I gave them all of my faith because the alternative was death. I was afraid of God because he loved me and I was his - his imperfect child, in need of divine intervention. Did he watch when stress caused my hair fall out, gathering on the drain, by my eighteen year-old feet? I have been spiritually mugged; giving up my faith to a weaponized religion, created by men, who wish to enslave.
