My parents have always been religious. All of my friends know that I'm gay but I don't know what my parents will think or how to tell them. I really want to, but I can't and when I think about this I feel like such a coward and just not normal.
Your parents already lived their lives now u must live yours. Tell them it will all be ok, weather they accept it or not its you that has to be happy.
I think it's normal to be scared. You say that they are "religious", then maybe you should wait until you've moved out or have some kind of back up. I've read many stories where young people came out to their families and were kicked out or nearly beaten to death. In terms of my sexuality, some of my friends know but none of my family knows. Most of my family is religious so god only knows what would happen if I ever came out to them... It's a shame that a large part of society is homophobic and what not. You'd think that by now society would have evolved beyond such stupidity.
Eh I hate that this is even a concern for anyone, I feel for you. I can't say anything more other than this shouldn't be an issue, I hate that it is.
Keep it in the closet...

"there's something about You baby that makes me want to give it to you"
You're quite in an awkward position. Try to tell them anyway, hope that they respond well. Youre their child. Furthermore, if you tell them now, you will have cleared your mind of this issue.
My sistr livd wiv her dad and when she cam ouut and told him he threw her out but my mum took hr in again my dad is catholic unlike hers and he sais he will otally respect my decision no matter what sexuality y u shud b ok
If I was gay, my dad would probably kill me with a knife, so being afraid of that seems reasonable, but, have there been clues to them that you may be? Because...I haven't met a gay person in my life that wasn't obviously, definitely gay, or at least, probably gay, in stance, things they say, how they walk etc.
I still haven't told my parents. I can't stand either one of them, even refuse to call my father by anything but his first name, but I still fear how they'll view me if they knew. o.O
I know someone who got kicked out when he told his parents he was gay, this is a problem. I really, really hate that it is the way it is, and I'm sorry you're in this situation. However, if it makes you feel any better, when my best friend told his parents, they were fine with it. More than fine actually, but I'll not get into that, ha:P.
So, it really just depends on your parents. Another friend of mine hasn't even told his parents, and it's been 3 years. I can't help but think his parents would be more upset that they were the last to know rather than because he's gay. Just something to consider. Good luck:).
I would imagine it would be a hard thing to do. You just have to be who you are if you want to be happy in this life.
