I think religion in and of itself is fucked up, but it can be taught with good intentions.
Just my pov.
Oh please. We're not talking about thinking a bit different, we're talking about living your life in fear of eternal torment. If you don't see why that is fucked up, you need to get your perspective checked. Of course it's all with good intentions.
You can get used to anything. If you grow up being taught to fear hell, you grow acclimated to living that way. It's not like all Christians who live this way, stay locked in their bedrooms clutching their Bibles. lol They just think that hell is real, and that if they disobey God, they'll end up there.
My point is, when you live in it, you think it's normal. When you abandon it, you realize it's not.
Religion is fucked up, but my family of origin isn't. If you wish to think so, I can't stop you. lol Think as you wish.
