I've Been Screwed Since I Went To Church

   I don't know what church your grandmother took you to, but Christianity is not at all trembling with fear of Hell. Christianity is about love of neighbor, self, nature and the world - to strive to forgive, not to judge others, to live a peaceful life full of love. Your grandmother is obviously a naive and not very educated woman, that's why she inspires you with such stupid fears - she may want to manipulate you in some way to limit your behavior - I know, but you haven't felt the meaning of Christianity at all, and maybe it's too late for that.

   It's not scary, if the big chandelier hasn't fallen on your head, then you're not in hell yet.

   Number 1 is right. If you feel mostly fear, then your religion is presented in a bad way. Enter an Orthodox church and if you want to talk to a priest - it will not scare you.

   Find denials, and know that Paradise is the earth if you have a good soul. You have nothing to fear if you live loving people and do good. Start reading, wise thoughts and phrases there you will find yourself. God will not punish you if you are good, everyone makes mistakes, it is important to gather your thoughts, to realize the mistakes and to correct them. Think about the people who are in your life and love you, think about what God has given you. Be a grateful custom and live in peace and love for God. There is a phrase "Stay close to JESUS ​​if you want the devil to stay away from you." By believing in the good you will defeat the evil, BECAUSE GOD EXISTS, THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU GOT FROM HIM AND IN YOUR MOST DIFFICULT MOMENTS HOW HE HELPED YOU !!!

   Първо, никога не е твърде късно за каквото и да било! Искам да ти кажа, че се радвам, че баба ти те е завела на църква. Жената го е направила с добри намерения, защото знае какво е да живееш в постоянен грях и отдалечен от Бога. На нея естествено й е най-тежко за близките й, тя иска те да се спасят. Не приемай това като задължение, а като възможност за един по-добър живот, където щастието и любовта ще пребъдват в сърцето ти, защото Бог ще ти подаде ръка. Моли се, моли се Господ да ти помогне да приемеш нещата, да те води, да те напътства. Започни да четеш Новият завет и сама ще видиш какви промени ще настъпят в живота ти. Ще усетиш подкрепата и защитата на Бога, защото докато не преживееш нещо, не можеш да го разбереш. Ти си млада, това е твоят шанс да не правиш толкова грешки сега, защото след време ще те боли от тях и ще съжаляваш. Искай и ще ти се даде! Повярвай! Много бих искала да се свържа с теб, за да ти помогна и насърча, но моля модераторите да публикуват имейла ми, защото не е лично мой, а нещо като служебен, когато хората се нуждаят от съвети. Модератор - не публикуваме контактни данни!

   I completely agree with number 1. And I never understood why you put quotes in front of the word Christianity. See, if you're a believer, God will help you, if not then I don't know. For example, God loves everyone, even those who are Charles Darwin's stupid theory, but I'm sorry when they don't believe in God then that explosions and science help and protect them. Christianity sweet girl is as the number one said mostly faith and love. That's what I can say. And I do not care at all who agrees with me and who is not the site is so that everyone can help the needy (in such cases, the authors), so everyone has the right to an opinion and even to is different from the others no one has the right to deny me or me or anyone else ...

   I don't know what you're afraid of, as this Christian nonsense is as true as Santa Claus.

   Number 1 is right, go to an Orthodox church and talk to the priest. There are many things you need to understand before you are intimidated by imaginary sects such as evangelicals, Pentecostals, Jehovah, and others.

