    Most of these generic American Christians are taught it was gods will. That is… ANYTHING is gods will. I used to find that so interesting as I was raised in all that abuse. No matter WHAT happens, it’s always god that intended it or wanted it. There was some “purpose” or reason.

    How convenient.

    My parents also loved to lean into how they only had to answer to god. Also convenient.

      No mom and dad, you answer to me. Your children are the only ones qualified to determine whether you were a good parent.

      “God never gives anyone more than they can handle.”

      … “Because that’s when he takes you.”
