Also you can have questions, you can have moral reactions. You can acknowledge the horrific consequences of what happened. But none of that requires pretending you understand the psychology, diagnosis or even circumstances involved better than the clinicians and people who have actually studied these conditions.

I find it very amusing that a lot of people think it’s much more likely that the prophets and apostles that divinely wrote the very Bibles they’re reading to be wrong than it is for their pastors to be wrong.
Yes, Jesus went around doing good, but you see, good is worth nothing if you don't see the God behind it.
If you notice, Jesus always emphasised it with a certain joy whenever someone recognised him as God and acted accordingly.
From the Centurion to the Syrophoenician woman, to the woman who washes his foot with perfume, he revels in these moments because this is the ultimate enlightenment; to truly see God with you; Emmanuel.
This is why we are vehemently against the gospel of prosperity, it blind people from seeing the God behind the good. you know why? the recipients of Jesus' goodness where the same ones that killed him.
A heart that is untransformed by Jesus' good will always see the good of his hands as the ultimate thing, not the one from whom all things flow.
And they made it into the Bible, which is telling. The Bible is the most coherent book depicting the human condition in detail.
Despair, delight, pessimism, optimism, and everything in between. Human, and God loves it that way.
This is the truth about our Faith, that the Lord died in accordance with the scriptures, that he was buried and he ROSE again in accordance with the scriptures!
One of the two people that provoked divine contemplation & made me feel like I was always before the throne, whenever I listened to every single one of their songs.

nothing will ruin a friendship for me faster than watching someone show up for their other friends in a way they don’t show up for me. you have the capacity, just not for our friendship? no thanks.
Not everything that annoys you, makes you feel hurt or uncomfortable is traumatic or a violence against you. Therapy speak has people acting like they are too fragile to live and have a truly meaningful existence, and that’s very problematic.
Anyway, if you’ve been in the throes of depression(and I’m not even talking about the one money can solve), you’ll empathize with those who commit suicide.
