i was born female ...into a Catholic family i was christened as a baby ...i hate the Catholic church  because i was abused by a priest and i was abused by family friends who where Catholic , when i was 15 we moved , my sister and my husband knows about it  no one else and i never reported it  i was too scared to at the time and now years later the priest that abused me is dead  the other people involved are old or died 


when i was 18 i started to look in to paganism even got a tattoo of a pentagram on wrist witch i now regret getting i have other tattoos as well 
then for years i went to other faiths back and forth then back to Christianity and i started to wake the fuck up seeing that there is no god  if there was a god he wouldnt let shit like what happened in Orlando , Abuse and murder starvation etc they say that its the devil and sin that makes theses bad thing happen 
WHAT A LOAD OF SHITE  
i am transgender / gender queer and am married to a man who is also an atheist ( he never believed  in god at all from a young age )

Very sorry to hear about your past abuse by those sick people. But it's always nice to see people break free from the shackles that is religion.

What a sad story, it's horrible that those people could do that to you

Well done for fighting your way out. I'm sorry to hear of your mental health problems also I've been struggling with depression for much of my life, so I have an idea how you feel. I'm glad you have a loving husband taking care of you

Hey again Alex!
My husband got a tattoo of a cross on his shoulder before he came over to the dark side with me   He got some work done to it though and it looks kinda badass now.

It's pretty sad when the people in your life who are supposed to be wise and offer you protection turn out to be exactly the opposite--foolish, selfish predators who devote their every last resource to wriggle out of ever taking responsibility for their actions. I'm sorry to hear about what you went through in your church.

But I'm glad you've got a supporting husband. My husband and I both struggle with depression, and having each other for support has been great for us.

Thank you for sharing with us!
