Tw: religious abuse, homophobia, mentions of rape, feminism,etc

Please be warned of the TW and to clarify i am Christian but i dont agree with all the Bible has to say

to the Christians out there i know not everyone is like this but many Christians are 

please give me your thoughts at the end of this 

thank you 

and again no hate this is real talk and not many people talk about this but ive noticed alot of toxic things in Christianity now a days

Thank you now lets get into this




For years Christianity has been around. 2.38 billion people in the world are part of Christianity (or falls under the Christian category ) and in all honesty there is a dark side to Christianity 

some pastors/christians

rape their fellow church members (kids included)

belittle mental health and blame it on the devil or a demon

hate on Lgbtq+ people

hate on other religions

are controlling to women because women were 'made' to serve men

blame medical disorders on demons or the parents of the child (autism and such)

some dont believe in getting medical help or sicknesses because they believe God will heal them (cancer and such)

they say to not sin and yet they sin themselves

they are so pushy

they push and force their religion onto people and their children at a young age

they are not open minded to other people

they support rapist ,murders  etc (by saying they can change and are 'blessed' by God and his will)

they feel/say they are here to serve God's will

racist towards many (there are still all white churches )

they say they accept everyone yet they dont

etc




there is so much more that is wrong with Christianity  now a days , some feel as if they are superior that they have to push/force their religion onto people so they can serve God.

let me tell you some stories of the negatives i have listed above


Rape:

My aunt was married to a pastor of a church in american , my family went to that church for years since my sister was born (now 26 f) and since the pastor was family my parents were really close to him , there was sunday school for the kids there and at the time my sister was 7 years old and she was supposed to be in sunday school but she needed to use the restroom so she went to the church (the school and church were separate) the pastor was out of service and was in the hallway (another pastor was taking over the church) he saw my sister and told her to follow him to another room to help him with something and since he was our uncle and our family trusted him she followed. He took her to the way back of the church (supply room) and raped her, told her to keep quite unless she wanted something worse to happen. so as the scared 7 year old she was, she kept quiet she told no one , not our parents or other siblings no family no friends no one. and it was a repetitive thing. he raped her every sunday and she was scared of him so she did as she was told. it went on until she was 10 years old. the only reason my mother found out was because my sister had hand prints on her neck and waist from how he was holding her my mother asked her where she got those hand prints and she still tried staying quite until finally she told my mother everything.  My mother kept it to herself, until my sister was 11 years old and then finally my mother told my father, she didnt tell the police but she told the church. my aunt protected him and even family protected him until finally he said that it was the truth and he is already praying to god for forgiveness, the church fucking forgave him, he said sorry to my mother , not to my sister. and he claimed he was better now that the only reason he did it was because a demon was controlling him but now he was in God's hands  so everyone forgave him. the only reason my aunt divorced him was because my father  threatened her to call the police on him . now with my sister being 26 she just got therapy for that in 2021 because my parents thought it was no big deal and that prayer could help her. before my mother passed my parents forgave him and allowed him to come back into our lives. nothing ever happened to him and he was never punished and everyone (besides me my sister and our siblings) forgave him. even the church, how fucked up is that just because he 'went into the hands of God' what bullshit. (there are so many cases of pastors or Christians raping people in and out of church)
