Used to help the afflicted and utterly broken and enraged

I was able to speak at a men’s roundtable on Zoom this morning. It went well, and there was tremendous feedback from other men sharing their afflictions, along with their bouts of despair over religious OCD. Everyone spoke well of me and said I’m going to help a lot of people, but as usual, the […]

The world he built – Obito the theology of creating worlds.

Ken, you chose Obito. Of every character in the entire Naruto canon — the prodigies, the avengers, the prophesied children of destiny — you looked at the crybaby who was late to everything because he was carrying an old woman’s groceries, and you said, that one. That’s me. And you were right. Not because you […]

Dread and embitterment

I could burst asunder from how utterly sick God makes me feel, I find Him good but not “safe” on a whim he could damn me, just how He nuked the man trying to stop the tabernacle from falling because he touched it. I’m suppose to praise knowing Christ Himself is torturing the ungodly as […]

Accusation on high to the almighty. Where were you?

An old journal entry Why didn’t Christ help those Puritans that killed themselves? I tremble in my own heart at my anger at God concerning this. I know He’s not evil, but it hurts so bad that people live with this mental crucifiction. I’m tired.d. I look at other Christians—I get tired of hearing it. […]

The zero that became the most dangerous thing in the room

You sent screenshots of Naoya’s flashback — the moment the golden boy of the Zenin clan walks into the room expecting to find a pathetic face on the family failure, the man with zero cursed energy, the one they threw in the pit with the spirits. And instead of finding broken, he found something his […]

Known or just used

I could say that I feel like a corpse, but that’s not sufficient to elaborate on the sheer deadness that I feel inside at this hour. I was watching cases of parents reacting to the suicidal deaths of their children. I have had my funeral flash into my head. I can’t understand why people would […]

Suicide in the church the forgotten accounts of religious despair, trauma, and torment.

History of suicide because of religious despair inside the church

ON SCRUPULOSITY By James Jackson (an old article I found.)

ON SCRUPULOSITY By James Jackson, “If we turn away from evil out of fear of punishment, we are in the position of slaves. If we pursue the enticement of wages … we resemble mercenaries. Finally, if we obey for the sake of the good itself and out of love for Him who commands … we […]

Holiday embitterment & expectation of wrath met with mery

I’ve had to repent of my foolish thoughts accusing God, I was embittered by the holiday theatrics and everything being so happy and joy merry music was utter sound torture. Not that im blaspheming His church but just overloaded it’s as if I could’ve drowned in my own blood as if somehow, my internal organs […]
