      Fiction books don't actually "prove" anything about psychology and social science because - brace yourself - they are made up

      You would think this would be obvious but no The worst was when I had a Christian teacher read us the story "The Monkey's Paw" and then warn us that the story proved messing with the occult is no laughing matter

      I’m seeing all the likes come in on the post & it leaves me shaking my head. Was this really “the worst?” Like it was so awful that a Christian teacher read a fable to you that warned against the occult? So bad that it weighs on you still to this day? Really? This is your worst?

      It's not the worst thing that ever happened to me but it's the stupidest example of someone making a spurious argument from fiction to make a point about real life

      It "weighs on me" how fucking stupid it was, even among the many many stupid things I was "taught" my Christian teachers growing up

      The fact that you are holding on to this is concerning. Nothing that irrelevant should populate your daily thought process.

      Why? It's a really weird thing that happened. It's like, you want to dismiss this bizarre situation where a teacher contorted fiction in an awful way to suit their agenda as nothing, but simultaneously pathologize the simple act of remembering it.

      You do realize that the story is literally about some weird teacher being frightened of the fable, right? Like that's the point of the story, that she treated the monkey's paw as something worthy of real world fear. You are being very silly, is the point.

      I strongly disagree with you. You think the teacher from his childhood was ACTUALLY frightened by the story in real life? You know this to be true? Who is being silly? It’s not an extraordinary occurrence by any stretch. It’s very ordinary.

      If he wasn't actually afraid of the literal possibility of calling up demons by making wishes then he was lying to us, which I consider to be worse Either way it's fucked up

          For the record, this was middle school, not elementary school So it was insulting, in my view, to be very seriously asked to literally believe in demons and to avoid playing D&D and whatnot out of fear of possession at the age of 13 But if I'd been younger it'd be worse

          This does remind me of boyscout camp where a couple of the older scouts "confsicated" another guy's entire magic card collection and burned it because it was "sacriligeous."
