Welcome to /c/Gay - Your LGBTQ+ Haven

We're more than just a community; we're your haven for celebrating LGBTQ+ culture and connecting with like-minded individuals.

Our Partnered Discord Server: GayWave

Community Rules:

~ 1. No bigotry. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person. This includes speculating about someones sexuality, no matter how "obvious" it may be.

~ 4. Keep it LGBTQ+ related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love posts but 3-4 in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

With what baptism represents and is, I dont think you can do one falsely...? Like, it's washing away your sins so even if your intentions were a sin, after the baptism you're clean. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

It just feels a bit dishonest though, like... A bit sneaky? A little bit "disrespectful" or maybe blasphemous? To be clear, I'm not saying I think the op is a bad person it's really not that deep I don't believe in this stuff - but in the world of Christianity, it seems like it would be like... Naughty to go get baptised just for lustful reasons? ๐Ÿ˜‚
