I do see where you're coming from and I do appreciate the kind words though.

Honestly, I am Christian n lived in a Bible belt state (not for that reason, it was just where life landed me at the time), and I'm here to tell you, people there - at least the 100 or so I met, are anything but "Christian", or if they are they twisted the Bible to fit their purposes rather than changing themselves to fit the Bible. I had to get out of there bc I felt myself and saw myself losing evermore of my sanity. Getting out of there proved to be an almost insurmountable task ...but after 15yrs, I finally accomplished it. People here are odd and like playing mind games. I don't like it here for that reason either, but people there enjoyed, even thrived off causing one another pain and hardship. If you are able to withstand it and maintain your sanity, you are much stronger than I.
