  • My psychiatric institution a.k.a. psych ward entire story
    “Psychiatric hospitals, also known as mental health hospitals, behavioral health hospitals, or colloquially nuthouses are hospitals or wards specializing in the treatment of severe mental disorders, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, dissociative identity disorder, major depressive disorder and many others. Psychiatric hospitals vary widely in their size and grading. Some hospitals may specialize only in short-term or outpatient therapy for low-risk patients. Others may specialize in the temporary or permanent containment of patients who need routine assistance, treatment, or a specialized and controlled environment due to a psychiatric disorder. Patients often choose voluntary commitment, but those whom psychiatrists believe to pose significant danger to themselves or others may be subject to involuntary commitment and involuntary treatment.[1][2] Psychiatric hospitals may also be called psychiatric wards/units (or "psych" wards/units) when they are a subunit of a regular hospital.”

  • The naked fugitive Bible story and the disciple whom Jesus loved story!
    “Since ancient times, many have speculated on the identity of this young man, proposing:
    Simply someone else who happened to be there.
    James the Just[2]
    The Beloved Disciple (John)[3][4]
    Mark himself[5]
    Lazarus of Bethany[6]
    An antitype of Joseph[7]
    It has been speculated[by whom?] that the fugitive represents the disciples, the linen cloth represents Jesus and the young men represent the Roman soldiers. When the young men laid hold of the cloth the fugitive abandoned the cloth and ran out of the garden naked and alone, a metaphor representing the disciples abandoning Jesus and running out of the garden spiritually naked and alone.
    Many have seen this episode as connected to a later verse in Mark: "And entering the tomb, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, dressed in a white robe,"[Mk 16:5] as the word for young man (νεανίσκος) occurs in Mark only in these two places.[8]
    The naked fugitive has been speculated to originate in a possible Passion narrative that pre-dates the gospel of Mark. In such an early document, anonymity of the fugitive may protect this individual from official persecution.[9]: Note 8 [1]: 184 .” A lot of people in houses of worship possess morally weak characters. The child me wants to be Kingdom Disciple, but the adult me wants to know if the at truth and wisdom is literal, or figurative, or both.

  • 3 Signs Religious Christianity is Mythology
    “1. The Bible is objectively, scientifically, historically inaccurate.
    There are hundreds of scientifically and historically inaccurate statements in the Bible. The story of creation in Genesis contradicts science. The universe is not 6000 years old, and there was never a magic garden guarded by a flaming sword. Samson’s magical hair didn’t give him the strength to kill hundreds of people with the jawbone of a donkey. Jonah didn’t survive in the belly of a whale for 3 days. There have never been pillars of fire, parting oceans, water turning to blood, talking donkeys or snakes, fruit that gives you eternal life, supernaturally burning bushes, zombies or evil spirits. And prayer doesn’t work.
    Some of these obviously mythological events can be written off as misinterpretations, metaphors or Yahweh working in mysterious ways, but the fact that fictitious events happen all the way through the Bible lends credence to the idea that the Bible on a whole is mythology. If you don’t believe this then ask yourself how absurd the Bible would have to be before you would agree that it’s a myth? If Yahweh literally had sex with Mary, would that smack of mythology to you? If the Bible said Yahweh invented rainbows the day after Jesus died, would that smack of mythology to you? If the Bible said a man lived in the belly of a talking donkey for forty days, would that smack of mythology to you? If the Bible said Jesus had a stand-off with another religion to see who could call down fire on the other to prove who worshiped the one true god, would that smack of mythology to you?
    Christians point to human sacrifices, talking animals, magic and scientifically inaccurate statements in other religions to prove they’re mythologies. Yet when Christianity does the exact same thing, they turn a blind eye. That’s called denial. By Christians’ own standards, Christianity is mythology.” Link: https://churchandstate.org.uk/2017/05/3-signs-christianity-is-mythology/.

  • Religion rhymes with prison! Tradition rhymes with prison!
    “COLLAPSED BOUNDARIES
    You can’t say no, because you are afraid of rejection or abandonment.
    Your identity consists of what you think others want you to be. You are a chameleon.
    You have no balance of power or responsibility in your relationships. You tend to be either overly responsible and controlling or passive and dependent.
    You take on other’s problems as your own.
    You share personal information too soon. . .before establishing mutual trust/sharing.
    You have a high tolerance for abuse or being treated with disrespect.
    Your wants needs and feelings are secondary to others’ and are sometimes determined by others.
    You ignore your inner voice and allow others expectations to define your potential.
    You feel responsible for other’s happiness and fulfillment and sometimes rely on your relationships to create that for you.
    You tend to absorb the feelings of others.
    You rely on others opinions, feelings and ideas more than you do your own.
    You allow others to define your limits or try to define limits for others.
    You compromise your values and beliefs in order to please others or to avoid conflict.
    RIGID BOUNDARIES
    You are likely to say no if the request involves close interaction.
    You avoid intimacy (pick fights, stay too busy, etc.)
    You fear abandonment OR engulfment, so you avoid closeness.
    You rarely share personal information.
    You have difficulty identifying wants, needs, feelings.
    You have few or no close relationships. If you have a partner, you have very separate lives and virtually no shared social life.
    You rarely ask for help.
    You do not allow yourself to connect with other people and their problems.” “By the way, religion loves prude shaming although they pretend to be prudes.” -Antonio Myers

  • Jesus is never offended by my sincere-seeker doubts!

