I’m in a awkward position
I believe Christianity is a dangerous neurolinguistic virus that damages the people who believe in it. I wonder often, as I work on removing it from myself, should I be helping my friends who are also infected? And yet, they insist it is a great thing for them. So I don’t. But I know that had I been fully infected I would have insisted the same thing, because of fear of God.
Christianity is based around a threat. The core tenant is, believe.. and profess to believe.. that Jesus died for your sins.. or be tortured for all eternity. That’s a threat.
I could spend days and days listing all the unhealthy, life-denying, insanity-causing beliefs that are part of Christianity, but I won’t bother. It’s been done elsewhere, and better than I ever could. So instead I shall return to my day job.

And yet.. here’s the part that drives me the MOST nuts.. one of my biggest heros, Martin Luther King Jr, WAS A CHRISTIAN.
Maybe I’m just a horrible person?
