Hey, so I believe in a higher power but I’m not on board with any particular religion. Anyone else think it’s cool to just fly solo as a good human, no religion attached?

    I was raised in a very religious family. It’s very hard to break free but I have decided to go on my own path.

      I trust you’ll find it a healing process. Most importantly, be patient with yourself.

          According to my perspective, having autonomy is core to being human and most religious structures actively work to squash autonomy and force conformity. I think that is harmful for everyone.

          For me, it’s taken time to even recognize how hurt I was and I’m still going through a healing process.

          There is significant propability by just beeing here that you were hurt in the past and you didn’t heal properly. First step before acknowledging the pain is to go to a safe place, where there are no toxic people and where your basic needs are met. Hurt people are like magnet for toxic people, and hurt people are comforted by familiarity of toxicity.

          I am just guessing here.
