Honestly, that's fucking genius. They should do murals on elevators doors that change as they open
That's not necessarily true for all religions. In Hinduism and Buddhism, for instance, it's fully understood that a lay understanding of the faith is not the same as what a monk would have. Seeking enlightenment is a different path from the life of a householder. In the same vein, Christian mysticism, kaballah, Sufism all have that same tendency towards further spiritual study and the path of an aesthetic.
The problem is with people listening to fucked up preachers and then deciding they have all the information they'll ever need. The problem is with Christians, not Christianity. The religious, not the religion. The religion itself is a neutral thing, just about regardless of the religion we're talking about. It's the people that make it what it is, and those people are varied. Religions are internally diverse, by their nature.
Happened to me way too often as a kid (from other kids, never my family), and I've only just now begun to realize it's why I feel such embarrassment if I ever allow myself to get excited/show excitement. God forbid I ever let myself get animated, I end up laying in bed every night for literal weeks afterwards replaying it through some fucked up filter that just gets worse and worse until I'm convinced I've humiliated myself irrevocably, and I stop interacting with other humans for a long time. The only places I can allow myself to be excited/animated are online and with my family.
Recently went to visit a friend and ended up getting positively hyped while helping one of his friends build a rube goldberg machine. Friend I went to visit ended up having a medical episode, and mentioned in his drugged up state that he was a little jealous of how quickly I and his friend hit it off, and I still haven't recovered. Me and rube goldberg machine guy really clicked, but I haven't been able to bring myself to even text the guy because I can't get past the embarrassment of it. Friend I visited said it was like watching Romeo and Juliet meet.
This is the way. And I sleep HOT. I will uncover my whole body and leave my feet covered. I cannot sleep with uncovered feet
Is there somewhere to buy these? I'd love to send them to about 75 relatives.
Personally I was only 14-16 for like 5 years at most
