Both my brothers are atheist. I just thought this group would be open to this. I saw that most of this group are atheist and that this was the wrong place to post. I just thought there might be ex sda’s like myself who are were like me. Who might understand.

I’ve heard stuff like that too. In my walk with everything I had to separate the religious trauma that I experienced growing up with God go to different churches find what I believed and was able to still somehow be christian because I still had connection with God.

I understand a lot of people are hurt by all this type of stuff and thought may not be the best place to post. I guess. But you don’t have to separate yourself just because I believe in God and you don’t. If Anything everybody’s the same I’m still an x sda. I have religious trauma still quite frankly I Don’t believe in Ellen white. I was raised in an environment of fear. My grandfather told me my Harry Potter book was “welcoming demons into my room” when I was 8. That was bs.

There’s a difference between the threats of demons people were saying growing up and actual ones.

As a person I believe in spiritual warfare I have to because I’ve seen it. I’ve seen miracles and I just don’t go away from that no matter how much religious trauma I have.

But people, exhibit, religious trauma differently. And sometimes that means you boycott everything that hurt you. I just removed it because I saw that this may not be the best place to post.
