What do you think about the "guilt feeling"?

What are your thoughts or feelings about someone trying to make you feel the "guilt feeling" while at the same time trying to reject the idea they could be guilty thus attempting to throw it or you?

I assume I’m guilty of everything, so if someone tries to give a guilt trip, I’m like OK.

@StevetheSleeve It's not okay to acknowledge guilt regardless if it's real or not. I guess I'd admit to mistakes but I'd never take guilt for them. Too lethal.

@SW-User Yeah, you shouldn’t. They’re just trying to manipulate your emotions in most cases.

SW-User

@StevetheSleeve Sucks. Why would someone manipulate your emotions in a time of distress? But my biggest question was if they're even aware of it.

@SW-User Giving them the benefit of the doubt, they may be trying to get you to adjust your behavior, for your own benefit.

SW-User

@StevetheSleeve I'm not sure. Where it concerns religion I feel as if people talk more "emotionally" rather than use their "logic" and try to impose their methods/ways upon you then BOOM conflict.

@SW-User I suppose in their minds they’re trying to save you from the eternal pits of hell. But if you’re not buying it they should back tf off.

SW-User

@StevetheSleeve Who would want to go into the eternal pits of "hell" anyway? Somehow people seem to lack proper knowledge about their own God.

@SW-User Well, the fiery pits of hell might sound preferable to a cold winter day. Lol.

SW-User

@StevetheSleeve Maybe ironically speaking but I don't think hell sounds preferable in any way whatsoever.
