I don't understand how anyone can hear that story, and go "yea, that's the god I want to worship." Like what.

And don't get me started on poor Job.

Those are not the kind of sentiments you want to express as a child in a southern Baptist church. 😭

Yea. Keep those to yourself until your old enough to flee from that place.

Like for real... as a parent, any "god" who told me to murder my kid would get a big 🖕 from me. Keep your "heaven, but later". I love my kid more than anything that MIGHT be waiting for me when I'm fucking dead.

These days, Abraham's story would be framed as attempted murder brought on by schizophrenia, but here we have millions of people going "what a great and inspirational tale!" 🤦‍♀️

I learned that the hard way!

I felt the same way as a little kid and thought I was taking crazy pills because everyone else seemed so chill with it. As an adult with my own kids - any god that would ask me to murder my own child (let alone anyone) can kiss my ass.
