I've never been one for labels.

tinkercreek comments on Jan 2, 2021:

It is tricky, and labels can most surely be divisive. When a conversation cannot be rerouted, I like to stay with "your beliefs are different than mine, and I certainly respect them" or something similar. Confrontation is never productive.

tinkercreek comments on Dec 27, 2020:

From years of interviewing and hiring, your application would be tagged to the "never consider" file of a large (albeit religious) organization.

A bit of a rant ahead.

tinkercreek comments on Dec 27, 2020:

You are not wrong on any level, and by your writing you are considerately aware of the feelings of religious friends and family around you. I became aware of the larger worlds of thought and truth in college, specifically through a "World Religions" class at that Lutheran university, which was not their intention. I have realized that being outside of my small, conservative home town community was a huge advantage, and even with that it was many years before I was truly comfortable in breaking from the church. Yes, you will encounter negative reactions from friends and family, but please remember that is about THEM, feeling protective of what they have been taught. Some may change over time, others not, and you can only live your life in YOUR truth, seeking this marvelous community of others who are open to the peaceful lifestyle based on rational thought. I admire you for locating this site and reaching out! We don't consistently discuss dogma, but many of us are happy to support you, and allow you to express your thoughts without judgment. Your clarity and maturity are certainly greater than your years, and stepping away from that bible belt will be a breath of fresh air for you. Cheers, and take good care!

I was raised feeling that my existence is a burden to others.

tinkercreek comments on Dec 15, 2020:

You are wise to look back to your childhood in order to have a more positive adulthood! Your profile mentioned a family LDS background, which is intense at the very least, especially after realizing other truths and information. It's great for you that your girlfriend is clear about her religious needs for future family, which are not likely to change. Close exposure to any religion can trigger all sorts of reactions in 'christian survivors'. As others have said, counseling will be key for your being able to move forward. Best would be to seek a counselor, therapist or psychologist with Family of Origin, Inner Child, family dynamics or other related training & experience. Trust me, the benefits are well worth the time and effort to do this work, and free you to choose and enjoy the happy life you deserve!

tinkercreek comments on Dec 12, 2020:

Pandemic-required isolation has supplied me a little reality buffer, usually easier to rationalize with myself on some level about this. Other times, it just smacks me upside the head, and I don't know what to do or think, how or why to accomplish anything in this void. I don't allow myself to dwell on feeling lonely, as I experienced that more painfully while in an imbalanced relationship. Living on my own is a skill I've gained and am comfortable with. Given that, I miss being able to socialize, dance, hike, and just live more closely to others. This will pass.
