Christian beliefs. What should I do? I'm a 15 year old straight girl. My mom died six months ago, my dad abandoned me before I was even born and the only relative I had left to live with is my uncle Eugene. He was my mom's only brother and he's homosexual. I do feel bad that my family casted him away when he came out of the closet 20-something years ago. My grandparents died wanting nothing to do with him, my mother wanted nothing to do with him and she kept me away from what she called "that filthy sinner". I never got to know my uncle until my mom died. My uncle came to the funeral devastated that he couldn't make peace with his only sister before she died. He didn't have the heart to let me be put in a group home, so I went to live with him and his gay lover.
I don't hate homosexuals but my strong Christian faith makes me not understand their lifestyles. Their open display of affection is a bit disturbing. I want a relationship with my uncle. His lover seems nice too. But they keep calling my bible and faith a "bunch of lies". They hate that I don't like their lifestyle. I don't understand it but I do like them as individuals. I just don't agree with their choice. Still and all, I will say that it was a bit cruel of my family to disown my uncle. Family is family no matter what. What should I do?
