Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475-1564) was an Italian painter and sculptor, one of the greatest of the Renaissance and a devout Catholic. His full name was Michelangelo di Lodovico Buonarroti Simoni.

He sculpted the Pieta showing the Virgin Mary cradling the crucified corpse of her son Jesus and, his most famous work, a larger-than-life nude statue of young David holding the sling he'd just killed Goliath with. At the tomb of Julius II in the church of San Pietro in Vincoli, stand Michelangelo's famous statues of Moses, Rachel and Leah.

If you think you might be gay, there is nothing wrong with that. Most scientist these days believe you were probably born that way. Your parents and your church will try to tell you that you are a sinner for being gay. You are not. Especially if you were home-schooled, you will have never heard any information about gay people except what your parents and church told you. God loves all human beings—even the gay ones.

He also painted at the Sistine Chapel "The Last Judgement" and the "The Creation" (The ceiling of the Sistine Chapel (1509-1512), and many other works of art. Michelangelo also designed the dome of St. Peter's Basilica.
