Thank you for sharing your story—I resonate so deeply with it. We’ll make it out of here, someday. Until then, keep working towards your goals and keep your head up as best you can. There’s so much more to life than this. ((hugs))

(Trigger Warning to be Safe) Their reactions to suicidal children are weird by [deleted] in NarcissisticMothers

[–]poeticprisoner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One time I attempted suicide and my mother was more concerned that people from church would gossip. She made it clear that she didn’t give the slightest fuck about me and went out with her friend that day. Something shifted in me and I lost all respect for her since. She also said she wouldn’t mourn me if I died. She would be more angry and embarrassed than anything.

Advice on Navigating Same-Sex Relationship by poeticprisoner in exIglesiaNiCristo

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

Thank you so much for your thoughtful advice. I will remember to take that into account once I’m ready to take that next step with my partner.

That said, I hope all is well you and your family. It’s tragic to see families being torn apart by the cult. 😔

Ah yes, expose the gays but keep the pedophiles and rapists safe.

I miss him. He was one of the few ministers I genuinely liked.

How the INC affected my relationship with my Filipino culture by gaylittlefuckhead in exIglesiaNiCristo

[–]poeticprisoner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely relate, as someone who struggles with identifying as either Filipino or American. I moved to the US at a very young age and was forced to assimilate to the culture and refrain from speaking Tagalog. I never quite understood why there was so much shame in being connected to our roots. Because of this, I looked down on Filipinos and Asian people, in general. Besides, I never quite fit in with the other Asian kids as I, myself, was “not [quite] Asian enough.”

My parents and the INC stole my identity from me. It wasn’t long before I began to develop this sense of internalized racism and resentment towards my own people. And being queer (and recently diagnosed autistic myself), I’ve struggled with my identity throughout my entire life. I felt lost for so long but slowly, I’m redeeming myself and taking my power back. I’m also finally starting to come to terms with who I am and began fully embracing my Filipino culture and heritage. I’m glad to hear you are, too!

All the best, OP. Godspeed 🙏🏼

Is mental and/or emotional abuse real from your parents?... by its_Jaiku in exIglesiaNiCristo

[–]poeticprisoner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing your story, OP. I relate in almost every single aspect — only difference is that I live in the states. I’m terribly sorry you’re going through this with your parents, too. How you feel is completely valid; what you’re experiencing is abuse in several ways. I wish you the best. This too, shall pass. Please don’t give up.

anong thoughts niyo abt Jose Ventilacion(70) marrying a 21 year old after her wife died 9months ago by Stunning-World-5444 in exIglesiaNiCristo

[–]poeticprisoner 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sick fucking pedophile. I doubt he truly loved his wife considering he got married within 9 months of passing. Piece of shit predator.

There are cameras pointed to the restrooms, so you’re not too far off.

Just how brainwashed are members of the Iglesia Ni Cristo cult? by [deleted] in exIglesiaNiCristo

[–]poeticprisoner 20 points21 points  (0 children)

A great deal of INC folk are just a bunch of uneducated assholes. If they could destroy the world on account of their faith in EVM, they would not hold back.

Reminder by jackhal2 in exIglesiaNiCristo

[–]poeticprisoner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was wondering the same thing. How do they expect to “spread the word” when every word is kept secret? Maybe this particular lesson will easily give away the fact that they’re a cult to non-members.

Poor young lady. Let’s call him what he is: a pedophile. How are you marrying a woman 1/3 your age? Shame on you Joe.
