Christian "charity, priorities," glad-handing, and guilt-tripping.

RE: Christian "charity, priorities," glad-handing, and guilt-tripping.
It's good you got out of a dysfunctional church like that one. But, now what? Does one group of people put you off to all people who fly that flag forever? If that is the way healthy people worked everyone in England would be speaking German today, and we would not have imported toys and movies about giant robots, and cool electronics.

Treat this experience like any other. Do not stereotype a whole planet's worth of people because a handful of people in that group are not who they say they are. Take solace in the fact that God hates hypocrisy as well, and is not fooled by what we call ourselves. At the same time we are still expected to seek Him out even if the church of our fathers, falls far short of our needs.
