Christian apostates obviously are an extremely varied group of people, but one thing we can pretty much all agree on is that certain arguments that Christians use constantly are very ineffective. For example, it’s incredibly invalidating when people use the “you were never really saved” argument. I’ve touched on that a few times now, such…

I keep my blog subscriptions separate from my personal subscriptions, which are mostly about kittens and other cute animals. I wish I had time to actually watch all these people’s content!

I’m officially discharging on Wednesday, June 1. I’m not doing as great with it as I was because Dr. X is on vacation this week and I wanted him to be able to see me off. I suspect that things will be better once I’m actually out, but right now I’m kind of in limbo….

As usual, I’ve been watching atheist YouTube videos lately because honestly no amount of “atheist indoctrination” is ever going to be able to hold a candle to the amount of Christian indoctrination I’ve been through in my life. A lot of the videos take issue with things that are in the Old Testament, and when…

https://thewartburgwatch.com/2022/05/06/former-baptist-pastor-thomas-chantry-is-a-free-man/ This is 🤬ed up. Apparently Chantry only spent 3.5 years in prison and is now free, walking around, and probably in contact with children since these churches don’t seem to care as much about protecting their kids as they do about their pastors agreeing with them on every conceivable minute point of theology. They’re…

I should be discharged soon from the psych hospital! This fiasco started (in my mind) in December 2018 when I was hospitalized and just kinda never could stay out. Before that I used to go inpatient about twice a year, but after Dec ’18 I was literally inpatient more than not. However, insurance doesn’t cover…

*UPDATE: Tom Chantry’s sister-in-law commented on this post to say that she supports Chantry and her Facebook posts were about something unrelated. For her exact words, see the comments. https://thewartburgwatch.com/2022/03/01/latest-court-documents-from-thomas-chantry-case/ As I mentioned, I found out about this recently and I’ve been careful to expose myself only in small doses because it’s upsetting. It feels…

The way this whole thing (that I’m just finding out about now) played out is a perfect illustration of the values that our church held to. I might write more later but now I’m upset. Somebody in my family should’ve asked if I was ok. Or at least when I got hospitalized for over a…

The church I grew up in was proud to be an ARBCA church, so today I googled ARBCA just to see what they were up to. It turns out that the whole organization had basically dissolved after a massive child molestation scandal. Growing up in Reformed Baptist churches, people (mostly cis-male people) did seem to…

Getting out of homeschool definitely felt like emerging from a coma, and I didn’t want to have to go through that again after about 13 months in the psych hospital. So, I spent a lot of time catching up on the news and writing myself some notes to help me study. I looked up all…
