Traditional Christianity vs Non-binary & Pansexual
Religion & Spirituality / by compassionateWater362
Last post
 July 12th
...See more Hello everyone. I hope you are having a decent day. I'm an old person, 64. I first became a Christian when I was a kid. I recently discovered that I am non-binary and pansexual. I being like this all my life, but I've only just discovered what it is called and done some research. And yeah I am. Problem with this is that traditional Christianity this condemns who I am at my essence. I do not know how to reconcile the two. I believe they are irreconcilable and yet I believe the Bible, I believe Jesus is the savior of the world that he is God and that he died to save us. At the same time, I recognize in me that I am neither male nor female even though I have male anatomy. I've always been like this. I've always had a sensitive feminine side. I've often wished I could dress in a skirt and a blouse. But I've never done so. I've never come out of the closet because I only just discovered the words and the philosophy and understandings of the LGBTQ community. So although I've lived as non-binary all my life, I had no idea what it was until recently. So now I have a conundrum. I can't throw my religion out. I can't throw me out. What the *** am I going to do? Lord have Mercy. Thank you for listening.
