Christianity is just emotion manipulation of hurting and vulnerable people.

Everyone that gets saved is going through something traumatic in their life. They have decided that their current waynis not working so they give church a chance.

Instead of offering advice and support, the Pastor and church tell them they are a sinner and that if they don’t accept Jesus then they will be eternally damned to hell. If they don’t do it right now then god may kill them on the way home. I compare it to a used car salesman approach.

This is why I like other books like the Tao Te Ching . They offer advice without condemnation instead of threatening , scaring and manipulating you into it.

I remember when I got saved. The pastor scared me to death about hell and I sure didn’t want to go. It wasn’t about Jesus it was about not getting tortured in hell. What kind of crap is that. I have now realized that I self hypnotized myself into believing and of course if I believed I was going to hell when I realized I was saved that I would feel much better.
