How liberating it must be to just dump everything single thing on "god's will", and have to worry about nothing, ever.
It's fucking depressing... This isn't even about religion, it's about untreated, likely even undiagnosed, mental illness.
My mental illness works in mysterious ways
No kidding. They’ll do something shitty then apologize to their imaginary friend in their head and move along while the rest of the world burns.
yea the annoying thing is they won't feel remorse too, they will just say it was God's will, we will try again.
Read the story. That's literally what they did. They had two more kids after they killed Abigail. And in court they said they would do exactly the same thing again.
I could only stomach a couple lines so what I wrote was completely a guess
I mean, prison, after all, not the most liberated of places
And it makes me wonder how lonely it must feel to try contact a being that never replies anything back.
Or maybe they feel like it does talk back? I don't know.
From experience with these sorts of folks, they take positive things as the reply, and just don't think about negatives. The rare negative that they can't ignore gets blamed on other people who aren't believers, or whatever their version of 'the devil' is.
