Open Question: How to deal with my church's views on homosexuality?

Open Question: How to deal with my church's views on homosexuality?
I’m 13 (soon to be 14) year old girl and my parents have been making me go to church for over 2 years now. We all used to be atheists and my mom and dad converted to Christianity. I’m still an atheist. Every now and then, they try to get me to pray and read the Bible but they don’t try to force the religion down my throat like they used to.
The church we go to is Spanish and I am SO thankful that I can’t understand the stuff they say in there, because I would go all out. I love the people at my church but I can’t stand what they say about homosexuality and transgendered people. I’m straight, but I support LGBT completely.
Although it is Spanish, my parents like to go over with me what they heard in church. They said homosexuality is wrong and those who are gay will not ‘enter the gates of heaven’. When I disagree with this statement or get upset, they say “why does that upset you? Are YOU gay?”. Its all just very upsetting.
How would you deal with something like this?

Open Question: Why are Gay men always get bullied, but lesbians have it easier?

Open Question: Why are Gay men always get bullied, but lesbians have it easier?
Its pretty obvious gay bullying is a problem in this country and always had, but ive noticed that the victims of it always happen to be the Male homosexuals. theyve put up many times with getting teased, being called the ‘F” word, beat up by gangs, pushed into commiting suicide, hell there was even a case where a guy got BATTERIES rammed down his throat for being gay!
But for Lesbians, they never seem to have any backlash from society. if a girls a lesbian at school then classmates will just see her differenttly, respect it & move on. nothing wrong with it of course but mostly likely if a man even LOOKS like hes gay in that situation everyone will think hes Weird & call him names. the worst lesbians probably had was stereotyping but thats about it. they even get praise when they have a video of themselves making out with each other.
and please note this is not a LGBT support post in general, just something ive noticed in society.

Adele Teases New Track During UK X Factor Broadcast: LISTEN

Adele Teases New Track During UK X Factor Broadcast: LISTEN

Viewers watching UK’s X Factor were treated to a short tease of what is widely believed to be the first new music from Adele since 2012’s “Skyfall”. Her third studio album is rumored to be released in November.

The 30-second spot featured nothing more than a black screen with a lyric:  “HELLO / It’s me / I was wondering if after all these years you’d like to meet / To go over / everything / they say that time’s supposed to heal ya / but I ain’t done much healing.”

Adele reportedly collaborated on the album with Danger Mouse, Max Martin, and Ryan Tedder (One Republic).

Shortly after the UK promo aired. The One Republic Twitter account pretty much confirmed what had been heard:

Adele :)
