine being LGBT and Jewish.
mormon LGBTQA+ member here ^ ^ my church actually does stand for LGBTQA+ people. We understand that it isn't a choice. There's a statement about it somewhere on the website, though in the past we've had struggles. To me, God didn't put "scorn people for x y and z" in the commandments, He put "Love thy neighbor as thyself". I personally strive to love above else, no matter the person's background, race, orientation, identity, or choices.
The percentage of people who subscribe to religious beliefs are different per country
Ex-Mormons gays: I HAVE THE MOST TRAUMA
Ex-Catholic gays: NO I DO
Ex-Muslim and Ex-JW gays: 😄 YOU ME’RE MORTAL FOOL’S
(Anyway stop comparing trauma in the comments) it’s a weird dick fight 💀)
I'm a Catholic, and also asexual and a demi-girl (I think my gender identity is still a mess), and the Cathechism (the book that tells us more about Catholicism) is very much against same-sex marriage. I'm not okay with that. My church likes to talk about how when we pick and choose what we believe, that's not okay. Which I understand. But saying that you can't love anyone, you can only love the opposite sex contradicts. We're taught to love everyone the way we love our God. And to not love someone because of their gender or sexuality. I believe in Jesus Christ, and I believe that he loves me no matter what, that he loves everyone on this Earth, and that we should strive to do the same. My family doesn't have these same beliefs, they just go with "love the sinner, hate the sin" But it's not sin. Saying it is is contradiction to what you believe. Everyone is human and love is love. And Jesus loves you!
I'm a bit late to this discussion, but I just had to add this here. (I'm mostly in the closet, but fairly sure I'm bi and ace if that's relevant). I was raised in the Quaker church, and I still attend there with my family every Sunday. Our church is a mixed bag of beliefs, but is very accepting of the LGBTQ+ community. Found out about this on two separate occasions around pride month last year.
1.) Our church has a connection with the university that's located a block away, and they were supposed to take ownership of the building. However, once the president of the university said that same-sex marriages wouldn't be allowed, the deal was off (my dad suggested planting a Pride flag in front of the building after that, lol.)
2.) Our interim pastor (long story) gave a series of sermons regarding the LGBTQ+ community and faith (in a positive accepting way). During worship, a homophobe (who was sitting behind me, not wearing a mask btw) said homophobic comments during open worship. The guy was shut down by someone else no more than 5 minutes later, and he left after that. I've never felt safer in my church since then.
Sorry for the long comment, just thought that this was relevant enough to share here.
I am so glad that your church is really apeccting cause others would sceram your going to hell also my mom went to a Quaker school and I am pan and I go to a LGBTQ+ friendly temple have a great day
u said Pro-LGBTQ Religions,nd just talked about christianity........................
..
Technically, it is pro lgbt, the Bible has just been mistranslated and misinterpreted.
He could be racist if not homophobic.
Because of the time that all were ordered to return to their hometowns for census and taxation, Joseph had to return to his home town in April, in the year as we record it using a Gregorian calendar of 3 BCE. In Pastor Stokes argument in acceptance of gays in mainstream churches was missed in that Pastor Stokes could have used the example of the Centurion who came to Jesus and asked for help in healing his slave (boyfriend). For a Centurion in a Roman occupied land to ask a trashy Jew to help him, was monumental. By the way in translating the world slave or servant in Greek to English did not mean slave or servant, it translates to someone that is loved. And in the travels that Jesus took from the age of 13 to 29 caused him to become more cosmopolitan and worldly. Jesus was not anti-gay. In fact, he was the purest form of love for all. I'm not a Christian, but I have a tremendous respect for Jesus as a highly evolved soul sent to teach us all a new way.

