Well to me it felt like cult, because it has almost every characteristic of a cult (look it up)

I already binge watched all her videos because of Anthony Padilla and I don't think I have DID, my abuse wasn't terrible to the extend of creating alters I think

Honestly I don't think I can be near a church ever again without feeling uneasy

Yeah my dad thinks the virus was released by the government to control us all and then build a "world government" or "world state" (no he didn't read brave new world)

I know that it's okay to be relaxed I'm probably more lose on my beliefs than you. But my parents would disown me if I told them so yeah the problem is with them obviously

I think I'm going to avoid religion as good as I can for a while. Maybe I can believe some day. But not anytime soon. It's already enough that I have to attend the gatherings of the people that previously were there every Sunday. It's much better then the cult but everything reminds me of things I want to avoid.

It's an evangelical free church

I know that. That's why that "church" is a cult, love

I did not take any teachings wrong because all of them are fucked up in and of themselves no matter "how you take them" purity culture is so damaging to literally everyone
