        it’s actually kind of the opposite. the notion that we’re attracted to abusers is something people say to blame people who get abused. it even has a shitty prevalence in psychology.

        If you’re struggling with this, you should watch this video by Theramintrees where he debunks it

          The opposite of what?? My point was that it sounds like victim blaming because instead of blaming the toxic person, it blames the victim but it’s ok since it doesn’t just blame them but tells them to work on it. So instead of saying “it’s your fault, shame on you” it says “it’s because of aspects of yourself and we have to work on them”. Now you link a video that talks about how to work on it, debunking a theory I didn’t even touch on and feel like you destroyed me thoroughly? I never talked about being attracted to abusive people, I talked about who’s to blame and who should work on themselves and your video is about how to work on oneself which is the next logical question and thanks for the context but it doesn’t contradict my comment in any way, shape or form.

    In Mormonism sky daddy came down in physical form to have sex with her. They also believe sky daddy and mommy have lots of sky sex to make all the souls for their planet. So she was definitely his daughter.

      That’s an interesting fact. Never knew it. So they believe “god” came down in physical form and fucked her. Wonder what position he did her in? Was he romantic and did missionary or did he just bend her over.

        My wife was born and raised Mormon and she did not know this, so it is not common knowledge. I had studied Mormonism a lot because I thought it was interesting. When I told her about this she freaked out and told me I was lying.

        She went to her to dad, who was former bishop, and asked him. He confirmed it and her mother said, “isn’t it beautiful?” She was upset for awhile because she was molested as a child and the whole god having sex with his daughter didn’t sit well with her.

          interesting story. The thing I have always loved about the Mormon’s is their deal about when you die you can become your own god and rule over your own planet. Sounds like fun. Too bad it’s all BS

            Oh it is BS for sure. Some other interesting topics about them are blood atonement, mountain meadow massacre, Brigham Young (a real piece of work), divided heaven, fundamentalists, and seer stones to name a few. Way more interesting than your typical Christian religion.

        Luke 1 says the Holy Spirit came on her, so I’m not sure how she got up the duff from that. Maybe she had to scoop up the holy jizz and shove it up herself.

          That would be a very Kool relic to worship if she had just saved in a very nice urn some of the holy jizz

    Major belief of catholosism is Mary was born without sin. She is called the virgin, even after having at least two children. First kid was born out of wedlock and wasn’t her betrotheds either. Best PR spin job ever!
