> There is so much goodness when you leave, of course. That makes it all worth it. I have found that the integrity of embracing reality is much better than even the most comforting lie. But often, freedom feels a lot like loneliness. A lot like being on an island.
> You mourn what was thought to be true but never was and never will be. This grief is normal and healthy, if you befriend it. It's the evidence of how true you were then and how true you are now. A god may not have shown up, but your grief is proof that you were always fully there.

Why do so many #evangelical leaders end up being… creeps?
"In this video, I explore the disturbing pattern of #abuse, manipulation, and scandal among #Christian leaders — from #prosperitygospel #televangelists to #culturewar #preachers. This isn’t just about a few bad apples. These #ministries attract creeps, protect them, and often reward them for their worst behavior."

The "#ShinyHappyPeople" #sequel highlights the #Christian boot camp that traumatized a generation
The three episodes focus on #TeenMania, a Christian #ministry founded by #RonLuce, with a goal of getting children to turn to #Jesus and reject temptations like #sex, #drugs, and #alcohol.
But the #darkside of the ministry destroyed so many lives.

Not one but two other JPs recognised me and came over to say hi at Decult Conference. Do all us ex-cultists have an overcommitment problem and end up becoming JPs?

I talked about a lot of stuff with my MP on this Facebook live video (with the aim of encouraging people to consider becoming a JP). I'm not entirely sure how to feel about it but it's there if you want to have a watch. https://www.facebook.com/DuncanWebbLabour/videos/1485424365482997/

@kyleford I'm not *precisely* #exvangelical but I'm pretty damn adjacent. And I'm definitely into the whole #deconstruction aspect, though partly owing to its fascinating doubled word play with #Derridean deconstruction. #JacquesDerrida
