WOTME: God Is Love
I few months back, I made a video about the worst ideas in religion. In thinking about that a bit more, I have a new number one — and it went right to the top with a bullet. It's the way religion has completely corrupted the idea of love and forever entangled it with violence. Even gentle Jesus can't be counted on as an example of genuinely loving behavior — just the opposite. This might infect Western civilization more than any other idea, and it is profoundly disturbing.
Thank you all for your continued support! B

I have always liked ''If god loves us, why does he treat us like an abusive boyfriend"
Bingo! I've often wondered if those zealously endoctrinated in religion since toddlerhood are ripe candidates to end up in an abusive relationship: either abusing or abused… or both.
The fact that god is NOT love was very forcibly thrust into my consciousness at the ripe old age of 16...
Oh no. I’m afraid to ask. But I’m also incredibly curious. 😬
