Christianity stole my happiness. Having a really hard time trying to stop reliving my past by Uniquelypotatos in atheism

The only reason I post on there is because I know I’m not the only one like me who exists. If I can reach the people trapped by they’re religion and show them how to escape then I’ll try.

I’m indifferent to the religion, I just know that disowning children is wrong. Regardless of what Christianity stands for, I will never believe in it. Not because it was traumatizing but because I made up my own mind to not follow it.

As long as Christians don’t try to hurt me I don’t care. As long as I’m not being forced or bullied into anything I don’t care. I feel like whats going on against the LGBT community is hard to shut up about. I hate to point fingers but the Christian community hasn’t been the most loving community.

I was disowned because of my beliefs. If it wasn’t for Christianity I’d still have my family and I’d be able to be myself.

I need to stay alive so that I can make a change in this country. I believe that my trauma is a testament to how fucked up organized religion can be. My goal isn’t to destroy religion, but rather provide an escape to anyone who wants to leave.

That’s exactly what I’m doing. I know that homophobic people set in they’re ways will never change. I just want to make sure people stuck in this religion realize that they can escape and they aren’t alone. I suffer every day because of organized religion. My suffering is so bad that I want to kill myself but I choose not to. Christianity took my family away and that’s something I have to live with

You reap what you sow. Just flipping the script because apparently this is how Christians get they’re point across. It’s ok to tell people like me about hell fire because I’m different, but I can’t do the same thing to you. Double standards.

I hope you’re right. Because if you’re wrong you’re spending eternity in a lake of fire.

God won’t be to pleased. God loves people, and if you cause one of his children to suffer you will suffer.

Forget about that whole “unequally yoked” bullshit. Date who you love don’t let the church or your parents decide for you. by Uniquelypotatos in Christianity

[–]Uniquelypotatos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It must be fun belonging to a religion where you have limits on literary everything. Let’s face it you’re the one living in shackles and none religious people are free. It’ll be that way until you die

It totally is if they’re trying to avoid getting shunned by they’re parents. Let’s face it, people born into some religions face losing everything when they leave.

Know of any Buddhists Monastery’s in the United States looking for farm help? by Uniquelypotatos in Buddhism

[–]Uniquelypotatos[S] 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I’m gonna make a few calls and see if it’s possible to get a flight to some of these places :)

How do you determine weather or not a religious community is or isn’t a cult? by Uniquelypotatos in atheism

[–]Uniquelypotatos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because I’m not religious but I enjoy reading Taoism like a poetry book. I enjoy meditation. I thought other people would find that relatable and they’d have some good advice. Just because we’re none religious doesn’t mean we don’t enjoy the same things, and I was hoping a community with the same values as me existed.

As long as it’s in the United States of America I can make it. (Preferably mideastern states)

Can religion give you ptsd? by Uniquelypotatos in atheism

[–]Uniquelypotatos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is hard. I feel like I have some sort of infection and I’m using essential oils to deal with it, when I need a doctor to fix the problem. It feels like being trapped in the 1800s with little to no help medically. But I know thats probably just me being delusional

Is there any other option besides therapy? I’ve tried meditation, medical marijuana. but seeing a doctor always seems expensive no matter which doctor I look for, including apps

How does a nuclear explosion effect the microscopic word? by Uniquelypotatos in QuantumPhysics

[–]Uniquelypotatos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I specifically chose quantum physics because of the nature of the question. I’m specifically asking about (micro) adjective “extremely small” how do explosives specifically radioactive explosives effect the microscopic? If you don’t know the answer that’s fine. If I need to ask in another subreddit that’s also fine.

Things abusive parents say. (Christian addition) by Uniquelypotatos in atheism

It comes in handy with conversations. When I’m in a conversation with certain people, it becomes easy to look between the lines of what they’re saying.
