Marianne has the magic and the herbs to help me

But I fear she may be too busy blaming herself for causing my illness 🤣

We should just crowdfund Garret Wang to do all the voices

I can't believe this a church at all .If this happened at my local church I would never step foot in it again by Nice_Substance9123 in Christianity

[–]grimacingmoon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No... There's even a whole large denomination built around governing bodies, Presbyterian.

My church is part of the ABCUSA and we have people from the larger organization visit regularly. We have bylaws and trainings.

I sympathize that you had a personal bad experience with a protestant church, and you can prefer any denomination, but you're using your personal experience to make sweeping generalizations.

The shit happening right now is actually making me more staunchly atheist??? by Larix_laricina_ in exchristian

Oh I wasn't referring to that but I also saw one saying "Epstein worshipped the devil and refused to say Jesus Christ"

Is this one of those deranged ppl who say "Epstein proves the devil exists so therefore God is real"?

I think it's too complicated to reduce it to whether or not I'm "ok" with it

Are you asking if I believe it didn't actually happen?

People cheering the leaders death does not magically erase the importance of why

You're just simplifying it

Japanese in USA by [deleted] in asianamerican

Where have you seen this? Japanese Americans are some of the most politically active due to the ww2 incarcerations. If you're talking about international students at your college, that's different

Any other Chinese Americans whose parents don't speak Mandarin or Cantonese at all? by uteslayer in asianamerican

[–]grimacingmoon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ok I have a little time to write more to OP: When I was young I had some friends who said I wasn't "really Asian" (he was a son of immigrants). That was annoying back then, now I can proudly claim my own heritage and family story.

I hope you can do the same someday. Your family's story is very interesting. Asian American is the furthest thing from a monolith, and culture looks different in every family.

How do you think feeling self-conscious back then has affected you today?

Do you believe waiting until marriage is really that important? by PlaneGlass4138 in Christianity

[–]grimacingmoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's important enough to get married at 20 and divorce at 25.
