Dang that was a wild read. Watching them on some of the links in the article be committed to the act, knowing full well it’s an act, still hurt me. I feel something stirring in my mind because of it.

I also really liked the part where they got to meet Dr. Temple Grandin and the conversation that followed. I use to work in a slaughterhouse for cows and we learned a bit about her methods. I wanted to learn a bit about slaughtering animals firsthand. That was an experience, I lasted 3 weeks.

Yea I could see benefits to that kind of thing. One of the greatest benefits of religion is the sense of community and belonging it can offer. It’s easy to get wrapped up in delusional thinking, existence is terrifying, especially when anything can happen at any time for no real reason or warning, thinking something will protect you or care for you sounds like a comforting escape. A community of people with the focus theme being embracing non-religion, supporting each other through fellowshipping, meaning meeting regularly and talking about our shared problems, and focusing on helping each other and the community could be a beautiful thing. Without the focus on theme I feel like a lot of these groups exist already. Lots of non-profits to get involved with that offer community and a sense of belonging.

That’s what I’m saying. Maybe this couple scored the baby at the campground for $500 and some seedy weed and were trying to flip the baby for profit.

I encourage people to use drugs in the most dangerous way possible. Occasionally kidnapping people from hospitals or rehabs and then dump them on the streets.
