I am fine with religion. I am not fine with the way you say the words, their intonation and your voice.

I like soft supplications, sweet voices, calming ones, words about good things.. not words that sound like you're about to chop off my head. Fears don't attract me nor make me shrink myself. They make want to get rid of the threat.

I dealt with enough violence in my life , and if I wanted to see hell again, all I have to do is switch to my demons from decades ago. And then both of us would have to deal with it not just me. You don't want that. No one does.

If any are going to speak about the Bible or the Lord, it should be spoken of in love. I'm 100% against fear-mongering, scare tactics, and judgments of people who think they're witnessing for the Lord. All they're doing is turning people away. That's not the way to talk to or treat people. I find that shameful and it always makes me angry. Who in the world would want to turn to Christ as Savior, when somebody is blasting their ears with "if you don't repent, you're going to hell!" It makes me sick when I see it and especially that they don't understand that's not the way to talk to others. Yeah, that would really make me want to find Christ. NOT!!! There's not one person on this Earth any better than the other. So they shouldn't act like it.
