"Tradwives" offer an alluring vision of-right wing Christianity — meet the people fighting back

cross-posted from: lemmy.one/post/11673394

Every movement to oppose Christianity had its place. In the 80s they called themselves Satanists, even though they didn’t believe in a literal Satan. In the 2000s we saw the introduction of “militant” atheism, externally dubbed the “new atheists.” Now we have a new generation of ex-Christians who can speak to conservative Christian beliefs because they were able to get out. And they can remind everyone that it wasn’t easy.

I am still a “militant atheist” in that I’m willing to speak my mind. I don’t bring up my atheism unless someone makes their religion my business. The same for these people.

fracture,

fundamentalism is a coping mechanism for a deregulated nervous system

… YEAH. YEAH THAT. THAT’S WHAT I’VE BEEN TRYING TO SAY

(i’ve been thinking about this a lot and never could quite put it into words this eloquently)

Satanists are still out here fighting the good fight, and we still don’t believe in a literal Satan.
