Seventh grade was hardcore.
it wasn't the first time we learned about slavery or the holocaust, but it's when I had a FANTASTIC civics teacher and he didn't hold back in his lectures.
saw the holocaust pictures, the Atlantic slave trade ship diagrams, andjust enough stuff to really blow away this idea that my mom has raised me to believe, that god loves us all and that this is a just world under his rule.
like, wtf humanity. We also looked at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and little 13 year old me wrote an essay about how the US was evil for having dropped those bombs and how the Iraq war was unjustified.
anyways..
How can god be real when we do things like this to each other?
When we enslave, exterminate, and evaporate, each other?
whats the point?
What's the game?
if you say: all part of gods plan, then what shitty plan is that?
just curious, as children, what were your reactions when you found out that: oh wait, people are FUCKED UP
