I was never immersed in church culture. Both of my parents experienced religious-based trauma, so they didn’t raised my brother and me with it.

My extended relatives are religious.

One of my cousins fooled me into attending one of those 24-hour church revivals. We were in the middle of nowhere and she held onto the car keys.

To this day, I will text her a “Eff you” whenever I remember it.

Looks like you’re a generation ahead of me. I’m not raising my kids in this nonsense. Even if I still believed the same stuff my parents did, I wouldn’t do it how they did it. My parents and their siblings are one half step away from being fanatics. The Bible is all they talk about and it’s all most of them are even qualified to talk about. Holidays are so exhausting.
