okay,my dad's Cristian too and like that and...i'm not gay but some of my friends are and i refuse to judge them. i know that it's really wierd to be stuck between your religion and the real world but you can only feel how you feel and unless you want to lie to your family you have to just say it. it will be hard and your family will most likely look at you different but...like i siad you can only feel hw you feel. remind your family that you've been through all you have and now you only make decisions when your sure. and be sure. tell them you shouldn't have to choose between your family and love.
but if possible i would wait until you found some one worth it to tell them for.

Being Christian is not an excuse to be anti-gay. Anyway, you need to be honest about who you are. It is nothing to be ashamed of, and neither should they be. We can't control other people's reactions, but give them a chance. They may open their minds and hearts concerning the issue, because of your willingness to come forward. If they do not, it is their loss. Being gay or straight is not a choice that I am aware one can make, but an internal factor, one of many that makes us who we are. Never let someone else's ignorance define how you live your life. Check out this site:[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)

Thats hottible, i'm sure your grandmas & everyone will understand. Christians arn't suppose to be against gays, just against gay marriages. I know that, because i'm christian.
So I would tell them that. If they really care for you, which I think it sounds like they do.. because, there obviously worrying about you, about what type of person you are. So tell them slowly, & just try to make them understand.

I hope I helped (: kbye

When it comes down to it unfortunately alot of people can't help being attracted to the opposite sex. I think your family will be upset at first but in time will learn to accept it. Tell them nd give it time for the news to sink. Be proud of what you are.
