Putting this out there not for sympathy but because I feel lonely but I know I’m not alone. So if you stumble across this at any point just know you aren’t the first person to go through this intense process of rediscovery and you won’t be the last. ❤️

Reading (and crying) while reading an article from 2011 about “Religious Trauma Syndrome.” I started deconstructing and formally left Catholicism in 2022. It starts with learning and education.
But now comes the emotional part. I feel lonely and like a kid because I don’t have the coping skills to deal with big emotions like fear.

#Satanism is too #exCatholic. We need #exJW Satanists with giant Yule trees with Baphomet on top. We need #exMormon Satanists outside the temple chanting "You can get anything I'm this world with money" with garment symbol pasties and tithing slips with the url to Widow's Mite report. We need #ExMuslim Shaytanists, idk, reading Salman Rushdie or something.

Biggest question of intensively studying the Bible for years as a believer, only to become a non-believer later in life, is what do I do with all this knowledge?

Growing up Catholic with evangelicals in my family, I knew the animosity the latter held for the former.
They seemed to like the then Pope for his anti communist bonafides.
Now that one they don’t like dies, you can see the animosity the right wing evangelicals have for them.

True story..the lady with the "merch" is known to Catholics as St. Veronica..she was my Confirmation saint.
I was always really good at sales.😂
I'm aware I'm going to hell. That's fine. It's only applicable to people that believe in it.#exCatholic #excatholichumour #recoveringCatholic #religioushumour

Growing up #catholic I had to spend the day eating hot cross buns, sitting through a seemingly endless, depressing Mass (inevitably by someone wearing stinky aftershave or perfume), and being given a huge guilt trip if I chose to do anything else. My mom was liberal about pretty much everything and not strictly religious..but she was oddly strict about #goodfridayHere's to heathenism and being able to do whatever I want today! lol

True story: I have a sister who's a member of Opus Dei. She also wears a chain cilice around her waist, and I hear tell that she's got the scars to prove it. But while I've always thought that was some kooky-ass shit (to say nothing of bearing 11 single-birth children + several miscarriages), she did at least have the choice to do all of that. (Before anyone asks: no, I really don't believe she was coerced into any of this. I've known her my whole life. She's just like this.) She really could have put the brakes on any part of that, if she wanted to, but she's a seriously dyed-in-the-wool believer who was ecstatic when the founder of Opus Dei was canonized. I'm convinced that giving up the (definitely metaphorical, but maybe also literal) self-flagellation is a choice she has never seriously considered.
These women? No such choices available. Straight up slavery and constant abuse for years.
A lot of liberals will point to The Handmaid's Tale as an example of what they fear may happen in the future. I'm a big believer in the value of fiction and narrative as tools for conveying complex ideas, but it'd really be great if people would get clued in: that's not fiction, and it's not only in some hazy vision of the future. It just doesn't usually happen to middle-class white people.
At any rate, best of luck to the plaintiffs in this case. I really hope they're all able to get whatever support they need.

During his interview, he decried that there were “no longer Catholic children in Catholic lands,” accusing the church of the “intentional creation of mestizo (mixed race) children who are without history, without tradition, without education or culture, without identity, without homeland, and without faith, exploited to feed the globalist Moloch and the tyranny of the World Economic Forum.”
The above quotations cite a cornucopia of conspiracy theories and rhetoric common among antisemitic far-right movements.

Hey anyone who has successfully gotten themselves removed from the Catholic Church in all forms, how did you do that? We do not want to be considered catholic or part of that church and we do not want them to be able to count us as a member.
