This is an interesting story. I think many people who were born into religion lead very sheltered li8ves... but this was pretty extreme.
I was told all the lies about the god my mom believed in. Went to church but never really believed. It was more of something to do social event. Older kids were men to the younger ones parents did not care. Not what the god was suppossed to be about yet these acts were going on in his supposive house.
I love it when they say we can't understand god if we aren't trained in philosophy or theology, like they are.
philosophy is using logic theology is not conflicting ideas
Philosophy assumes that the universe is what it is. The means is finding out where you are wrong so you can fix it. Theology is assuming that your dogma is right and that the universe is wrong.
CONGRATULATIONS on your escape! I'm very proud of you and wish you the best possible future!
