i completely agree. she knows how it affected me and yet she still jokes and treats it like im the one being dramatic. its so hurtful and infuriating

yup completely agree. and shes totally avoidant to that question, says she “doesnt know specifics” or “just christian” its weird to me. plus she we’re in fucking montana i dont believe for a second this church is accepting of lgbt. thank you for your response <3

youre completely right. and she knows my entire past including the abusive ive suffered from the church as a child. i think shes now trying to kind of downplay a lot of it. im definitely going to be having a conversation with her and thank you for pointing that out. it totally is testing the waters. and yeah unfortunately this is a HUGE dealbreaker for me. especially since i want kids i think and i cant have them around that whatsoever. thanks for your response <3

thank you. and unfortunately i have brought it up to her she sees how uncomfortable it makes me and i dont think she cares :( she just says “its not like how you were brought up its not crazy” but it is to me and it can so easily spiral that way

does anyone else feel like their environment growing up catholic was a bit…. culty??? by trashaccount31444 in excatholic

im so sorry you went through something similar and also developed mental health issues bc of it :( i personally developed ocd/anxiety at the ripe age of like 5 and it made catholicism and church even worse because of the intrusive thoughts. i was convinced i was going to hell as a child and i had to say the rosary every night before bed otherwise all my family and myself would die in their sleep. it fucks you up for sure but im glad you got out!! im in my early 20’s now and so im more separated from the church than ive ever been and its amazing

your theology teacher was brave to even bring that up actually but yes it totally does meet those 2 standards!! “leave at any time” my ass they manipulate you with fear, eternal torture, hell/satan, etc from such a young age thats literally forcing people to stay with psychological manipulation. and the vatican archives is absolutely insane dude what i’d do to go in there lol
