Hey Feeling Frustrated.
You say you're made more progress with new age teachings and psychology than you have with Christianity, but you're worried that values are dependent on religions like that ole time religion.
No. The values that Christians have are nothing more than unexamined naive prejudices. They normalize things like sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and the patriarchy. And the patriarchy leads to all kinds of fucked up shit. Look at all the high-profile conservatives who turned out to be the worst kind of sexual deviants. That ole time religion didn't do anything about that.
