This video explores the deep and often controversial relationship between sex, sin, and Christianity. Why has sexuality been so tightly controlled by religious teachings? How did natural human desires become labeled as sinful?

Sex, Sin and Christianity

Every day I think ‘must do an #introduction on here‘ then I can’t find the words. I’ll try 🫣

Ex #cult #sect - raised 5th gen inside a high control religious group. Made a few questionable career choices and worked inside accounting & finance for 17 years. Left and co-founded a #Bcorp bedding brand #socialenterprise #GoKindly

Love #reading (I’ll read pretty much any genre except horror)

Emerging #writer - working on #memoir about growing up in a cultish group & the difficulties leaving high-control communities, #religiouscontrol & #coercivecontrol #ptsd

#feminist …one who gets cranky with the mainstream version. My #feminism is lived & alive. It knows class, race, sexuality, culture, disability and gender all intersect & play out differently in experiences.

This story is awful.
Now imagine this is all happening & being said to you because of religious beliefs, & ‘so you don’t go to hell’ - & you have religious coercive control. #coercivecontrol #cult #religiouscontrol

‘His intention was to kill my mother, then come for us’

A daughter recalls growing up in the grip of what we now call coercive control, but what she then thought were just her father’s ‘unique’ ways.

@TRobinson Tautoko, we can but hope and do everything in our power to prevent the worst happening. Education & examples I find are the key. When people I know say they hate labour and will vote nats I ask why, when they say they are struggling, I ask how they think they will struggle less under nats, often they don't know, they just listen to RW rhetoric, so I can be attempt to inform them. Anecdotes. Facts. Figures. #SocialConscience #SocialJustice #HumanRights
