I read this earlier but couldn't think of one that I know of, but then I just thought have you tried any of the Unitarian churches? I imagine they'd be a good bet.

I often participate a Hindi group that has a raja yoga meditation for gay people 1 day a week. Maybe there is one near you.

Good luck,
Love & light xxx

Even in my area, the VERY religiously conservative US Bible Belt (Louisiana) the Unitarian Church is openly same sex friendly.

Well if it's a belief system you want, you can try anything you like -- a belief system is different from a religion in that it can be entirely experience-based, personal, non-tribal.

But if you want an actual religion try the modern neopaganisms such as Wicca, they seem very gay-friendly as well as xdress-friendly, kink-friendly and generally non-going-to-hell based. :)

LOL..sorry..but isn't that a gay stigma you're carrying? If you weren't gay would it matter anyway? I'd say, just be yourself and like you for who you are and ignore what others think.

Have you tried entering into a class with an outlook of wanting to learn something new? Or are you wanting to go into a class having them tell you what you already know?

no i dont know utah. I'm not sure how geography plays a role in it? What choices you make for your own life are your own business and no one else's. If its a gay-bashing place then they are just small-minded people. So can you move?

Sadly not.... :p i still live with my mom
And more than half the utah population is Mormon, so yes it is a gay bashing state
