    My wife is publishing a queer YA novel through Amazon and their family is questioning them about their salvation again. My wife and I were raised evangelical but left the church and later deconstructed. We hide that from their family. Their mother literally told them she’s having nightmares about not being able to spend eternity in heaven with them. My wife finally put together why their family is so worried about it all of a sudden. It’s 100% the Zion shit. They genuinely believe the end times are coming.

      That’s the kind of shit religion does to people. They can’t just be proud of their child for their accomplishment…
