What if I told you that the cereal in your pantry was invented to stop people from having sex?

In this eye-opening episode of The Unlearning Letter, host Nelson reveals the shocking true story behind Kellogg's Corn Flakes—a breakfast food deliberately designed to suppress sexual desire as part of Dr. John Harvey Kellogg's extreme anti-sex crusade.

But this isn't just a quirky history lesson. It's a powerful examination of how religious control, hypocrisy, and spiritual abuse have been weaponized throughout history—and how these same patterns still show up in churches today.

In This Episode:

• The disturbing origins of America's favorite breakfast cereal

• Dr. Kellogg's torture methods at his famous sanitarium

• The secret hypocrisy of his own sexless marriage

• Biblical warnings about religious controllers (Romans 2, Galatians 5)

• How to recognize spiritual abuse in your own life

• Practical steps to break free from religious control

• Why your body and desires aren't your enemy

This Episode Is For You If:

✓ You've experienced church hurt or spiritual abuse

✓ You're deconstructing toxic religious teachings

✓ You've been shamed for being "too human"

✓ You're tired of religious leaders who judge others while hiding their own brokenness

✓ You want to rediscover the freedom Jesus actually offers

Key Quote:

"Christ didn't die to create new religious controllers—He died to set us genuinely free. If someone's teaching leaves you feeling crushed by guilt and constantly afraid, that is NOT the gospel of Jesus Christ."

Join Nelson as he unpacks the high cost of hypocrisy, the beauty of true freedom, and why your body is not a battleground.

Still Unlearning,

Nelson
