#Robin speaks#discourse sorry#ok so! something is bothering me about the current Christianity and stories and therapy discussion#I feel that people are treating Eucatastrophe like the only true thing in the world and... sorta discounting the nitty-gritty as reality?#by saying for instance that therapy isn't the right way to solve problems in stories because Eucatastrophe will solve everything in reality#and saying that problems being solved via organic story/narrative is truer than problems being solved professionally#which... I don't Totally disagree with? I mean it makes sense that therapy can be a really cheaty way to resolve situations in fiction lol#but like... people Do go to therapy. if you weave it into the story right as a step a character needs to take it can totally work.#it'd be hard to do but it COULD work. speaking as someone actively doing that btw.#but it really bothers me to say that Eucatastrophe is the only true reality. because like... does that mean that this life is a shadow?#I don't want it to be! I think our pain is real actually—and that NOT everything will be solved at the second coming.#every tear will be wiped—but there will be tears. and there's a tree of healing—but that means there will be wounds.#does this make sense? theologians or people who do theological thinking feel free to weigh in only if you want to :}
