Well... This is probably not the response that you were hoping for... and maybe you don't even wanna hear, but seein you put it out there I'll leave comment... I don't think I could bypass this without. And this is because I know EXACTLY how you feel. I have struggled with the whole religion/faith/homosexuality thing, and have battled it for as long as I can remember. I always found it so hard to deal with the "not being right" part... and spent so long trying, first of all, to convince myself that I wasn't gay because it was "wrong".

i havent heard from you for a day and a half! thats funny because i was just thinking about you the other day. i dont really have anyone here in Boise to listen to my ramblings... so i figured livejournal was the best place to put my feelings. because then i can physically see them and not push them down and try to forget about them. you will probably be getting an email sometime soon.

first, no i'm not stalking you...remember, i'm a sean stalker and with that comes links to you...so surpise, here i am.
i should stop now but i'm gonna keep going...
second, while we don't have the same problems or the same spirituality there is something about surviving a suicide attempt that really wakes you the fuck up.
and while the dark thoughts of suicide can plague you...nothing is goin...fuck it, nevermind.
