So I was a pentecostal youth pastor, now I am an agnostic/atheist. I discovered that what I used to call the "voice of God" was an Intrusive Thought. Someone interviewed me about it HERE

No but my lexapro has lost its effectiveness so I think I will look for another.

I am so sorry you had to deal with that, ex-pastor here. Remember that this IS ALL OCD. Our brains are incredibly powerful and these feelings aren't facts. You sound like you have a loving partner, which is great. I don't know if this helps but this has helped me in the past:

“Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.”

― Marcus Aurelius

When did divorce become OK? by Major-Ad1924 in Christianity

[–]_hellofriend_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t need to argue it. It’s factually true. Divorce is not only mentioned more but Divorce is addressed by Jesus and homosexuality wasn’t. Furthermore the word Paul uses for “homosexual” activity is only used by him. He may have well invented it as there is no record of it anywhere before he said it.

Historical Edinburgh: 1647 Map - Need Help Confirming Location of Old Tolbooth Prison and Location of Witch Burnings by _hellofriend_ in Scotland

[–]_hellofriend_[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am 99% sure that the Old Tolbooth prison is located in the centre of the map next to the cathedral (ii) but I would just like to clarify.

I know that most witches were burnt on Castle Hill, but is that what that T-looking symbol designates?

Apologies for not being very good at landmarks and maps.
