my therapist understands my soup trauma 😭

[papirouge]

man, I wish Christian natalists wouldn't get so predator-enabling/breeder fetishy whenever they speak...

I was watching a videos about a Christian woman making a testimony of her pregnancy with risks, "putting back" together her ligated tubes, and explaining how the Bible says we should have as many children as God decides and not us (so no contraception), and yeah why not

but THEN she got like "why would God make girls to have their period at 10 if it wasn't to have children? Why would women wait until they're in their late 20s-30 (the average age of women getting their first child)?"

IDK girl, probably for the same reason grown women aren't sexing barely pubescent boys to get impregnated just bc they virtually can? ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

and then she explains she's from middle east and that her aunts/grandmother married respectively at 17 and 12 years old. Interestingly she didn't tell about their husbands age...🙃 ...and we all know how these marriage with weird age gap work in middle east... Even if Mary was 14 when she got pregnant like some pedo apologists argue (we never have evidence of that ofc), nothing says that Joseph was an old scrote old enough to be her dad.

She was like "yeah these marriage weren't perfect but they worked uwu" sticking into a marriage = marriage "working". Those marriage lasted because those women didn't have much alternative back then. Their backing support wasn't the same as those of modern/Western societies. Same in the West (because she also brought up old school family model with 8-10 kids). I mean, I'm ok for dunking on the sexual revolution as much as you want, but let's not act like access to a bank account, divorce and work didn't facilitate women nope'ing out of having big families. My grandparents stayed together until my grandpa died but I wouldn't say their marriage worked just because of that. Was she happy? Was she fulfilled? THOSE are the things that make a marriage working. Otherwise the Bible wouldn't tell spouses to treat well & cherish each other until death. Otherwise sticking together until the end would be enough.

She ended saying "when they get theirs period, young girls start having their hormones working.... If one of my daughter tells me she's interested in (marrying) a man I wouldn't tell her no" and that's how I noped out lmao

The excuse "hormones working" is like the WORST reason to get into marriage. When Paul said marriage was better than sexual immorality (sex outside marriage, masturbation), it was about people who weren't fit for celibacy, not those eaten by their flesh and eager get married just to have a valid situation to get their peepee wet.... The same Paul who said to not trust the flesh...but suuuure tHe hOrmOnEs 🤪

Also note how the "why would girls get their periods that early if it wasn't to get children" actually works both ways: if God wanted women to have children at 14 (like OP said) why would He make women have periods until their 60s? 🤔 Why would He made the window the be able to be a mother so WIDE (~50 years)?🤔Why did He show through the Bible several examples of MATURE women (not barely pubescent girls) getting children?🤔 The math ain't mathing.

She says, concerning the difficulty of having big families in the modern time, that God knew about how the world would work and would helps us go through it and therefore there's no reason to take contraception. Okie dookie, then why get mad at women getting children at later age?? God is good so he inspired doctors to make pregnancy safer at older ages. Women are living longer. Women don't have to get pregnant at 14 to hope seeing their children and grandchildren before dying. Why is it a problem?? 🤔 The Bible does ADAPT to a bunch of different lifestyle, so why not embrace it instead of shoving ONE model of pregnancy? Paul said that the good news was about FREEDOM.

She also said "it's said Mary was 14 when she got pregnant with Jesus uwu" WE LITERALLY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT AGE MARY WAS AND THAT'S BY DESIGN BECAUSE GOD DIDN'T WANT YALL WEIRDOS TO HAVE A WEIRD FIXATION WITH AGE TO BREED WOMEN. IT'S THE SAME WITH THE AGE OR DATE OF BIRTH OF JESUS AND CHRISTIANS SHOEHORNING THE CELEBRATION OF CHRISTMAS. GOD DISMISSED THOSE DETAILS ON PURPOSE BUT YOU GUYS ARE CONSTANTLY MISSING HIS POINT DESPERATELY TRYING TO CLING ONTO WHAT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE RELEVANT TO BUILD YOUR THEOLOGY AND LIFE DECISION.

that's it. just 'Harassment' goodbye?

is there any rectification stage?

is there any example of wrongdoing?

is this blacklisting supposed to be punitive or consciousness-raising?

how could i truly appeal if (i say that) idk where your fragility became a conflict of interest? being overly emotional about a bruised ego was admitted by a billionaire never when disclosing how to be a successful market maker fyi

i gather that the hive should be authentic but not so authentic that we neglect to ask your permission what to post..

dicks, tits, and nonsense are appropriate by all in the hive but when i use dictionary words, that crosses the line..

