Yeah one of the ways evangelical Christianity messes you up is it actively pushes you to rewrite history and memory They give you a universal life script (sin, repentance, salvation) and tell you to remember your life that wayhttps://twitter.com/mcjulie/status/1348682609384067072 …

The sense of control and comfort people get from having something to thank when things go well is not, in my view, worth the burden of being Job and being stuck looking for a reason when things go wrong

I honestly don't know how people find that comforting. Every bad thing that happens to someone is for a reason? What, the power that decided that couldn't have picked someone else?

The only thing I've seen that's worse is "God is testing me" when a parent loses a child. Not only is that incredibly self-centered, seeing the child as no more than an object orbiting the parent, but it speaks so poorly of their god.