   Today's denominational churches are not what they need to be to accustom the ignorant to Christ's way of life. The ancient Orthodox Church has "degenerated" into some public place for preaching and showing everything but humility and fear of God. Evangelical churches were founded in the 19th century in America. Catholicism is a demagoguery that claims to live the life of Christ (and their knights killed all of Christ's followers in the Middle Ages), Islam with their false prophet - has nothing to do with Christ (because it emphasizes material possessions) when Christianity emphasizes the spiritual life. If so, they would not be competing to show who is above the other and to show enviable possessions and false humility (wolves in sheep's clothing). This is categorically denied and condemned by Christ. What does Christ mean? Equivalent to Truth and Word - this is Christ. Everything said before in the form of words - becomes true (and before our eyes). That is why it is said, "And the word became flesh." What is meant? That, we will look at the truth with our own eyes and not recognize it, and we will pass it, and we will be proud, and we will pretend to be blind and deaf (in most cases "we are blind and deaf" - just because it brings us out) . Here is an example: How many people in the world (and they are billions) actually live by "European and American standards"? Against their background - a few million, the remaining billions live in absolute poverty and misery. Some of them are engaged in agriculture (or have been engaged), but Europe and America are stopping their way of life through artificial crises and the conquest of the whole world, and the result is an overpopulation with inexhaustible desires to have the same as the "rich countries". Everyone to have a house (and more), everyone to have a car (and more), everyone to have everything that civilization offers and greedy for more. And we see that all nations are eager to emigrate to Europe, to America, to live their way of life (which, as we have seen, is destructive of its debauchery and viciousness). And what is the truth? Every country has natural resources, every nation can cultivate its land (each for itself) and earn a living, not to rely on various fictional international organizations to tell them what to eat, how to cultivate their land, and which laws apply (when they themselves do not comply with them). Deliberately put on some rails (laws, prohibitions and international norms) and all become the absolute target and experienced mouse of a handful of unscrupulous. The world's population is controlled by a fictitious malicious credit system (living on loans and credits) for life, so that your children can pay - without real production, or production is in the hands of big traders. What's happening? From a landowner and producer to yourself, you become a serf and a slave to other "people" - large landowners, and they decide how much they will give you, how much and what you will eat and use, etc. great care "for the malnourished population in Africa, and at the same time - billions are spent on military action, scientific and space research, etc. The common man is left to perish - where from hunger, from wars, from abuse and violence. And this is a world reality. At the same time, peoples with a Western standard of living cannot get used to their desires to always want and have, and what happens? At a time when someone is dying of hunger, violence, robbery and more. others some seek to satisfy their passions through gifts, excursions, acquisitions, celebrations - all empty life (which is not given by God). God wants each of us to work hard (in the name of truth), to help the weak and the poor, the sick, to support widows and orphans if someone is not there due to weakness or illness who has to give - and such things are pleasing to God. Any desire to satisfy our own whims is not from God. That is why at the time there was understanding, brotherhood, help without selfishness, joy and joy without envy, etc. Now selfishness is in vogue and this will totally destroy man and " those whom God has given them power to test in their hands and they have abused (by artificially pushing humanity into their own standards) and they determine who is good or bad, who deserves this or that, who will learn and who will not, who is with " blue "blood and to whom we will drain my blood and kill him, who is second quality and who does not deserve to live (here are the ritual murders), and various liars, thieves, murderers, gluttons, drunkards, all kinds of lusts and sexual perversions and many others. If you do none of this and lead a humble and God-pleasing life - God has promised us - "that no one will perish." If you believe in this and in the second coming of Christ - you will see eternal life and no devils and hell can scare you. It's all in the Bible - read it. who deserves this or that, who will study and who will not, who has "blue" blood and to whom we will drain my blood and kill him, who is a second quality and who does not deserve to live (here are the ritual murders), and various liars, thieves, murderers, gluttons, drunkards, all kinds of lusts and sexual perversions, and many others.

   To number 1 by the author - I know that God is love. The desire for revenge is inherent in people, in my opinion. It's just that gospel nonsense has clouded my head, instilling fear in me. As for my grandmother - it gives her hope for something better - who doesn't want to be happy? It's just that these people are so convinced of themselves - I wonder if I should laugh or believe them. And what do you mean it's late? My life is starting now, I have a lot more to learn. I did not formulate well enough, this guilt can be instilled very easily - of course it depends on the person. If they are constantly flooded with this - my question is how to stop getting rid of it.

   Forget all church nonsense and live your life - we are in the 21st century!

   The main goal of the Church, and Orthodox Christianity in particular, is to instill in you how sinful you are and how nothing happens to you, but if you pray fervently and financially to the fat black priests, heaven is guaranteed. This approach suppresses and complexes in order to control the masses. God is not there, God is in you. You just have to see and feel it, to manifest it. You're on the right track, your grandmother is wrong. She goes to church because she does not see God in herself and seeks him there. And go there for a bunch of other reasons you don't know yet. As I read you, you are still very young, therefore you are still a pure and undefiled soul, you are almost a child. Learn to feel the gentle whisper of your soul, this is the right way. Your mind and those around you are often totally wrong. The soul does not think, it is very old and always knows !!! Never forget that!!!

   So number 7 and 11 this story at least I think it is for believers you do not believe I'm sorry it's not nonsense that you have one of the little ones instilled in you nonsense and nonsense does not mean no GOD does not exist. ON THE CONTRARY, it exists and I am just sorry that there are people like you who do not realize it.

   to number 6 - I put Christians in quotes because there are those who just say they are Christians, but in fact are more rotten inside than any unbeliever

   number 13 - I feel sorry for such deluded as you! ... No, I'm not really sorry, I don't even care, I'm just looking to be further away from me! Now go to the church to light a candle that the priest is rubbing to pour gasoline in the Mercedes ...

   In fact, it is this contempt and sense of superiority over others that irritates me among Christians. Your belief does not make you better people. Actions make you better people. As much as I wanted it not to turn into a religious dispute and inflate the ego - it seems impossible as I look. From the author

   I don't want to repeat myself and get annoying, but if you've heard of Outlandish, you'll know what I'm talking about. People have different beliefs, but still make music with understanding and respect for each other.

   Have you ever heard of someone loving their enemies? I'm not, but even if there are, these are a handful of people. People want feasible and achievable moral principles, not phantasmagorias that only a madman can reach.

   My advice is not to go to the "evangelists" and their congregation. It is perfectly normal to have a headache when visiting pseudo-churches

   Instead of wondering what is right, take the Bible and read it ... the answer is in front of you, you just have to be encouraged to write it. I guarantee you will hate the Orthodox Church after reading the New Testament.