if it was a puritan nerve i struck on you, im not sorry

if it was me shouting out africa that offended you, you should be sorry

if it was me saying the word 'hitler' why not just delete that post alone and not the whole account with 70+ posts from a user who planned to fundraise (among other thinggs) for the hive ?

is this properly appealed or no??? if yes, cool. if no, for future users and prospective users, instead of saying only 'tate and trump' are the hives red flags, tell the public the complete list of bogeymen who shouldn't be posted about and the risk of defying the rules of your happy place.

but no warning, no option to delete, no phonecall or email.. yo, how is that any different than twitter or g-rated youtube??

if you're scared of me - im godzilla- that's nothing new although im not a threat to you and was beginning to warm to the hive and i typically never thaw to anyone or anything so it's a notable anecdote for you

if you're not scared of me, let's prove it and put this behind us and make history

the hive might have something in store for it in the future that neither one of us could ever honestly predict so if you're willing and fearless then i'd love to be a part of whatever that may be so that when the hive is praised by newlyweds for helping them find a match or by the next generations for sponsoring massive events, i might say i was there at the beginning when it took patience, mindfulness, and insight to not only trust the process but also be a part of it

that badass opportunity was denied me by all social media, even myspace ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ 🙈✌️🤙🤟💅

Im just still over there waiting. How about read a different book to change your mind? You exile someone over an opinion. No one's hurt and without the aid of tech and big data, the uestionable wrong i was accused of would already be forgotten. that's how it is with millions of users - most of them having fun. I've grown and evolved and entered the door to the future. are you still at where? someone being so offended, often by a slight remark that more rightfully should've been received even slighter has some huge tension going on that has far less to do with a new app and much much more to do with topics suited for the therapist's couch. i know it's hard and this isn't ideal or natural or realistic, etc. but why will you hate tech and its function while simultaneously ushering in more growth of it? what do you want? i can't froth at the mouth at you- i've never met you- or, i wouldn't know if i had, would i? why don't you just let nature take its course instead of falling back with the conceit of a royal, neurodivergent enough to believe that you are pondering whether or not to abort the potential new star whilst being aided by the intellect and logic of said new star? im helping you cheat. isn't cheating supposed to result in positive recognition? you don't have to say anything to recognize me. when does that ever happen? ever so peacefully, you can just symbolically nod to reinstate my account so that i may add to the discourse, raise the vibrations, and storm some brains like the hive is a crude misrepresentation of my adolescent mind of chaos when i was rudely thought to be schizophrenic. but hey, you know what, ive noticed both the catholics and puritans both agree on banning euphoria in any way they can think up. that's you now? some universal equal opportunity hater? just because you don't like my water doesn't mean that others won't care to drink it, and love it and ask for more of it. think about it. but whatever you do, please, stop feeling ill about it. let it go for wickedness' sake

Papi, what’s your opinion on speaking in tongues? I’m a new believer and I’m not sure what to feel about it

It's a spiritual gift like there are many others 💁🏾‍♀️

For some reasons, some Christian sects are doing the most about it, on both extreme end of the spectrum : Cessationists basically say spiritual gifts don't translate through "supernatural" things such as tongues, and Charismatics argue that if you don't speak tongues you're not really Saved.. both sides are essentially wrong.

I don't speak in tongues but who knows, maybe one day I will? Why you're not "sure" how you feel about it @reinatwee ?

IDK if it will help you but keep in mind that those are "gift" and if you don't have them (yet?) it doesn't automatically makes you a lowgrade Christian or whatever. That's why they're "gift": they're a valuable additional but not obligatory asset. They may be very helpful if God gave you a proper ministry. That's why the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 14:1 to "Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy." Those gifts are accessible for everyone🤍

But God can also provide a "special talent" in some things that aren't as "spectacular" as tongues or prophecy but still shouldn't be overlooked since they can be extremely useful if not more than tongues on some aspect

For example, if God makes a missionary is very poor country having the gift of healing would be more useful than just understanding their language. Or the gift of discernment is extremely handy because it helps you see through the bs without even trying. This kind of gift facilitates an apostolic ministry.

I kinda think I have it.

Several times I when engaging with some Christian content, I started feeling something was off/fake with them and step out, until they got exposed years later as beign wolf in sheep's clothing, swindlers or rapists ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Even here on Tumblr there's a semi famous Christian blogger who tingled my papi senses Big time a while ago with his faux deep heretic Christian who turned out to be sliding on Tumblr girls DM 👀
