I remember last week hearing this preacher in the street
Talking about how Christ was "the answer to all my problems", "You can't fix your problems without him, he is the only path to salvation". and I remember feeling so angry. It'd never hit me like that before.
Here I was checking my bank account to see if I could afford to buy shoes for a job interview I might not even get, after recently losing people to suicide, feeling depressed and stressed, and pulling myself up through it all, listening to this man say that my efforts were for nothing because I didn't do it right.
I thought, how dare he push his burdens of self inadequacy and helplessness onto other people. Tell that to the children who got napalmed who are still covered in burns to this day, to the people who grew up without parents and have addiction and trust problems. It irks me about religious people like that guy, he has an answer for everything but answers nothing.
