    So one of my teachers for 5th and 6th grade had a wife and two daughters. Very Christian. It was only when we got a little older in junior high school that we realized holy shit Mr S is so gay. It was obvious in retrospect. He was a real powertripping asshole, and thinking back on it I wonder if that behavior came from not letting himself be his true self.

      It’s such a shame what religion does to people. Yeah, it sucked to find out that there’s (probably) nothing else after this life. But on the other hand, I can’t even describe how much of a relief it was to no longer have to think about “sin” as a concept.
