I think I've identified the problem

dude needs help and support, not preaching... a proper work of non-fictional literature wouldn't hurt either

A iserable life as the slave to a book is better to them than being happy in the one life you have that isn't debatable.

It's heartbreaking to see the virus of religion (in this case christianity) being passed on. So sad.

It's a shame to see a young mind that wants to ask questions being led down a path that forbids questioning.

So you basically are forced to sell your "mind" in exchange for your "soul".
It's amazing how the 2 are mutually exclusive.

It's probably no exaggeration when we call them "Theological Zombies".
scary stuff indeed.
No God, No fear.

The self-loathing evident in the replies is sad.

Ugh... this is disgusting. How long before he drives himself half insane, or just starts pretending? He badly needs someone rational to talk to Sad Fucking religion.

Does there come a point in the indoctrination where you pretend that you hear god or you actually convince yourself that some of your thoughts actually come from god?

Must be extremely damaging for a young mind and so difficult to reverse. You can see why they like to get 'em young. Makes my skin crawl to be honest.

That just made me feel extremely bad for the OP you quoted. He's asking for help, and the answers he is given are that his happiness, his whole LIFE don't matter except as a slave to god. It's sick, and sad. It makes me angry, too.