@@lukecohen5696 Demisexual - only being sexually attracted to someone after knowing them for a long time/sharing a deep emotional bond
Pansexual - where the gender of whomever I'm attracted to doesn't matter
Enby - non-binary (neither male or female)
Hope that clears things up 👍
I'm a demipansexual/romantic trans boy and my church, Evangel Life Assembly of God in Michigan is very accepting.
I can't speak for all of them, but the methodists seem to be the nicest and most accepting of the "main" Christians. My own aunt goes to a methodist church with her wife and kid lol, and I've had conversations with people online who spoke highly of methodist churches (they were mainly talking about how much they hated their Baptist church but still)
where I live a lot of people are Baptist tho some christians are accepting and the synogaugeI go to is really accepting have a great day
as soon as i got to the part with the red haired woman talking about her trans son i cried happy tears ...i had lost my faith because of some pretty homophobic people ...and now i myself am trans masc and i cant tell most of my family and i cant tell anyone i knew from church knowing they will talk behind my back ...currently i am an agnostic witch.. but its really nice to see that there are good religious people out there ..makes me feel a little safer in this world
oooo im early and thank you so much for the information!!!! It was really helpful.
Its funny, how i just recently found back to god, and he he told me directly that my way, transitioning from male to female, is not wrong. People would feel the love god has for us, when they'd finally stop basing their whole religion on the scriptures...

Found your gender spectrum video and loved it, so I decided to watch another video. I was raised in a fundamentalist religion, so was curious to see how you handled it, and I'm impressed 💜 and now subscribed 🖖🏻
thank you for this video, have a nice day and a merry whatever holidays you may celebrate
I like the "Winter Solstice"
I grew up in a Southern Baptist area and I’m gender-fluid and bi/pan. I’m agnostic now because I wouldn’t have been accepted if I came out.
I'm a wiccan and I used to be catholic and I knew god loved me and even if I left he still would, my goddesses, Gods, the moon and mother earth loves me for who I am too. Religion is a community, a wonderful place but people over the years weaponized it! And religion merged with politics, which is not good. Religion and politics are separate things and they should keep it that way.
Your channel is awesome! :)
I wanted to say in defense of the United Methodist Church that many of us are living and accepting of the LGBTQ community, and we're upset that the church elders won't change their doctrine to reflect this. It actually caused a schism in the denomination
Hey! i just wanted to say that a good church for if your atheist or agnostic (like me) is cuuc! It is the community Unitarian Universalist church, and it’s in New York. It is accepting of lgbtq+, and the people there are very nice i would really suggest trying it out if it is close to you! :D
This is a very wonderful sentiment that sadly doesn't work. There's no getting around the anti-lgbt messaging in the bible. You can't just take it out, either, because of what Jesus said about not removing any of the scriptures. Ultimately as a pansexual two-spirit, I know that even if the people of a religion accept me, the fundamentals of their faith do not and thus any acceptance is based on willfully ignoring their scripture. And if you're just going to ignore the foundation of your religion, why be a part of it?
Until we get a third Testament that says God accepts the gays for reasons that don't invalidate what Jesus said, there's really nothing I as part of the lgbtq+ community can really do to mesh their religion and my biology together.
Well my Presbyterian church wasn't that accepting so now I'm just confused
I'm a spiritist and my comunity was literally the best! My religion teacher said, and I quote, "who would Jesus like more: a man and a woman who fight and are bad for each other or a woman and a woman/man and a man who love each other dearly and are kind?". They also said trans rights!!: "I have a friend who was reincarnated in a woman's body but has the soul of a man, so he's a man". And we we're like 9 years old learning this, only idiots think kids can't understand. it's literally that simple to be kind and accepting.
My friends dad is the pastor of a Presbyterian church but is completely homophobic and transphobic I’m so glad that she can find a space in the same denomination without the same amount of pain caused by her dad
Your video was called "Pro-LGBTQ Religions", not "Pro-LGBTQ Churches". So I'm pretty disappointed that you neglected to mention other religions that are generally accepting of LGBTQ, from Buddhism to Paganism. The title of this video is therefore pretty misleading.
- A pagan omni-asexual transwoman
i just realized i know someone with the same initials as David Moore, her name is Danielle Moore haha
There are a variety of religions other than Christianity and Judaism, that welcome LGBTQ+ people with open arms. Why weren't these ever mentioned in your video?
thank you
I am a Christian Bambi lesbian. Glad to see a lot of gay Christians here.
It’s Christmas for me I’m in Australia it’s 4:42 am

Merry Christmas! :)
the last time I went to church the gayest looking pastor went "the liberals have taken the rainbow but we will not allow them to tale the symbol of God" and I just kinda squirmed in my seat.

