being the only jesus knower in my friend group means i have to field questions like โjesus didnโt ride into jerusalem on a giant crab, right?โ
#considering the fact that i haven't really read the bible in YEARS there is a lot of jesus information squirrelled away in my brain#in a way it's kind of fun bc it's like. i was born into this so a lot of these things are just 'oh yeah mhm that's a part of christianity'#i think three weeks ago i had to explain that god and jesus are actually technically the same thing#and ended up just explaining the concept of the holy trinity to them and they were like 'dude what the fuck'#and i was like 'yeah i know right i didn't get it as a kid either'#i hate the concept of evangelizing people so these conversations only happen when my friends bring stuff up#and to be honest it's kind of fun talking abt christianity w/such irreverence bc my parents are just so stern abt it like.. chill....#seriously tho being able to answer in 0.7 seconds what jesus DID ride into jerusalem on when nat asked was.#i didn't realize i had it in me#anyway this is mostly just an irreverent post abt growing up in a religion and then living in a world mostly w/o it#the worm speaks#i think i have more jesus thoughts these days than i did a few years ago but i'm not sure if that means i'm more religious these days#i think growing up in just a Very Christian Household means i'll never rlly be able to have fully secular jesus thoughts#i was skimming the bible for a particular parable bc it was relevant to this other non-christian thing(? secularly christian-insp thing?)#blah blah blah fictional religion in video games stuff#n like. regardless of How Christian i may be (which is not a quantity i know tbh) i realized it was hard to read the bible as i would#a regular book bc i was taught to search for meaning in a particular way growing up. and by 'hard' i do mean impossible#it's probably fully impossible to separate myself from my christian experiences both good and bad but like. it is what it is.
