You must stop Googling "sin" and "hell," and stay away from fundamentalist Web
sites.  Why torture yourself?  See if there are any atheist, humanist, or
freethought groups in your community; they can help you deal with social
surroundings that condemn you for who you are.

Do you have a fundamentalist Christian background?  You might want to contact
Dr. Marlene Winell (http://journeyfree.org/).  I don't know if she knows of any
resources in Germany, but it's worth a try.
