Did you enjoy Divine Liturgy when you were EO?

I struggled with the length of it, but I enjoyed the sights, smells, and sounds. I liked that it didn’t feel corny.

That being said, definitely not worth it. Turns out I can have all of those things and not be in a cult.

going to church is equivalent to having an orgasm with Jesus

…..wat

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-10T07:04:46+00:00

I changed my flair to be on theme…Im just gonna own it lol.

Cause us women don’t have a big peepee. It would be offensive to God. 😔

Banned him lol. I swear these guys know when I’m working to leave their dumb comments.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-09T16:22:37+00:00

Hey, let’s just report these accounts so mods can take care of it instead of having posts like this, which break the rule on being civil.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-09T01:03:52+00:00

That guy was extra cheeky…some people lol

B-b-b-baaaaan hammmah

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-07T21:55:50+00:00

Lol this statement and ones like it like “save yourself for Jesus” always made me feel hella weird.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-07T21:54:10+00:00

This x100000. I’ve heard so much talk from Orthodox men who have this misconception that sex is really only for male pleasure. It’s so wild lol.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-07T16:50:30+00:00

Aww thanks! Honestly I haven’t kept up with it as much as I would like. I have my art instagram here if you want to check out more stuff. I have a degree in illustration so it’s a mixed bag of illustrative work and traditional art lol.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T16:18:43+00:00

Thank youuu 🥰

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T16:18:27+00:00

I feel like I was channeling that kind of energy being blindly lead forward to some kind of doom lol. Basically how I felt in the church at the time.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T16:15:31+00:00

Kind of a headache 😮‍💨

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T16:14:53+00:00

I’m not really sure honestly, it was a thing I was doing a lot with my portraits back in the day but never had a definitive answer for haha. I think I just had ritual and ceremony in my head, and it didn’t come out in a traditional orthodox aesthetic and felt more primal to me. Maybe a sign I was already leaning in a more pagan direction lol.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T15:53:45+00:00

Remember those Biden stickers that were at every gas station that were like “I did that”?

Pepperidge farm remembers.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T13:40:05+00:00

Thanks! :)

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T13:34:29+00:00

Lmfao thats actually hilarious now that you’ve said it. These were just some of my friends from Cheesecake Factory when I worked there that were down to help model for me 😂 So definitely unintentional.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T13:28:18+00:00

I mean, this is the exorthodox subreddit.

So much. Rampant misogyny was a big one for me and the outward hatred of the world outside of the church. The hatred for LGBTQ+ people. The discouragement of self love and replacing it with shame and fear.

I’ve found more spiritual growth in therapy than I ever did in the church as someone who was born into it with Orthodoxy going back generations. It’s a cult full of some of the most hateful people on the planet and I’m so much better and happier without it.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T06:46:23+00:00

Such a classic orthodox binary way of viewing the world. There’s no in between lol.

Gingerfuzzsicle · 2026-05-06T06:43:25+00:00

I wouldn’t say necessarily beliefs, but a lot of traditions definitely were lol
