WHY FORGIVENESS IS THE F-WORD:
-Hijacked by religion
-Weaponized by abusers to enforce compliance
-Victim blaming "Why can't you just forgive?"
Instead, ACCEPT REALITY by asking:
What happened? Who did it? Is it a pattern?
Then use that knowledge to make appropriate choices - including whether to give the guilty party continued access to your life. #forgiveness #abuse #ReligiousTrauma #wisdom #reality #criticalthinking #exchristian #psychology #counselor

Tfw your mom posts this and you realize you're the crackhead? I guess? Lol. It's a low key #passiveaggressive #shunning i guess.
Well at least maybe she's letting go and not blaming herself. That's the bright side.

What's the worst thing about Christianity? For me, it was the fear it instilled within me of my own mind.

Plagued by unrelenting shame for “normal” activities like masturbation, sex, or enjoying time doing nothing? SHAME IS OFTEN FUNDAMENTALIST RESIDUE. Wipe that sh!t off your shoe and give FREEDOM a try. Start small & work your way up to Big Ticket items. Life is a grand buffet - don’t starve to death because of religion. #ReligiousTrauma #shame #fundamentalism #suffering #freedom #humanism #joy #exchristian #explore

@slashdottir I think trying to take parts from other religions and make them fit together, with a dash of your own ideas, is a good net step in realizing what your beliefs are.
I tried all the "what religion should you follow" quizzes and got different answers from each one. I eventually just decided that I'm Agnostic.
Christians are so certain about judgment and eternity despite lack of evidence. They posture themselves as magical soothsayers because it grants them a semblance of control where none exists. Fear of reality prevents them from listening to or accepting logical reasoning.
