That describes christainity to an tee. I'm so glad I left it nearly 5 years ago.
what took you so long?
@HippieChick58 being raised in it. If I was introduced to it as an adult I do think it would have stuck. You know the religious want brain wash you why your young. I started to question the bs at 31, but didn't go through with leaving it behind until 10 years later.
@freedom41 I was not immersed in it when I was young, we didn't go to church often. Xian was the default in our small midwestern town. As an adult I got involved in the church, we were a military family and the chapel was welcoming and a good way to make connections for a SAHM with small kids. I saw through the BS after a while and totally left about 10 years ago. As a family we did get some good support from the church, but ex went totally brain dead and he is still ultra conservative xian, the kids mostly turned out non religious.
I thought it said "insanity" when I first read it. The two are kind of interchangeable.
