Wow, Is The Bible Really Bonkers?

 I'm straying from my normal positive posts to do a post on something that might tick off a few people, but if you've read the bible, I encourage you to feel free to look these up and argue with me. Then tell me how I'm supposed to interpret these. Oh, and if you tell me, "We don't do that now," then also please enlighten me on why we still bible smack LGBT+ people and tell them it's a sin. I'M WAITING.

Okay, thank you.

Oh, so you do think LGBT+ people should go to hell? Why don't we gouge out your eye for looking at the girl's breasts, or cut out your tongue for lying? Oh shoot, you got a divorce? Well, you're getting stoned, and I don't mean with a nice little weed that you can easily buy. I mean with a nice sized rock. Is your afternoon free? You good with dying? Great! Cause after all, that's also a sin.

Still want to argue that we need to take the bible literally?

Let's take another rule - Deuteronomy 25:11-12. "If two men are fighting and the wife of one of them comes to rescue her husband from his assailant, and she reaches out and seizes him by his private parts, you shall cut off her hand. Show her no pity." Well sucks for you ladies, you thought you were protecting your husband and accidentally grabbed the other guy's private parts, there goes your hand.

And this is what little kids - 8 and 9 and 10 and 11 and 12 year olds are supposed to be reading?

What about the other popular church story that even 4 year olds learn? I'll summarize.

God: Go kill your son.

Abraham: Hey Isaac, let's go on a walk.

Isaac: Um, there's no sacrifice with us.

Abraham: Ah... hahahahaha... *nervously wipes neck* So God told me to kill you, so...

Little kids are supposed to grow up believing that if God told their parents to, their parents would kill them? And if their parents said no they wouldn't, their parents would show that they don't have a solid faith, and if they said yes, the kids would be scared out of their wits that this being would tell their parents to kill them. Totally cool, right?

Maybe I'll make another post, but have fun with this one. :)

Be awesome, be brilliant. <3

 Oh, there you are! What does it cost to be kind? It costs only a few seconds and some humility. Maybe it can be humbling to be kind. But so long as you do it with a pure heart, it is worthy and valid. The cost of kindness is little, but the gift of kindness can be everything, even as much as a life. You never know the impact a smile or virtual hug can have on someone. Or saying, "I love you," or, "I'm here for you." So spread some love and kindness, cause the world needs it. And if you haven't heard it in a while, I love you. I support you. I'm so proud of you. You're doing amazing things and you've come too far to back down; never stop fighting on. You can you this, you've got this. I believe in you. I love you! 💓💗

Hey, you there-

 Hey you. Yes, I mean you. Stop and take a minute to read. Worst case scenario it'll take an entire 3 minutes and you can get back on with your life, okay? I need to tell you something. It's super important. You need to hear it, it'll be a good word, I promise. You are the most beautiful human I've ever seen. Even when you cry, cause I know life is hard and it throws nasty curveballs at you a lot. Even when you want to give up, you're stunning, because of how long and far you've come and fought already. Wow, I'm so proud of you. You've done so much already and you're not even done yet. <3 You're magical, you're so amazing. I wish I were half as wonderful as you, you are so perfect the bar is impossible to reach. You're perfect how you need to be. You're battling and winning, even if you're losing for now. You'll win this. :) You have this, I believe in you. Can you believe in yourself? I can't believe how much you'v

Oh, hi there! There you are!

 There you are! I've been looking for you all over! It's been hard to track you down, but whew- Wow, was it worth it! Just look at you! You're gorgeous! That made my hunting very worth all the struggle, cause don't you look stunning today!  I had a special message for you, I wanted you to hear it, it's why I've been desperate to find you- And here you are, so yay! Listen, sometimes you have to let go of stresses that you don't know you have, but they result in freedom. If a site or a place repeatedly doesn't feel right, let it go. Don't tie yourself down to a toxic atmosphere, toxic people, or toxic work in the guise that "It'll get better," because it won't. You just get used to the toxicity. You get used to the pain, manipulation, you bend to their will and let them use you and no longer fight for your beliefs of what is right. You may not recognize it as toxic at first, but when you leave it'll feel like you suddenly stopped
