Random thoughts on Greg Locke & a rant—
People have moved from 2,000+ miles away just to attend Greg Lockes cult tent.
From Arizona to Tennessee. Left their jobs. Their family. Tore their children from their schools. Left everything they’ve known. Just to attend his cult tent. And subject their children to it.
“Why’d you move out here?”
No. Locke did. Locke is a cult leader. And a poor one at best.
People have uprooted their entire lives just to hear rage rants in person very week.
To hear how autistic people are possessed. How books need to be burned. How witches need to be hunted. How women need to be property. And how Christian’s are apparently somehow oppressed.
This is what people are uprooting their entire lives for. But we’re the hateful ones? We’re the ones who need to stop? We’re the ones oppressing??? RIGHT. LOGICAL. Not a manipulated mindset AT ALL. Cool.
We’re the misguided ones yet they’re literally moving their whole lives across the country just to commit idolatry & then tell everyone else they’re going to hell for committing idolatry because most people just so happen to live in the real world.
We’re misguided for being educated. For demanding accommodation. For demanding the world starts allowing autistic people to live comfortably & unapologetically. For demanding religious coexistence and perspective. For demanding women be treated as humans. And for demanding the actual T R U T H.
We’re misguided for wanting humans to progress as a species? To stop destroying each other? Wtf???
I understand many things to a fault. It’s a gift and a curse to understand so much without judgement. This though. This one. This is one I will not accept and I will judge it indefinitely.
Yet that’s not helpful. Cult leaders keep cult members by instilling fear of the outside world.
The outside world needs to show cult members there’s kindness outside of their organization. The outside world isn’t as scary as they’ve been misguided to believe.
I can’t stand these people. But I can’t help but understand them either. I can’t help but know I need to show them kindness if I ever want to see a future where this kind of hate doesn’t exist in such a vast population.
I can’t stand that I understand them & I can’t morally stand that I need to be nice to them. I can’t stand that I need to be the change I want to see in this regard.
And I really can’t stand that human nature has allowed for such a comforting, spirit lifting idea such as spiritual thought to turn into something so hateful, oppressive, murd3r0us, and malicious.
Religion will be the foundation that built the self destruct button of the human race — if we can’t find compromise and perspective of & for one another.
Nobody needs saving in this context. We need to save each other.
