      I was put in a pentecostal group home at 12 years of age. Not the kkk, but just as lunatic, with many similarities.
      I saw girls I thought were strong, get fished right into to the sheer insanity. I spent the next 2 years trying to get kicked out. I didn't want to be bad, I didn't want to be in that whackado world and there was no way in hell they would ever convert, subvert or have me accept their nonsense in any way, shape or form, no matter how many bibles classes and sessions they tortured me with.
      This is how I know the whole thing is a crock. I've read it and seen how the clowns who worship it, act. I'd rather read the Brothers Grimm, they have way better stories. And they're not pretending to be something they're not.

      It's satire that's the point. It's a systemic problem the USA already has. "Other countries" have been trying to warn you peeps about that for years because the USA was obviously going to repeat Germany and so many other countries'mistakes - the USA doesn't teach world history only whitewashed "American" history which makes it vulnerable to becoming a nationalist and fascist echo chamber. The USA came dangerously close to losing democracy due to this climate of nationalism making it easily susceptible to a populist leader and Trump is showing no signs of giving up takeover attempts now that he's built up almost unchecked power for years.

      @@lohphat I’m a Wiccan, so I’ve been omitting the words “under God” too for the same reason you did plus the fact that it implies that anyone who doesn’t adhere to a monotheistic religion isn’t a “real American.” We recite it at the beginning of every monthly meeting at the firehouse, and until five or ten years ago it was also followed by the Lord’s Prayer (which I refused to recite since I’m a non-Christian).
      Raising my kids to respect all beliefs meant that I also told them to skip the words “under God” with the Pledge in school. Since we live in a “red” county, that got us into trouble with the schools here, so I developed a work-around and told my kids to say “under gods” instead. Funny how skipping two divisive words gets their shorts in a knot, but the addition of one little sibilant that truly shows respect for ALL Americans regardless of religious belief slides under their radar!

    “Mandatory obedience to a piece of fabric…”. Nailed it! I remember back in the “olden days” of my youth (the 60’s), there was a Christian classmate who refused to recite the pledge because it was in violation of one of the Ten Commandments… something about “having no other gods before Me…”. Clearly, he was the only student to actually consider the meaning behind the pledge rather than just rote recitation to avoid punishment.

      You keep telling yourself that all people in a group are exactly the same. Don't know if you realize it or not, so I'll point it out..... Categorizing an entire group based on your limited interaction with a very small percentage, is the very definition of racist mentality. While the mentality is defintitely there, doesn't necessarily make you a racist, but it does show that the perpensity is there. It still makes you prejudgmental. With all this going on on, you forgot to remove your Biden blinders and didn't even notice that people like you are exsctly what's wrong with this country. " They didn't vote the same as I did. So they must all think the exact same things, and live the exact same way, since I dissagree with them. I can't believe how horrible they are "
      For the record, this has nothing to do with Democrat or republican, because people like that exist on both sides. This has to do with ignorance and lack of education.

      @@averagefanenjoyer8696 No. The Soviet influx and absorption of the Baltic States, Poland, occupation of Berlin/East Germany, was direct response to Truman's threats and demonstration of nukes upon Japan. Again, where Japan surrendered days after Soviet troops invaded China and Korea in small force, as their Western front troops massed in Siberia to invade Japan. The Japanese had no interest in the Soviets slaughtering them, where the Americans would negotiate. In fact, Potsdam and Yalta were where negotiations were made of post war. Churchill even acknowledged post war agreements. The Truman doctrine is what killed post war agreements of Roosevelt which included financial assistance to the Soviets, just as the US had done during the war. If Henry Wallace were not forced out of VP by corporate democrats, we'd live in a much different world today. BTW, if you wonder why many Russians do not trust Americans, this is it..... That and we silently supported the Czar, along with Crown of England, during the Revolution.

      Even as a kid, the idea made absolutely no sense to me. If God were a sadistic human father from a dysfunctional family, I guess this would be possible... but even then, why torment the "golden child" to feel better? Abusive parents always punish the "scapegoat" children instead, projecting all their shadow aspects on those kids and punishing them for their supposed flaws. The whole idea of a vengeful god who can only harm his favorite child to feel better is truly bizarre, and it also doesn't fit with Jesus's reference to God as "papa" who loves everyone. The Old Testament "god" and the New Testament "god" seem to be entirely different beings, when you read the details. The OT god at one point even told soldiers to bash the heads of the babies against the walls of villages they were ordered to slaughter en mass. Several gnostic sects concluded the OT god must have been an evil demiurge (a kind of lesser god) - after all, it apparently required blood sacrifices, which it demanded as a sign of repenting from breaking its rules. People into dark magic report that lower vibrational beings from other dimensions do feed on life force energy from blood sacrifices and murdered animals or people, so one has to wonder what all that was about. Going within to get in touch with the highest ultimate reality, I personally find a loving energy, not a murderous bloodthirsty one. So the crucifixion as a required repayment doesn't add up at all, not even acording to Jesus's theology of God as a loving consciousness.

    Thank you for calling out looks-based bullying in Christian classrooms. You have no idea how healing that was for me to hear. I begged my parents to send me to public school, but they refused. At least if the bullying had happened there instead, I wouldn't have associated it with the whole "Gods Love" concept. As it was, I was convinced I wasn't worth anything, because Christians (of any age) hated me. I figured that "God" hated me too. I first thought of suicide in 3rd grade. Wasn't the last time though. It was always "Christians" pushing me to that edge. Never anyone else. In my adult years, I've know a lot of kind, caring, decent non-Christians and only a small few Christians I can say the same thing about. A good 99% of the "Christians" I've known in my adult life were as terrible as the kids I went to school with. If Christians would realize that they aren't any more valuable than anyone else, it would make a massive difference. If they would realize that they aren't always "right" about everything, that would help even more. And they wonder why so many kids come home from "Good Christian" schools and commit suicide... Well, it's not shocking to me. At all.
