I think what a lot of queer people that try to ostracise queer christians don't realise, is that queer christians have also been hurt by the church. A lot of the time, more so than non-religious queers. Additionally, there's something... kind of heartbreaking, that the queer community is meant to celebrate diversity, and inclusion, but when queer christians are involved, we're excluded from both the queer community, and a lot of christian communities. And it's almost ironic, because with the church, I know my queerness isn't welcome. Whereas with the queer community, they'll talk about accepting anyone regardless of identity, but do a complete 180 the moment I mention my religion.

"We need more complex queer identities"- You can't even handle queer christians.

Jesus Christ is always on the side of the crucified. And I believe he changes sides in the twinkling of an eye. He is not loyal to the person or even less to the group. He is loyal to suffering.

there is safety in familiarity, yes, but there is joy in discovery. beauty wears thin, time snaps past, & not one man can prevent its turning.

but the wonder & excitement of finishing the first chapter of a book & realising you simple cannot put it down is an unlimited ecstacy.
