Making my way through #ForYourOwnGood by Alice Miller and #TheGospelInBrief by Leo Tolstoy.

Miller is harshly illuminating violent fathers, their belief in god-as-father, and their desire for total obedience. Tolstoy is critical of violence, yet his modified gospel still includes a parable where Jesus encourages believers to act like "good slaves" towards the heavenly father. Ick.
