That, but also Christianity is not about religion. Religion is the adherence to following rules—God says do this, so you must do it. Christianity is not about that. It’s about having a relationship with God Himself. If you actually do desire a relationship with Him and you told Him so, He will not abandon you. That doesn’t mean you can generally do whatever you please, but it does mean that you’re His child and He will not disown you simply for loving someone of the same gender, regardless of whether or not it’s perceived as wrong.

Jesus himself berated and chastized the Pharisees for making up societal rules that caused a “religious” relationship with God to become moot. Because it’s not simply about following the rules.
