Praying in the Capitol rotunda, Lauren Boebert stated that Jesus "went to hell in our place."

31. When I was a kid...

I had fundamentalist Baptists and Seventh Day Adventist and some other Baptist group foisted upon me through my entire childhood, the holidays were hell for me on that part. A couple other religions had serious influence in my childhood though I was not to know of them... Judaism and Catholicism, the two religions of my parents' families.



It was like the great religion wars, back in the 50s and 60s, everybody had to belong to a religion and it had better be xtian.

So I had to read the Bible and recite stuff from it and listen to endless tales of god and jesus and miracles that can't happen anymore since jesus went away except once every couple three centuries when a saint shows up or something. I was implored to choose a sect, I refused because none of them made sense and I had had enough of them controling my life, sending me down a path of subservience and abuse. I had a different, self respecting plan so I left all that behind.

But even with all that, I just don't recall that part.
