Ebony...I don't blame you.

My dad treated my mom and us kids like shit and this was acceptable. I hated church because he was so embraced and my mom was met with dry hellos and fake acts of concern. I didn’t want any part of it. I told my I didn’t believe in God long ago because if the people in our church were examples of Gods people I wanted no part of them or it. When my mom left my dad it got worse for her. She finally stopped going to church. Jay this is a white mans world and he is always right even when he is so damn wrong it’s literally a sin.

I know the feeling Ebony. I mean so many questions and no adequate answers.

It was the hate in the church. So much racism which is pure hate. Our pastor talked about black people being inferior and there were no black members in our church. This is why I wasn’t shocked when my brother posted the evangelical whatever he is saying the things he was saying.

It’s scary to think that money is valueless but it is and that is clear at in so many ways.

I’m loving how each article naturally builds off the articles before it. :cheer: .

For me it was being told I was the reason my first husband was violent toward me. I was the one who had to try and fix our problems. I was the one who wasn’t doing something right. I couldn’t believe I was being blamed for all of it. I backed away and never returned to church with him. It wasn’t too much longer after that I left him and saved my life. None of them will speak to me know and I don’t care. I don’t try to engage them in conversation. Jay, you are right, if we don’t conform, good or bad, we are the ones who are considered wrong. I lost friends who clearly were never my friends. I’m all the better for it because I have new friend, the kind of friends who are like family and who will always be in my life.

For me it was a bunch of nothing actually. I wasn’t feeling anything in any of the churches I visited. I liked the singing in the black church but that was it. I hated the racial divide in the churches. I hated the begging. I hated how the preachers use God to justify everything they do. I thought I was an atheist because I didn’t get anything out of church and I didn’t take any of it seriously. But once I became a Gnostic that all changed because I realized I love the Most High and I know he loves me. I can see what or why I was so turned off. It didn’t make sense. I watched my dad go through a lot and I just didn’t believe this was something that should be happening if there was a God. I love my dad and when he found his faith I had to see what brought him to it. I’m glad I followed him he is a good leader.

I’m an original UE member. I am Jewish but wasn’t really active in any religion. I was called to the Gnostic faith when Sir Paul was still alive and I have never been more happy and content.

Well I am also an original coming in while Sir Paul was still with us as I worked for him as his professional chef. Yes, I still cook :lol: . I met my life partner and have been in the service of the lord for almost twenty years. I was not practicing any religion when I found my faith because I decided I was an atheist because religion just wasn’t something I wanted anything to do with for many reasons at the time. It just wasn’t a very loving, accepting thing to be a part of. So, I was a sponge socking the lord in when I found my faith. I found peace and I know contentment.
