Truly tired, truly a psychologist. Striving to remain intact in an increasingly chaotic world. Studying Japanese to give my brain a project besides obsessing over US politics. #LGBT#Exvangelical
@Teri_Kanefield And his psychological needs (i.e., endless narcissistic supply) are at odds with his needs as a criminal defendant. His thirst for narcissistic supply is absolutely unquenchable. He’s a simultaneously pitiful and dangerous creature.
@LadyDragonfly This is so unbelievably wild. Your description of what happened is only the second I’ve encountered. One of the podcasts I listen to also accurately described it. The level of drama over a single can of beer is so positively bonkers 🤷🏻♀️
@TheRaDR, YES!!! and thank you. I wish anyone well who seeks to have those conversations within Christian community. There are some who do. Most can’t and/or won’t. After decades of attempting honest discourse on topics of privilege, power and harm, I found I had to leave for my own well-being. So much good could come from an embrace of both honesty and nuance. And yet… Thank you for your voice and your work.
@TheRaDR Thank you so much for your book, and for this idea in particular. It has been helpful beyond measure in putting words on harmful rhetoric re: forgiveness in evangelical/fundamentalist Christian contexts. Thank you, thank you.
