Adulting

So you made it. You're an adult.  But what does that mean?

For some it means they now get to explore and strengthen their faiths on their own, perhaps with their pastor parents guidance.

But that didnt happen to me.  Hi I'm Riley I have been outside of my extremely strict, borderline abusive, brainwashing, step fathers regime.  I have become my own person and have learned so many new things about the world and myself. 

Many of the things in this book I no longer agree with. Some of the rants I look back and shake my head on.  I was so unaccepting back then because I was afraid to accept myself.

I curse like a sailor, I lie sometimes, I don't  go to church anymore.  I am not perfect in any means. I am asexual and biromantic. I try not to judge people. I try to treat everybody fairly no matter what their background or current situation is. Because now I embrace being a sinner. 

I see so often these "devout Christians" ignore scripture and use it to be racist and bitgotted. I have seen churches turn against my family too many times in order to trust them. (Now my stepfather does facebook ministry instead of pastoring a church)

I just wanted to say that I am sorry for being a bigot in my past. And I am sorry if I offend anyone by my personal decisions.

Don't  condemn me or make me try to change just accept me. Because thats what Jesus would do.

So what happens when you no longer have the label of Pastors Kid on you?

You get to be you.
