Pm if you want more but there are Christian people who are queer, and people who might not be queer but aren't inclined to play culture war and scream at people.
I am a Catholic, but have gone through almost a sort of deconstructing process from the traditionalist side of the Catholic life to more of a simple, saying your prayers and keeping up with the sacraments, happy to exist and letting my religion inform how I interact...ok that type.
I as well as my girlfriend are both Catholics and members of the LGBTQIA community. We are happy, and this is good. Asexual people get mistaken for celibates sometimes and though I'm sure many celibates are asexual or something like, I wasn't told about it earlier in life and studied for the Catholic priesthood because it was a job where I could immerse myself in holy and positive things without having to get married! The simple ignorant bliss of an autistic fixation.
You mentioned pro-choice things in your initial question and I have fought that for a long while now. I am one of those types of people who believes that a living human fetus is a human life and should be treated accordingly. However, I think pro-choice folks might say I am a shade of pro-choice because I don't feel comfortable with the hyper fixation of many political folks on abortion. Do I believe it's a sin; yes. Do I think everything that's a sin should be banned, well, I don't actually. If we applied the logic again mifepristone, the "abortion pill" of the lurid editorial, that it be banned because it frequently causes death - - why then am I allowed to have boxes and boxes of ammunition considering those also frequently cause death?
And at this point I vote Democratic cuz I got tired of being expected to be an authoritarian theocrat. I divorced religion and politics. Now I say my rosary, go to Mass on the feast days and Sunday, read the bible, and generally keep myself busy with whatever I can do to boost my (rather crummy) prayer life and try to be nice to other people.
Religion is one of the things that is like playing an instrument. It's a lot of work, it annoys some impressive people and impressed annoying people, and no matter what I do I'll not ever be perfect, but it is the gateway of a spiritual relationship with the essence of all that is beautiful and true and good.
I'm about as "spiritual" as the Sears Roebuck catalog but I had to focus on the prayer tradition in my own faith. It's been nice.
But I'd about rather be an agnostic than be an Evangelical. It's not something I think I could ever actually get on with.