That's wonderful! It's great to see religions that accept everyone the way they are! 😍💖
My ’’parents’’ are extremely homophobic and transphobic, they try to push me in claws of some ’’christians priests’’ to ’’change’’ me... I hate all ’’religions’’, this is just superstitions and no one needs this if people take care of others. This is all about fear... and my job is help others in associations, espacially transgender people like me, i know a lot about fear, my sisters and brothers (adelphes in french, such a beautiful word) live 24h/24 in fear... and the solution never be ’’faith’’, but other people that will stand with us

@@PoweredByRainbows thank u i had no idea
Knew it.
Glad to be Atheist 😎
i think this only mostly apply in the us.
Underrated video
my christian church is lgbtq friendly,
as a lesbian christian i get people calling me homophobic a lot even though its a same-sex friendly religon
meanwhile me: *cries in Polish*
Idk how much of my family is like this but I have a handful that I know who's homophobic(dunno about transphobia).
just wanna tell you that an "Islamic Chruch" is called a Mosque!
bruh I thought Jesus was really born in March :((((
It was my understanding the United Methodist church is LGBT+ affirming.
I am a polytheistic , gay, polyamorus, pagan, witch, and Luciferian/satanist, Ares worshipper, and gaiaist.
Definitely disappointed that this doesn't cover any non-Christian religions. Heathenry (Norse Paganism, Asatru, whichever) is pro-LGBT with deities that are actually non-straight-cis. But this video is just Christianity.
this was good but I am disappointed that there weren't any other religions shown except for the Jerusalem ones. people need to remember that Christianity, Judaism, and Islam aren't the only religions. satanism, buddhism, Hinduism and many more respected religions accept LGBTQ+ people fully.
May I just ask, what is satanism?
@@grief860 a religion
@@xedgelord75x65 alright thanks
@@grief860 it's a form of organized atheism, as far as I'm aware.
@@nattiberrington alright thanks :D
You forgot Hinduism
Ehhhh some types… Hindus are pretty damn chill to trans peeps tho
Homosexuality is a well discovered and widely accepted concept in Hinduism. Proud to be Hindu ❤❤
I am not religious but we celebrate Christmas as a fun holiday with gifts and family rather than Christian stuff
Btw I completely support christans and any other religion its just the religion itself I support not the homophobic actions of some people
I also celebrate christmas for fun
I thought they where going to mention Paganism since the pagan community is super accepting
9:17 what the bottom right flag
The queer flag
The pink, purple, and blue flag is the Bisexual flag (if that was what you were referring to)
Depending on which right you're talking about if it's the person that's talking in the video right it's the pansexual flag if it's their left it's the bisexual flag
I'm pagan and accepted as lgbt.
I often hear a certain kind of so-called “fundamentalist christian” idolator tell me that “God doesn’t make mistakes; how can you say you ‘feel’ like a woman when God gave you the body you have?” i find this nonsense interesting because it really highlights how little faith these people actually have; babies are also born with diseases that will kill them if a doctor does not intervene. is it sin to heal these children? but also, how can you say you believe in Jesus, through whom “there is neither male nor female,” and then preach of the essential existence of male and female? how can you say you believe in spirit, and yet fixate so entirely on the flesh?
the same goes with “hell,” of course; infernalism is fundamentally anti-Biblical, but if they abandoned it, they would lose their favorite excuse to bully and maltreat people.
