You just written the story of my life, I am a lesbian and my family is religious too ,i will not lie, I am religious too and I love god ,and I feel guilty because I am gay ,you may not like my answer but the reality is that there is no way to deal with your homophobic family ,my family didn't support me,and I never told my mom about being a lesbian because I know that she will not support me too ,the only advise that I can give you ,is that you have to focus on your life ,one day you are going to move from your family house and have your own life ,just leave everything behind and focus on your life! I know it is hard but that's life! Beside ,you don't need to tell your family that you are gay!
If you choose to tell them then be ready for the consequences! Good luck!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
