Christian life

I was years ago during my high school years what some would call a "jesus freak". I was never interested in church growing up but in high school I met this boy who was so sure of his love for god. He wanted to be a preacher and he just had this sort of light that shown. He made you want to know more and to find the kind of peace he had. Well I atteneded church and bible groups about 4 days a week. I was taught to preach and basically force people into church. I said horrible things about gays I had met. I barely spoke to my father cause he didn't understand my need to go to church. I pretty much only hung out with other teens from church and youth leaders. Well to make a long story short that young man who introduced me to church also introduced me a woman 17 years older then us who had a child. He said she was a woman strong in faith and that she needed some people in her life. I felt so strongly for this boy and god that I welcomed her to are church family. One day right after we turned 17 he took us out to dinner and afterwards she drove me home on the way she told me she was seeing him and they were in love. That god had spoke to them and they were ment to be together. I was floored he was 17 and she 34. After that I felt betrayed and questioned how people really were behind my back. I guess really my heart eas broken. Now this man is married to her has 4 kids and is not a preacher. But I want to know how to find christians to talk to who are not going to tell me to hate gays,jews and liberals. I want to be able to listen to secular music,watch movies and even drink a martini with tom my gay friend without judgement. Ya know? sorry this bog was so long just has a lot on my mind when it came to this.

I went through a short similar experience when I was younger and this is my point of view.
Stay away from religion, it's man made and was created for control.
It promotes tunnel vision and stunts your true spiritual growth. It also creates conflicts with your fellow man.

Begin the spiritual path within yourself as we are all children of our maker, we are all connected no matter how damaged the cord. You will start to really see and understand Christ's true message and your maker will teach you through dreams and experiences.

You will no longer judge anyone as they are also an expression of the creator. Everything that exists is an expression of the creator for nothing exists without him. We are all living and learning and we choose our paths as we do our education. There is a reason for everything. Enjoy your life and do everything in moderation and do the things that you feel are within your best interest. If you make a mistake, learn from it. Advise others but let them choose their own path and let them learn without judgment. As you grow you will know what is good for you and what is not and you will not confuse them with what is good or not for others. You will find that you will live more harmoniously with your creator and fellow man.

As the previous poster wrote "it's a person thing"
