    I’m sorry this has been your experience. For me, religion and spirituality have become some of my most important tools to be grounded in space, time, and community. Rout, spiritually dead rules-following is horrible though. I wish more people had experience of religion that is not that.

      Nah, no need to be sorry, I’m very glad I got away from it. It did absolutely nothing for me, nevermind the fact that it was used to enslave and colonize Afrika, where queerphobia exists in some Afrikan countries even today because of it.

      Nothing good comes from religion that we humans can’t get without it. Morality, community, fellowship, can all exist without religion, without the existence of an imaginary being or a need to attribute it to nature.

      Glad it worked for you tho. 👍🏿

          Sorry, I don’t have patience for theists, let alone someone saying how great it worked for them when I’ve been through years of trauma. You should probably leave me be now.
