39:29 as an ex fundie missionary who has been fully out of religion for eight years, this comment brought me a lot of peace. I feel so deflated by a chronic lack of feeling joy, despite so much movement in the opposite direction of the shame and rigidly I was raised under. Shifting through all of the levels and reclaiming our energy is a process!!! I agree with your comment that finding your true nature will narrow your pathway but the going will get easier eventually ❤️ blessings
Spoken beautifully Siofra, everything you spoke on is spot on , I resisted as a toddler , I knew I was being fed a lie , once I picked my first Wiccan book , I had a panic attack , I gently went in and for me everything fit , Im so thankful I followed my mind , body and spirit in such a way I wrote a letter to my childhood church and denounced them , but always in the back of my mind there's a tiny feeling in the back of my mind what could happen on my death bed but I will work through my shadow work ❤ blessed be ❤
I was pressured into being baptized Mormon, around the age of 19 or 20 just because of being helped by the church. They literally have their own grocery store where they bring in families in need of food assistance. And they really scrutinize each family to see if they have missionaries visiting their home and they're going to church and all that. Why not help for the sake of helping? Thanks for the video Siofra 😊
Sorry you were pressured. Christians aren't the only ones, of course, to take advantage of those who are in need. I went to a free meal given by the Hari Krishna group in D.C. and you also have to participate in their ritual before you can eat.
🙏✨ thank you. Been going through this for at least 10 years. It's good. It was rough in the beginning but I'm happy with where I am. You're a really good teacher. It's difficult to talk through.
The Catholic church accepted and practiced the religious beliefs of the countries they went into and then when they built a large obedient enough congregation,they banished the other beliefs by whatever means necessary.
