The feminine urge to just>>>

Lord please grant me:

A Heart to Forgive

Knowledge to seek you

Energy to help others

A Voice to speak words of Praise

A sense of Justice

And A soul who always yearns for you

Amen ♡

Cemetery Reviews #2 - Campo Santo

Campo Santo is the old cemetery of Zapatoca. It's quite small, and people are no longer buried there. Even so, what you see there is very special. There's a mausoleum, and although there are few tomb inscriptions, the ones that remain are quite old. I saw one from 1819, a death one year before independence. There is also a tomb of a German fugitive who lived a semi-feudal and lavish lifestyle in the 19th century.

Although his colonization and trade projects failed and his life ended in ruin, he has a tomb enclosed in its own fence. The guy also has a street named after him. Even if the foreigners who come here don't end up doing much, it's still cool to remember them because it's curious that they pass through here. The chapel is very small and only has a few benches, but the tombs, already piled up among themselves, are covered with grass, moss, and the trees surround the site. To get there, you can also climb a street with long stairs, and from the end, you can see the town from above. In a way, it's like you have to climb a little closer to heaven to see the site.

For these reasons, the bits of history, the curious characters, and the location, I found it to be a very beautiful place with a very fulfilling atmosphere.

Abrahamic religions are controlling. At their very core they’re schizophrenic controlling hateful mythologies.

All your holy texts were written by a man in the early centuries, they took their hate for women, children, animals and pagan religions out in these manifestos essentially.

They demonized earth spirits calling them evil or demons or angels. The demonized pagan gods and goddess as well as stole the practices, holy water, temples, prayers, veiling, etc.

They fear mongered and still fear monger and brain wash people into believing their lies of Hell or eternal damnation.

News flash hell doesn’t exist, the depiction of hell you see is one of Hades many gardens for the dead in Greek mythology. In Norse paganism Hell is one of the five realms of Asgard not accessible to humans dead or alive.

There’s alpha male Christian Jewish and Muslim podcasts with hateful and harmful ideologies of controlling women, children, and fear mongering people who aren’t swayed by the bullshit they’re spewing.

This idea that the god or Allah and the church is causing harm and putting you through torment out of love is bullshit. A god that is said to be all loving wouldn’t torture his followers or leave their prayers unanswered.

It wasn’t gods plan for people to be murdered, hated on, abused, tortured, colonized for who they are and what they believe but these holy books that are re written time and time again say the opposite.

Every major religion has colonized an indigenous group of people that did not want their religion.

A lot of us have been so colonized by it that it became ingrained in our cultures even after it has erased and killed so many of our ancestors and traditional beliefs.

You dare call out the bullshit and people are calling you hateful, anti semitic, or Islamophobic. It’s not any of those things to call out the bullshit and share your experiences with them.

“But the Quran is scientific” it has multiple scientific inaccuracies that can be proven.

Not to mention these religions support and allow child marriage, forced and arranged marriages, can deny divorces, and find it perfectly okay to deem your wife and children as property.

You don’t get to tell me my religious trauma at the hands of the big three or my ancestors religious trauma or my friends religious traumas at the same hands are “just bad experiences” and that “I’m sorry that happened but” No! You’re brainwashed, go spew your nonsense to someone who gives a shit.

I fucking hate Christianity. Christ is cool as homeslice would've ripped these crispy-créme pieces of dogshit a brand-fucking new asshole. I've been lied to my whole fucking life and by perverted incel men who think that just because they have a dick that they're somehow fucking special. Spoiler Alert: The Abrahamic "god" is the actual fucking devil. The real God had to fucking clean up after that piece of shit all the damn time! Sin doesn't fucking exist! If people were smart and read of Mary Magdalene they'd see but NOOO!!! A WOMAN IN CHARGE?! OH THE OUTRAGE!!! While the archbishop and head deacon play circlejerk in the basement with an empty wine bottle.

Best part? I don't just live anywhere! It's the fucking bible belt (ironically getting it's ass kicked by storms, but no, it's just a conspiracy theory 🤮.) I'm glad there is only one town with this name, it is one too many! Negative one is too many!

Fuck the South, fuck Christians, fuck churches, and most of all, fuck anyone stupid enough to believe that fucking bullshit.

They can't thump their almighty Trump-signed bibizzles without being a fucking snake and shitting on it. I am so glad reality is in reverse. I'd rather scrape bones out of a pit in the forest and dance in skins around a fire under a full moon than look at these "friendly, well-bred" Southern inbreds any fucking longer. The kitschy fake shit got old when Dolly Parton got her fifth boob job in '82.

I can't wait until the Vatican burns. Maybe Nuclear Assault will actually hang the goddamned pope.

I don't fucking belong here on Earth anyway, I never did and never want to. It makes me want to bash my head against solid concrete.

Saint Isidore the Farmer

1070-1130

Feast day: May 15 (New), March 22 (Trad)

Patronage: Farmers, laborers, national rural conference in the U.S. and rural communities

Saint Isidore the Farmer, also known as St. Isidore the Laborer, was born in Madrid, Spain to a farming family. He married Maria de la Cabeza who was also declared a saint. Deeply religious, St. Isidore attended Mass daily, though never neglecting his labor. Many times his guardian angel would take up the plow while he lingered in prayer. He loved the poor and animals, miraculously multiplying food for both.

So in the tradition of the Church St. John the Evangelist is considered to be the youngest apostle og Jesus and I ABSOLUTELY AGREE!!! Why you may ask? It's this verse right here.

John 20:4 "Both of them were running together, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first."

Tell me that this is not youngest sibling behavior! Look me in the eye and tell me that telling everyone that you hve outdone your older sibling in something is not youngest sibling behavior!

I hate how much religion but in this case Catholicism is ingrained in Indigenous cultures my own included.

How many terrible things the church has done to our ancestors and lands and tribes for generations with residential schools, ethnic cleansing, forcing religion on us and on our lands that already had religion and tradition for thousands of years prior.

It’s so deeply ingrained in our cultures now that a lot of us wear crosses or go to church while feeling that generational trauma, even if we don’t believe in the religion crosses, Catholicism, the ideas of it became a part of the cultures unfortunately.
