I wanted to do things my way.
To enjoy life.
To lead a simple happy life.
I used to be happy... just being me.
My earliest memories after that, are the fear, terror, pain as
Ministers yelled to the top of their lungs how dirty & horrid a sinner I was. GET SAVED!! GET SAVED!! YOUR A SINNER!! GET SAVED!! Ok, maybe, wait, whats this?
YOU WILL GO TO HELL IF YOU DON'T!
Why would he try to scare me like that?
I was afraid to move, think, live, die, school, work, Jesus might return any minute, how to "know" for sure I am saved, will I die before I can get married & have a life?
The fear, the terror, the depression, caused me to nearly commit suicide, in a panic, unable to cope with how awful I was told I am.
Being thought of as a dirty sinner, the likes of Adolf Hitler, though I had killed no-one, & I nearly died in panic.
Told I am so awful, figured why don't I go ahead & do all these crimes? I am so awful, I guess!
Religion destroyed my life.
Only getting rid of it saved me...