    “For a possible hint of Jesus' historicity, Christian authorities relied heavily on a single brief paragraph in the works of the respected Jewish historian Flavius Josephus, who was born in 37 C.E., served as governor of Galilee, and traveled extensively in the very same area where Jesus allegedly lived and taught. If anyone was in a position to report the wonder-workings of a local holy man in his own parents' generation, it was Josephus, a dedicated reporter of minute details. Yet in all his voluminous works, the single paragraph says only that Jesus was: "a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews, and many of the Gentiles. He was the Christ; and when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, had condemned him to the cross, those that loved him at the first did not forsake him, for he appeared to them alive again the third day, as the divine prophets had foretold these and ten thousand other wonderful things concerning him; and the tribe of Christians, so named from him, are not extinct at this day."2 The problems with this famous passage are many. First of all, it is noticeably out of context with the surrounding material. Second, it did not appear in the early copies of Josephus' works, nor in the second-century version quoted by Origen, who would certainly have mentioned it if it had been there. It does not appear until the beginning of the fourth century, and is first quoted by Bishop Eusebius, the enthusiastic advocate of what he called "holy lying" for the greater glory of the church, known to have been responsible for many interpolations, revisions and blatant forgeries.” Link: https://ffrf.org/about/getting-acquainted/item/12844-the-jesus-myth

  • Humanist Common Ground: Atheism
    “1. The prefix “a” can mean “anti” or “non.” While some atheists are anti-theists, most are non-theists who have no desire to destroy religion. We don’t have a problem with believers until they try to force their beliefs on others.
    2. Atheists are not necessarily protesters, though that’s how they are usually portrayed in the media. When they do protest, they protest government privileging of one religion over another or religion over non-religion.
    3. Atheists are not angry at God (just as they are not angry at the Tooth Fairy), and most of us didn’t become atheists because something bad happened to us. We became atheists because we find no evidence for any gods.
    4. Atheists are not less trustworthy just because we don’t believe in a judging God. Believing that of us only makes us think you would be untrustworthy were it not for your fear of God.
    5. We can find joy without belief in God and an afterlife. We may not see any cosmic purpose of life, but we do find our own joyful purposes in life.
    6. Most religious people are secular most of the time. Ask yourself how you would behave differently if you stopped believing in God. If you can’t come up with a good answer, then you are what I call a functional atheist.
    7. Calling atheism a religion is like calling baldness a hair color. The “religion” of atheism and secular humanism is not taught in public schools, unless you think that conveying the best available scientific information is a religious act. If you wind up abandoning faith in supernatural things because of science, as many do, that is a collateral benefit to critical thinking.
    8. Most atheists don’t go around proselytizing or promoting atheism. For every open atheist you know, there are probably dozens of non-identifying atheists whom you assume are religious. Many are afraid to come out of their atheist closets, and the varied reasons for that would require another list of ten or more things that I wish everyone would know.
    9. Atheists don’t fit your stereotypes. There are good and bad atheists just as there are good and bad Christians, Jews, Muslims, men, women, and any other category. Judge people by their actions and the content of their character, not by their professed religious beliefs.
    10. Most of the atheists I know have a good sense of humor, so I’ll end with a joke: A Jewish atheist hears that the best school in town happens to be Catholic, so he enrolls his son. Things are going well until one day the boy comes home and says, “I just learned all about the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.” The boy’s father is barely able to control his rage. He grabs his son by the shoulders and says, “Joey, this is very important, so listen carefully. There is only ONE God — and we don’t believe in Him!” Link: https://americanhumanist.org/paths/atheism/.

  • Erotic Physician, heal thyself sexually!
    “Pornography is pretty much Taco Bell. Minutely satisfying for minutes at most, easy to become addicted to and you tell only your closest friends that you genuinely enjoy it.
    Regardless of personal feelings toward it, the pornography industry brings in $97 billion globally, and gets 450 million visitors per month. But despite being a federally recognized and taxable industry, many performers who either currently work in it or have left it entirely face a great deal of social stigma when interacting in “polite” society.
    Pornography is more or less mainstream since 70 percent of men and 30 percent of women watch it at least once a month, according to the New York Daily News. Yet the actors involved in the industry are often ostracized because of their past occupations, either through losing teaching jobs, being denied banking services or having no protections under current discrimination laws.”
