Comfort for Leaving the church description
Added 2024-02-15 04:58:48 +0000 UTCThis one means a lot to me because I'm in the process of deconstructing from the Christian church. I've had a lot of religious trauma so I wanted to make an audio to kind of comfort that. I know it's not for everyone, but I know it would have helped me if I found it so hopefully it helps someone else.
THIS VIDEO ISNโT FOR EVERYONE. If you are religious, this video isnโt for you. This is specifically for those who have deconstructed from the church, any established religion, but specifically Christian or Catholic Churches.
It had taken years for you to see the truth. Or, more specifically, to see that there was no Truth. Not like they believed there was, anyway. There wasnโt one objective standard of reality. Not like you thought. You werenโt โrightโ. You didnโt hold the key to salvation.
It was a hard come to terms with it. Everything you knew, everything youโd been taughtโฆ all lies. But not really lies. Is it really a lie if the teller believes it so firmly?
Leaving had cost you everything. You were outcast from your family, your friends. Everyone looked at you and instead of seeing who you really were, they only thing they saw was a prodigal child.
Still, you wouldnโt go back for anything. You were free now. Free to be yourself. Free to make your own decisions without fear of eternal damnation. Free from a manipulative church, a manipulative god.
