I enjoyed church as a kid because it was the one place they COULDN'T just beat the shit out of me for no reason. But still, the indoctrination, lies, manipulation, twisted fucked up world view, and sexual repression are all things ALSO fucking up my adult life. The abuse abuse was a much harder thing to live through and accepting that recovery is a lifetime process not a goal with a possible ending is fucking horrifying, but you know. They both did register as shit I wish I never went through.
Its not religions fault you had shitty parents
It's a good thing your here to be a piece of shit about it. What would people think if you weren't jumping into people talking about child abuse shitting on their life experience? They might think a religious person could be compassionate and respectful. Good you're here to put a stop to that bullshit.
