America has a weird relationship with cults where they’re terrified of small cults (or organizations they think are cults) but completely normalized massive cults that hurt many more people (eg: LDS Church, Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Amish, Scientology, most Megachurches)

So one thing I’ve noticed is that people’s DnD characters may vary but there is usually an underlying thread that they all have in common. This thread is typically related to what that person struggles with the most.

For instance, my betrotheds DnD characters: a bitchy warlock we had to bust out of two different pacts, a sassy barbarian, a reformed drow cultist, and a sunshine fighter cleric.

All these characters were wildly different but at their very core struggle was them grappling with their self worth. My betrothed struggles with their worth a great deal and even with different facets showing their characters all have that too.

Mine all tend to contend with different themes of loneliness and acceptance. Surprise, surprise, the little autistic gremlin yearns to have been met with more love and lasting friendships.

So we’re at breakfast. I am meeting a new friend of my betrotheds for the first time. It’s been twenty minutes since I’ve met this man. I say my theory. He laughs. He starts to describe a few of his characters but specifies that he often has healing aspects. He gives a very broad overview of their character arcs.

I ponder for a moment then said, “Would you like to have my assessment?”

He laughed, “Sure!”

“We’ve just met. It’s gonna get real.”

“Bring it on.”

“I think your struggle is that you feel you must offer something of value or service to people to be worthy of their love.”

His jaw dropped. His fork froze midway to his mouth. A potato fell. He stared into space as this sank in. Quietly he said, “Oh.”

TBH I don’t think it should be legal to deny your child healthcare based off your own religious belief. I’m sorry. Maybe not my most nuanced take. This isn’t even about Jehovah’s Witnesses and Christian Scientists and sects that do not believe in medical procedures. I am from a super religious area in the south and I have seen so many evangelicals use the “religious exemption” loophole to avoid vaccinating their children while still allowing them to attend youth activities or school. Like, I don’t recall any part of Baptist doctrine that supports that and furthermore your right to religion should not supersede your child’s right to not die of a preventable illness.

We’ve seen even more extreme cases with evangelical sects where children have been neglected to death during ‘exorcisms’ or faith healing attempts and these cases rarely make it to trial even though the parents (and often religious leaders) directly caused the death.

And I am absolutely not saying ‘snatch babies from their home due to their parents religious beliefs’ there was this epic ‘parents rights’ trial where two parents were trying to defend their right to deny their daughter with cancer healthcare and it ended with the state having medical power of attorney over the child and the parents still having physical custody. Which is probably the best call in many of these situations. Parents should not have a right to neglect their children to death.

just overheard my dad on the phone going “yeah, i’d be more than happy to buy her daughter off of you, how much would you be willing to trade her for?” and got Very Worried for a second before remembering that he manages dairy farms for a living. surely there’s gotta be a better way to word that man
