Can I get some modern-day revelation? Some strength? A change in church policy? All I know is that I ran into some Cookleta, and holy crap it was hard to step away. I can't lie, I miss slash. I miss it a lot. Part of me wishes that I'd never discovered the concept of fandom, and tinhatting, and slash, because I hate feeling like I have to choose between two things I love. I know that slash and church aren't compatible with each other, and that they never have been and mostly likely never will be, so why on earth does slash do nothing but re-affirm my faith in God and love and the beauty of creation? And the other part of me loves fandom for those exact reasons. That part loves the beautifully-written words, the thought-provoking discussions, the music that I discovered through fanmixes.
And what kills me most is that I know I should have a strong opinion on gay rights whether that be with or against my church's doctrine, but I can't for the love of me figure it out. I'm such a hypocrite, and I hate it. I know I'm a terrible person. I know I should do some deep soul-searching, but I'm just so blissfully ignorant at this point. How the hell I'm able to comfortably lead such a contradictory lifestyle I have no idea.
Perhaps I'll go crank up some music and try to distract myself.
