Thank you for sharing this. I have a similar story and it is so painful to break away. There are beautiful people and rituals and memories, and then there is the deep-down feeling of being duped.

1John 4:16 "..God is love.." Please don't lose your love for God, by the selfish and sinful actions of men. That is not of God, but the enemy. He wants to dupe you. Please don't fall for it.
God who will send you to hell is not a loving and forgiving being. Believe what you like but thinking your answer is better and expecting others to believe as you do is wrong
Maybe you should look at the science of death and dying. A start would be тАЬ10 keys to realityтАЭ by Wilczek. When it comes to death, an orientation beginning with reality is a good start. I am a physician, and have many personal stories about death and dying, and not one of them leads back to an Iron Age God whose very book is filled with retribution against his own creation. That said I appreciate you reaching out, and I do believe life is magnificent, and you intended kindness. Thank you for that.
I didn't describe the most common NDEs as I was hoping those in this conversation who believe in a Iron Age God would view some hoping to confirm this and instead meet a loving Creator who contains all Consciousness. Those that do have no fear afterwards. Religion thrives mainly on fear
I don't believe in "the enemy" either. Humans are capable of both great good and great evil. The universe is itself morally neutral. There's no magical war. There's just reality. Which, once you learn a little about the amazing universe we live in, is quite inspiring enough.
Absolutely agree. By creating тАЬThe RaptureтАЭ the authors of the bible removed all requirements for caring for the earth and environment, any need to prevent damage to the precious planet, all need for education, science, art as it was all futile when тАЬThe RaptureтАЭ could happen at any moment.
The followers of your god believe that I am evil because of gender dysphoria that I did not choose to have. IтАЩll stick with gods who actually love me for me, thanks.

Yeah, but--some man wrote that.
One: why should that matter?, two: how do you know that?
The entire Bible was written by men, preached by men, enforced by men, and benefits men.

Maybe you should look at some of the Near Death Videos and see what kind of God people are actually meeting.

How can you have so much love for the creation, and such apparent disregard for the creator of it?
It's really easy. There's no creator. So there's nothing to disregard.
I am curious how you extrapolated тАШlosing love for godтАЩ in this beautiful self disclosing article?
The followers of your god believe that I am evil because of gender dysphoria that I did not choose to have. IтАЩll stick with gods who actually love me for me, thanks.
There is, quite simply, no such thing.
