Enlightenment, spirituality, faith — there’s nothing wrong with these things.

Organized Christianity is a social climbing scheme for people who desperately want to get away with never needing to truly outgrow their dysfunction. That’s why organized Christianity is popular with bigots, abusers, and people who hate the mirror.

      It substitutes decisions made from best judgement to decisions made from a myth based on ancient mysticism and a canonization process decided upon by a bunch of people born hundreds of years after materials were written. No one who is a supposed Christian is making moral judgements or bashing their life and lifestyle on anything besides a group consensus and a charismatic, designated thinker.

      It erases a person, especially in first world white churches. POC Churches function as a local government in many ways, which shifts the brutality of social climbing based on popularity and conformity to principles that are ultimately based in hate. It subjugates the person until they want their enemies to die in eternal hellfire. It’s sick.
