The more I learn about judaism the more I wonder where tf christianity got all its bad shit. Why is divorce a sin in christianity when judaism has recognized the right to divorce for nearly a millennia and has codified religious laws for it. Why does christianity consider sex to be dirty (to the point where puritans considered it a sin to enjoy having sex with your own spouse) when in judaism it's considered holy and it's a literal mitzvah to have sex with your spouse on the sabbath. Why does christianity consider it a sign that you're faithless if you question your religion when in judaism that's considered an essential part to developing your faith. I'm probably stating the obvious here but I still can't get over the fact that there's no historical basis to any of this shit before christianity started, it's like christians just said "hey guys what if we took the torah and built a new religion around it but this time it was actively hostile to human life"

#rambling #disclaimer this isnt about individual christians im speaking about the religious trauma i experienced in my own life etc etc #these are just a few examples that I've noticed but they're definitely something #the part about sex in particular shocked me bc sex is pretty much viewed as actively evil in a lot of christian denominations #like you should only do it to create children and if you take pleasure in it (even if its with your own spouse) youre a dirty sinner #there arent as many examples like this nowadays but if you read puritan laws about sex it's like #you're allowed to have sex with your wife basically 10 times a year but you have to be fully clothed with the lights off #and you cant have sex on a holiday or a sunday and you cant touch each other and you have to try as hard as possible to hate it #literally WHERE did that mindset come from?? like for real #in judaism having sex with your spouse is basically considered a celebration of everything holy #and if you have sex on the sabbath (the holiest day in the jewish calendar—above every holiday) #its considered TWICE as holy #make it make sense #this is one of the things people mean when they say that lumping judaism in with christianity as 'abrahamic' religions is meaningless #theyre literally nothing alike #the only similarity is the torah but thats only half of the christian bible and one third of the jewish one #AND christianity interprets most of it completely differently from how judaism does #im tired #greatest hits #hall of fame

I might not be a girl or a woman anymore, but I will never forget the way that 8 year old me had to wear a t-shirt under her summer sundress. She was told that it would be her fault if a man saw her shoulders and was tempted to sin.

I have seen little kids out in “immodest” clothing: tank tops with dinos, polkadotted short shorts, unicorn crop tops. You know how many of those children I’ve had sinful thoughts about?

None.

Imagine being such a spineless fucking pedophile that you blame the child for daring to have a body.

Remember when the men said to Christ, “the scantily-clad woman is causing us to have impure thoughts!”

They waited to hear “she must cover her body.”

Instead, Christ replied “if your hand betrays you, cut it off; and if your eyes cause you to sin, gouge them out.”

It’s high time to bring that back.

#at 8 I had just been baptized. which is where they ask if you will join the church. a thing that they had been grooming you to do from birth #and at 12 they call you a young woman and prepare you for marriage. #fuck the church #rain speaks #exmo #excult #exchristian #victim blaming #implied csa #eye trauma #exmormon #ex catholic #cult survivor #ex christian #ex jw #apostate #anti mormon #hall of fame

My thoughts on the little mermaid live action...

The little mermaid was one of my favorite movies growing up, and even though the live action was not perfect and had the same problems as a lot of remakes, it was better then I expected and even with it's flaws, at least the movie carried the themes of the original tale and had some heart. The second half is really where the film starts to pick up and I like some of the chances to the land arc.

The ending acully made me a little emotional because even though it's a happy ending there was also a sence of melancholy. Ariel has everything she ever wanted and is following her own path, but she has a moment to mourn the live she is leaving behind. It's a part of growing up and I like how film show how the little mermaid is a young woman's coming of age journey, both the joy and sadness of it.

And the part where Jodi gave Halle the fork, passing down the magic of Ariel got me right in the feels.😭

I like all the references to the original fairytale by Hans Christian Anderson like the quote in the beginning of the film and the joke about killing the prince.

Ariels mermaid tale is everything I hope it would, it's just so beautiful and magical. I also love how they styled Hailey Bailey's hair, the dreadlocks with loose strands of hair made her look like a sea goddess and I love it.

Halle Bailey was perfect as Ariel and so was Jonah hauer-king as Eric, and there honestly the best part of the film.The chemistry between them was adorable and reminded me of Ella and Kit from Chinderella 2015. I also love how the film highlights how Ariel and Eric are kindred spirits, both longing for freedom and to be understood.

Honestly it's nice to have a romantic fairytale again and I'm glad this movie embraced the love story and even improve it from the original movie. (not that OG Ariel and Eric where necessarily bad or anything but the romance was updated in a way that works for the modern-day without disrespecting the value of the love story.)

I really enjoyed the film and even though there are things I didn't like, the film got enough right and at least understood the core of this tale and had some sincerity, as a fan of the original that's all I could have ask for.
