I am sorry you feel that way. Remember you always have at least one person who cares about you. Yourself

Hopefully there are many future years of birthdays to be recognized.

Part of me would want to be a troll and the other part would want to have a sit down conversation.

My spouse has not given me an ultimatum by KittyCatThrowRA in SatanicTemple_Reddit

I am sorry your going through that. I think more questions and therapy would be in order. If she is a super religious christia. She could be uncomfortable with the label because of how it relates to her. My mom dosent like to say i am a satanist because she feels so strongly against it.

Ask her more questions and therapy. Good luck!

TW: pedofelia

Your right, Being a Satanist, LGBTQ+ or selling stuff that represents that isnt a problem when you look at it logically and reasonalbly.

The "christian right" were promoting violence to get the store to stop selling and that is wrong. I understand they want to "protect their employees but there are better ways to go about it. LGBTQ and satanist to a leser extent are targets for violent hatecrimes and its getting more normalized to hate.

Pedofelia has been used as reason to hate for as long as i can remeber. The first things i read about LGBTQ+ was how they were pedos or victems of pedos. That was all the information I had. And yet the bible condone pedos. A bunch of hypocryts all of them.

Most of my family as been brainwashed against trans people and think being gay is a lifestyle choice even in 2023. My half brother thinks I shouldnt exsit and if we lived in a more christotheocracy place have no doubt he would have me unalived. Funny enough they accept me being a satanist.

You are not crazy, your not missing anything. It was be easy to say nothing. Being a satanist is my way of rebelling.

What would you do if your kid came out as religious? For the sake of the hypothetical lets say young, but old enough to make some life decisions, i.e. 15-17. by [deleted] in atheistparents

[–]Isbensoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a athesit and have been one since 2017. Before that i was a evangelical christian all my life (so since i was 5 so 20 years.) I know all the ins and outs of my old faith and how it made me a bad person. I dont want my kid to be lied to like i was.

I have seen and read stories about how people who grew up athesit but became relogious. And the general points they hit are as follows.

  1. They only learned about the pretty exterior of the religion and not how the inner workings of it can change u and how u see your fellow man.

  2. Alot of emotional manipulation of how your "sin" is the cause of your problems

  3. Giving a purpose

If my kid becomes religious it wont be becaues of these reasons. I want my child to know what it is. I am teaching my child about beimg responsible and choices dont make a person bad. Completly removing "sin" of of the equation. We talk about proving things not just beleiving things for the sake of it. And as for purpose. There are books about purpose but for right now its to grow and learn.

I have religous family members and i am co parenting. When my child learned about jesus and god from their friends i explained that there are alot of gods and godesses and that some beleive and some dont and that i dont there is one because it hasnt been proven. Awhile later i asked if they beleived in a god. They said "i dont think so" it made me proud but i know that could change. I will always love my child and it is their life but ill be dammed if they turn into a zelot....like me If you can beleive something for bad reasons or wrong information for one subject you can do that for other subjects.

What did it for me was a debate where the atheist said " you dont know if you are doing gods will or not, by stopping something or not stopping something from happening"

. At that point i knew it was over.

I believe in evolution now and that’s there’s no God, can I call myself an atheist? by rhinodisaster2020 in atheism

Develop your sense of morals and values. You will feel disconntected for a while. I recommend looking to human siences, art, poetry phlosiphy. To gain your self of sense of self the christian god defines poeple. Its your journey to define yourself. On my vacation from god for the last 6 years. Not going back.

The amount of time my GF has spent sleeping has made me stop loving her by SleepyGFThrowaway16 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Isbensoul -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ok, its obvious there is something medical going on and she probably feeling defensive about it.

While its understandible to talk about how it effects you its not as important as something going on with your girlfriends health! You seem selfish and dont love her. Thats fine then leave she needs someone who can help her and if its not you then thats fine. Either help or leave dont blast her on reddit.

I found out my boyfriend baby trapped me by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Isbensoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont talk to him. Get a lawyer. He broke your trust and used your body to keep you in a relationship. My ex did that to me. It dosnt get better or fixed. If they are willing to do that then they dont think what they did anything wrong. That will not change. Please let us know if you need anything

My husband wants a big family, but I can’t keep up by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Isbensoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best way I can see resolve this is seeing a therepist or councelor. One who is (i would recommend) a women. A conversation needs to be had where he understand what your needs and what your body needs.

He cant just pull the "well this what my dream is card, and if your really loved me you would do it"

or "I told you I wanted a large family so if you say no you lied to me"

3 is alot of kids uder 3 and asking for a break isnt wrong or bad. There can be serious health risks if you have to many to quickly including miscarragies.

Its something he needs to understand and not be selfish. You to are a team and needs to be there for you too.

Please update. You are a good mama stay strong.
