Default Re: In a process of leaving the Local Church

Those struggling to leave the local church should know that you can recover from The Recovery.

God will not judge you and rain calamity down on you. Life is better out of the LC.

However the local church is like heroin. When you ingest it it modifies each cell in your body to become dependent on the LC juice to function. So there will be withdrawal and pain.

And you will always be a recovering Recoveryoholic.

Maybe we need to come up with a 12 step program for recoveryoholics. First rule : avoid contact with cults. You'll be weak for them.

I know it sounds like I'm making light of coming out of the LC. But I'm not. I know how hard it is. It took me more than 3 yrs to get the programming out of my head. And there was no internet, nor friends or family to help me thru it. I had cut them all off. It was very painful to deprogram myself.

So if you are leaving the LC gird up your loins and face it like it's the death of a loved one. Cuz it is a similar loss. It was for me.
