I’m going to deviate (no pun intended) away from the subject here just to agree with you about the “religious” comment because, as someone who was pretty much raised in church, I know that a lot of the time “church” hasn’t got a lot to do with God. I’ve been a born-again Believer for 52 years and neither my husband nor I do church anymore. There is no better place for the enemy to infiltrate and, like you, I’ve also suffered harm from “religious” people in church. I’ve come to realize that some churches are very good, but MANY are not and many people in church are not Believers at all. I personally believe much of what we’re going through now is the precursor to a huge shift in the church where God is going to expose the “evil within” and where a true revival will happen where all people - in church and not - are going to see Who God really is, and it will be something that will turn organized “religion” on its ear. What we have now, in most churches, is not what Believers were called to. We’re seeing the hypocritical example of “church” in our leaders today: Biden making a spectacle of going to church like that somehow sanctifies him, and Nancy Pelosi demanding communion in spite of her support of abortion. Rest assured she is bringing damnation on herself by taking the Sacraments when she is blatantly in opposition to the Word of God. She, too, thinks “church” (or especially being Catholic) will save her. It won’t.
Yup. There are definitely instances where churches are used for purposes other than their original purpose. I know not all are bad but too many I've heard the stories about, wanting to make money off of church members. Sometimes people go to church because they think that's all they need to do. I don't believe in god but if I did, I would not feel that a church was needed.
Everything I've ever heard about religion and god makes it seem that it's more or a personal thing which means it's something for each individual person which does not require a church and a preacher influencing the way someone thinks. I believe it is not normal to be a drag queen or transgender as I believe it's caused by mental illness but that is just my belief and my opinion.
I will never judge someone for choosing a lifestyle that I disagree with, I just won't have that person as part of my life. If god is real and if people will be judged for their actions then it really is not our place to attempt to place judgement on those that live lives that we disagree with.
If someone does me wrong, I'm the type of let it go and ignore them because I've seen it happen so many times where karma comes back to wreck their lives. A lot more good than bad happens in my life and I believe it's because I live a good life without any hate towards anyone. I never lie to anyone, I never betray anyone.
I'm one of those people that are loyal in many aspects. If a store treats me good then I'll drive out of my way to shop at that store. The problem I have with people mostly is those that are two faced liars that lie behind your back, will back stab you if it benefits them, and those that try to force their beliefs and opinions onto others.
If someone wants to go to church then that's good if that makes them happy. I could also say if someone wants to pretend to be a woman and get fucked up the ass regularly then if it makes them happy then so be it. I think the big difference there is going to church is harmless to others but gay sex increases the chance of diseases and infections in those taking part in it which could be spread to future partners which can potentially cause harm.
There are some religious people that try to preach to everyone but they're harmless. Then we have the mentally unstable liberals trying to force their beliefs and opinions onto others but they can get crazy and violent when they don't get their way. It's like a lot of liberals are functioning at a child like mentality. Whatever happens in the future, many of us will either be ready for it or will be able to adjust to it but a lot of liberals might really struggle to adjust to any major changes in this world.
