I am attracted to women (I am a girl), and my Parents have always told me that being Gay is wrong. Some Guys are hot, but I am not sexually attracted to them. I am a Christian but I want to believe that God would be okay with me being gay?

If God is real, in the Bible, doesn't it say that He forgives all men?  That was the reason that Jesus was born.  To erase all sins that mankind had brought upon themselves.  Because God loves us all and He gave us free will, I believe that it is not a sin, or a crime to be gay, or lesbian, or bisexual.  

Some people use God against us to make us feel bad about ourselves, when, really, God doesn't mind.

I have a friend in a very similar situation to you, and if she asked me about this, I would say this: If being gay is a sin, why did god make us with the capacity to be gay? To me, that shows that he must be okay with it, otherwise he wouldnt have made it possible.

Many Chirstian denominations are becoming more open and accepting of the LGBTQ+ community.  These denominations usually believe that being gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, pansexual, asexual, ect... Is part of how you were created and, like the Bible says, you were made his His (God's) image.

It's perfectly fine to not be straight--lots of people aren't straight.  I was raised in a strict, legalistic version of Christianity that believed if you weren't straight you were doing something wrong.  I don't believe that.  I would say when you are old enough to find a church that will accept and love you for who you are.  Until then, remember that these ultra conservative Christians really aren't following the Bible.  After all, the Bible does say not to judge other people or you will be judged and that we are to love each other as God loves each of us.

I would say you can certainly be gay, lesbian, transgendered, pansexual, bisexual, asexual, straight, any sexual orientation and still be a good Christian.
