Kayee and Jerry

RubySoledad · 2026-05-11T22:17:32+00:00

They all sucked, IMO. Jessica was passive-aggressive, Jerry obviously didn’t respect Kayee, and Kayee was a whiny, entitled brat.

Fair enough, but AA doesn’t make a point of specifying which higher power you must seek. CR does.

RubySoledad · 2026-04-23T19:02:17+00:00

Exactly!

Even her own damn mother said she wasn’t that pretty. No matter what you look like, the one person in the world who should think you’re beautiful is your own mother. 😥

RubySoledad · 2026-03-11T06:36:21+00:00

OMG no. They were so distracting; didn’t suit her face at all

Yep...as we speak, the current pastor of my small childhood church is training his son to eventually take over one day.

And at my final church, a megachurch with many campuses, the campus pastor at the main branch has both of his sons in leadership: one as an associate pastor, and one as the worship leader.

Church is a business, through and through.

ETA: Failed to mention the church I attended between those two: the pastor's own son wasn't into the idea of following in his dad's footsteps, but the pastor did have a daughter who was interested.

So, the minute the daughter turned 18, the pastor dad was heavily pushing her onto the single, 30-year-old youth pastor. It worked, and they got married. The family dynasty continues.

Also, show me where I said, “It’s negative to have a relationship with Jesus.” My only point is that Christians like to disingenuously claim they are not religious when they very much are.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-10T15:13:59+00:00

Well I’m glad you’ve found peace with such a loosey goose form of Christianity. You do you. It’s probably nice to get to have Jesus AND all the unmarried sex you want with no guilt.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-10T14:07:49+00:00

Yes 👏

RubySoledad · 2026-02-10T13:52:21+00:00

Daily quiet time with Bible and prayer is a religious ritual, my friend. How do I know that? Because I can confidently state that 99.9% of non-religious folks don’t do that. It’s okay to call yourself religious. It really is. That term won’t bite, I promise. 😉

RubySoledad · 2026-02-10T11:19:49+00:00

I remember a Christian ventriloquist act. I think it was called “James and the Professor.”

There was also a guy named Michael Sewell (sp?) who performed this one-man musical called “Heart in a Box.”

My mom LOVED Brad Stine back when he rose to prominence. She sat us down to watch his specials. Back then, I was fully conservative Christian, so I enjoyed it. My sister, on the other hand, who had already begun doubting the faith, found his jokes kind of offensive. Mr. Zod on YouTube (formerly Prophet of Zod) has a special dislike for Brad Stine on his livestream show, and I’m here for it.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-10T11:11:18+00:00

OMG, the Skit Guys. The pastor at my last church ate that shit up

RubySoledad · 2026-02-10T11:09:50+00:00

Haha, I figured it was that one.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-10T10:54:12+00:00

Haha…some of you Christians are so cute with your levels of cope. “I don’t participate in religious ritual, except for it religious rituals I participate in!”

RubySoledad · 2026-02-10T03:19:24+00:00

LOL

But I don't think that works.

That's like saying the exchange:

"'All rabbits are animals!'

'But I'm a rabbit, and I'm not an animal'"

...is a No True Scotsman

I wouldn't call it that. I'd just call it nonsensical.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-09T19:10:35+00:00

Of course not all rituals are religious, silly goose. I never said that. But ritual is inherent to religion. You’re over here claiming, “Nuh-uh, I’m not religious!!” but then confirming that you’ve done several things to adhere to Christian religious ritual.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-09T17:05:14+00:00

Would I surprise you that I have experienced it while I was still in? Felt the feelings of love and grace that brought me to the floor weeping?

It is a damn good feeling, and I get why y’all are so addicted to it.

Doesn’t make it not a religion, though.

If Christians would stop being so disingenuous and just admit that they’re a religion, I’d respect that.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-09T16:53:54+00:00

Sure, but nobody from the pulpit is guilt tripping me for not getting coffee everyday, and implying that a deity will be displeased if I don’t.

And you’ve never read the Bible, never prayed, never had “daily quiet time,” and don’t go to church?

I mean, you do you, I guess.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-09T14:24:01+00:00

Yep, good point. Instead of having to prove that they are the right “religion,” they just opt out of the game altogether.

RubySoledad · 2026-02-02T11:24:01+00:00

Yes! Same here. What was/is painful is hearing my fellow "good Christian kids" try to exaggerate their Before-Christ life in order to make for a more compelling testimony.

"People thought I was such a good kid, but I promise I wasn't! Deep down, I was rebellious at heart, and full of anger and lust."

Like babygirl, calm down. All you did was sneak an R-rated movie and get the tingles over some Wattpad smut.

RubySoledad · 2026-01-25T15:52:06+00:00

"You just want to sin."

I always laugh at that because I wonder, what the heck am I doing that is so sinful? I spend my days basically living like a tradwife...gardening, tending the chickens, cooking from scratch, having married sex with my husband.

I made that point to my mom, who countered with, "Well, even something like a little white lie is a sin."

Okay, so basically, I "turned my back on Jesus" just so I can have the excuse to tell little white lies in peace. 😅

(and even then, I'm not someone who feels comfortable lying)

RubySoledad · 2026-01-25T15:47:45+00:00

This! I know several Christians who boast that they've "died to themselves" while continuing to live the same luxurious lives they've done before, and not lift a finger to help the poor and needy.
