She's my cousin, 62 years old. I've posted about her on D.U. She's the one who takes Ivermectin to

ward off Covid.

Well now, she's in the process of being evicted.... non payment of rent.


Me: "H... you gotta start going through things. What can you keep? Can you store things in a storage bin?" She admits to being a hoarder so getting shit organized will be a project with only a couple of days to organize a move.

Me: "H... do you have friends that will let you you couch surf?" This is serious. If you can, you need to move before the judge orders your eviction. It will be on public record for 7 years and it will not be easy to rent another place"


Her response: "I'm not doing anything for the time being. God will provide."


Me: "H... it's time to grow up. There is no magic guy in the sky who is going to swoop down and pay the rent so that you can stay in the apartment."

Her: Well He's always taken care of things for me in the past."

She is deeply religious and I feel guilty for dumping on her.

1. 'There is no magic guy in the sky who is going to swoop down and pay the rent so that you can stay

in the apartment." so that you can stay in the apartment."'

Good.

'Sorry' She is deeply religious. It's TRUE 'There is no magic guy in the sky.'

2. Sadly sometimes people have to learn the hard way in order to wake up.

Sadly at she’s going to face some bad consequences.

3. Such a sad situation

[Warpy]

4. You can't really help someone who is so opposed to helping herself

You want to help but you can't. Forcing the issue isn't helping, either.

Maybe you could approach her church, tell them she needs help.

God isn't going to do a thing for her but they might.

5. "God helps those that help themselves"

I imagine that wouldn't be well received, or at least wouldn't move the needle enough to make a difference.

6. If she's evicted, hopefully she won't think it's because jeebus

didn't feel she was not strongly supporting TFG.

7. It's George Soros and the deep state.

8. Of course people like this never question why

their sky invisible wizard causes or allows them to get into dire straits in the first place.

9. What is this "God will solve all my problems for me" malarkey?

I was raised in a religious home and taught to believe in a supreme being, but I was NEVER taught that it was okay to sit around with my head up my ass and wait for God to solve all my problems with no little or no effort on my part. I was taught that God helps those who help themselves.

People who expect God to just swoop down and handle everything for them are a big part of why some atheists think all people of faith are idiots, and I hate that. 😠

Good luck with your cousin, 3Hotdogs. She sounds like a handful. 😔

10. I sympathize with you - it's a tough deal for those around her too

As much as you can, try not to get sucked into the problems of her creation.

[Hekate]

11. Are there any other family members who can help with an intervention?

I don’t mean bundles of cash — I mean trying to talk some sense into her. This is sad.

12. Anyone falling for the invermectin hoax is not thinking straignt. Looks like...

belongs onto the sidewalk if she's relying on the sky god.

[Croney]

13. If she's a hoarder, she has a mental illness.

The magic guy in the sky gave it to her I guess.

[KarenS]

14. I like the approaching her church suggestion. n/t

[3Hotdogs]

15. I have no idea what church she attends. She is in Ca. I am in N.J.

I am the only relative that communicates with her. Others don't want to hear the "light beams, crystals an Jesus" stuff.

[Ferrets are Cool]

16. Please don't feel guilty.

And when she gets evicted, and she will, it will be part of God's plan OR an attack by the devil.
I have never understood why an outcast angel has so much power. We never discuss Michael pulling off miracles and such. And he wasn't even thrown out on his keister.
