We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death.

I didn’t die when I got baptised.

It was basically just a very awkward pool party. There I was, standing in the pool in basketball shorts and a baggy t-shirt, completing the promise that I’d made when I was 5 years old. I was told it would wash away my sins and bond me to Jesus in a new way. That I would die and be reborn through baptism. I would emerge from the pool as a new creation. I would be covered in His blood, glorious and loved.

Now I wish the water had washed his blood off of my hands instead– the blood that had been on my hands since before I went to kindergarten.

I'm still working on ideas for reverse baptisms. I shouldn't fill a bathtub with silica gel, right? Bad idea?

One of the silliest after effects of growing up in purity culture (alongside being homeschooled) is that you just don’t KNOW what’s considered normal to regular society.

And you don’t wanna be weird, but you also genuinely don’t know what is considered normal for relationships or sex, what’s normal for casual drinking, what’s a normal level of swearing, etc.

When the baseline is abstinence and YOU CAN’T DO ANYTHING, finding the balance and learning about culture is a messy growth process.

toxic positivity also created toxic forgiveness where ppl are proud to 'forgive' everyone that treats them like shit and by forgive i literally just meant set up no boundaries give no consequences just letting shitty ppl back in their lives to continue to be shitty

oh… you believe in the inherent badness of humans?? no offense but that’s kind of cringe, bro.

sometimes you just take a step back and reflect on things and say damn it was really fucked up to tell a kid that the most important being in the universe is constantly watching and judging you

Being so fr if progressive christians want us to not lump them in with the “bad ones” im gonna need them to actually step up and give me a reason not to, because my whole life they’ve been the people standing by watching their conservative peers do awful things and not doing anything to stop it

They say judas is in hell because he betrayed jesus but thats actualy a misconception, that was gods plan and so he didnt do anything wrong. Judas however IS in hell because god thinks he made his son gay
