I stopped going to church three years ago. I don’t miss it and I feel zero guilt about it, but it took me a long time to unravel all the programming and propaganda from my faith leaders and it makes me so angry to think about the fear and anguish I experienced. I’m so sorry for what you went through. You are brave and so courageous to tell your story. Sending healing thoughts and love to you.💖

I heard you on "For our Daughters". I appreciate your courage to do that. My wife and I are out of attending church, we've found a progressive church that seems pretty good. Im personally struggling with my own beliefs because of these things. I don't know lots about it, but I'm trying to learn how religion and misogyny have combined to create a world that's dangerous for women.

What these people don’t get is that there is spiritual warfare but THEY are the losing victims of it!

They need to read Isaiah and Jeremiah!

As a follower of Christ's first two commandments that sum up the ten, the Shema, I apologize for that serial rapist, "pastor in name only," false shepherd.

He is a liar, cheat and UNINDICTED felonious serial rapist.

It's wrong and unconstitutional (violating the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment, and ban on nobility -- for churches to pretend they are like the church in medieval times and can have their own courts.

That relic of "judging their own" is pagan -- the raping feudal Lords were their own courts too. They reserved their "right" to rape any bride of their serfs on the "first night."

Whatever rapist Christians are doing, it's not of Christ.
