      Seriously. Looking back, Christian love was something that caused a lot of subconscious confusion and friction for me over years, and was probably what started my journey out of Christianity before I had any conscious doubts.

        “Why are they treating me like this, when they’re supposed to love me?”

        That dissonance has been fucking up America for a long time.

        “Love thy neighbor as thyself.”

        “Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony.”

        Shit is dead simple.
