Even just telling someone that God is there for you to listen to your problems, or is always kind and loves you unconditionally - that comfort is also evil. All that does is relieve the responsibility that other real human beings have to care about you.
I empathize, some of the crap my mother repeatedly told me, and the stupid tricks she pulled to keep me and my brother frightened of the devil, were child abuse, no ifs or buts about it.
She insisted it was all out of love and fear for our souls, but if a loving god demands a mother mentally damage her children if she loves them, to protect him from what this monstrous deity will do to the child if she does not, that is one fucked up kind of love.
My mother is dead now, so sadly she will never understand just how wrong she was.
However she lived to see me in therapy and my brother an alcoholic from the age of 14 in court for a series of increasingly vile offenses, responsibility for which she denied because she had done nothing but give us a fine "Christian upbringing".
