I am *not* against them. I know at least 2 ppl in my life that were Christians that were nice to me. *This is part of my process of trusting Christians that are not abusive*. For me, the way to break that cycle and that fear is to talk about what happened to me.

thanks,

Hi Carol - I can understand being scared of Christians with such traumatic experiences. I've had negative experiences as a person with a disability by some "Christians" who believed I was evil (among other things).

Breaking the cycle is important. Religious/spiritual abuse is *real* and I'm sorry that you've experienced it.

Peace.
