CS: Shocked. A fellow PK just came out the closet. She said she doesn't care if she burns in hell. She dropped a whole lotta F bombs IRT church and religion. She's such a sweetheart (other than the cursing) I want to reach out to her and just be there. Not to be nosey but just to be a real friend.
Question, her dad/minister just got this really arrogant attitude a few months back. He's full of pride, always boasting about the wrong things and he sometimes address personal things in other people's lives from the pulpit. Do you think God is trying to open up his eyes? Or am I reaching?
I don't know where to start with that. But I will say that it's not my opinion that the girl became gay (or that God allowed her to become gay) because her father is carnally minded and yielding to the flesh.
It could be that she came out to him a few months ago, and the arrogance he displayed was a result of his grief and disappointment (and fear). I'm totally just guessing, since I don't know them and don't have a lot of info to go by.
I'm seeing so many people who are losing their way and cursing the church. Right or wrong, it's sad to see. Sad that we've come to this place. As for her not caring whether she burns in hell, I think that's just her anger and rebellion speaking. You can't believe in hell and not care about going there. Either she does care or she doesn't believe at all. Maybe she feels helpless, like "this is just who I am and if hell is the consequence, I don't know how else to get around it"? I don't know. But I'm praying for her and the zillions of other people who walk away cursing the church.
I witnessed a status yesterday where I (and all Christians) was called fake and phony and hypocrite and cussed out and everything. The girl was so hurt that I couldn't even be mad or take it personal. Then, she had like 2 or 3 other friends join in with agreement. It was really sad.
