Being A Young Adult Is So Strange. You Enter A Coffee Shop. The 20 Year Old Girl Waiting Behind You Cried

Being a young adult is so strange. You enter a coffee shop. The 20 year old girl waiting behind you cried all night because she just came to a new city for university and she feels so alone. That 27 year old guy over there works a job he is overqualified for, he lives with his parents and wants to move out but doesn't know what to do about it. That one 24 year old dude already has a car, a house, and a job waiting for him once he graduates thanks to his dad's connections. The 26 year old barista couldn't complete his higher education because he has to work and take care of his family. The 28 year old girl sitting next to you has no friends to go out with so she is texting her mother. That couple (both 25 years old) are married and the girl is pregnant. The 29 year old writing something on her laptop has realized that she chose the wrong major so she is trying to start all over. We are not alone in this, but we are actually so alone. Do you feel me

Writing Prompt: Modern Retelling

I would love to see a modern retelling of "God Vs The Morning Star" but instead of the story being like:

"demons and hell are sexy fun badasses and God is boringly evil👿"

it's an updated story where the Devil is truly evil in the most horrifying way possible as society has developed an updated idea of what true evil is.

Take Christianity which has been oversaturated with mysogynistic ableistic conservatives and make the Devil the personification of evil who wishes to corrupt everyone into those assholes.

For example, "The Devil believes that women should be slaves and Lilith is the original not-feminist Girlboss who is willing to throw all other women down in order to succeed"

or

"The Devil left Heaven once he saw that God was allowing gay people to exist without torturing them."

or

"The Devil is a massive abuser who will try and manipulate anyone into believing that it was his daddy issues that made him this way so that's why it's perfectly okay for him to do whatever he wants"

Instead of the Devil being an insanely attractive perfect guy with a bad boy exterior, why don't you make him an abusive incel with a huge superiority complex and the most manchild-infused tantrums ever?

Make God the omniscient compassionate God they are supposed to be.

Make evilness seem unattractive, immature, and horrible to be the victim of.

Make goodness the most attractive option

Usually I wouldn't post my Facebook pfp to tumblr because people think hamster wheels are animal abuse but I think I've fostered a good enough following to show you guys. Its from when we saw an ambassador animal under the supervision of a zookeeper when I got to meet a binturong and he decided I looked like a very climbable tree and scurried up onto my head. If you guys wanna see it tell me and I'll post it :3

Hi @god-offical help a dude out will ya? This one's having a bad day

How to Talk to God:

- A step-by-step tutorial

Step 1: Tell him everything.

You will wonder why you need to tell him these things about yourself, for God is supposed to be all-knowing.

Do not question him. He is all-knowing. He is simply giving you a chance. He does not have to provide you with a chance.

Step 2: Beg for His forgiveness.

It’s best to do so on your knees, knelt at the altar. No matter where you are in the world, God will always be looking down on at you.

But you don’t look very remorseful with your shoulders held high, it’s better for you to be low enough to kiss the Earth He created for you.

Show Him your guilty hands and pray that He will wipe them clean.

Step 3: Be grateful.

God has given you more than you could ever understand. It is true that He might not answer every prayer that escapes your lips, but God knows that now is not the time.

Yes, He is all-powerful, I don’t know why you would ever question that. Here, put a few bills in this basket, the higher the offering the stronger the faith.

He knows more than you could ever comprehend. Trust in Him, and He will provide.

Step 4: Have unwavering faith.

You know, the reason God hasn’t answered your calls is because He can feel your faith wavering. Though, I’m sure Father John has already spoken to you about this.

Maybe if you loved Him more, He would be more keen to save you. You haven’t gone to confession in so long, do you even deserve to be blessed with that communion?

God doesn’t like people who whine.

Step 5: Give up

How many times can you apologize before the words lose their meaning? How many times do I have to kneel before you, bloodied hands and bruised knees, before you show up?

It’s 11:13 a.m. on a Sunday and my right hand is gripping a crucifix in the back row of my home church’s pew. My head is bowed, my heart is heavy with everything that’s ever happened to me, splinters from dead wood are digging into my palm, and I’m begging for you to help me.

You do not answer.

The wooden cross tumbles onto the blue-carpeted floor and lands facing away from me.

I feel guilty.

I do not apologize.

Went to the museum today, just wanted to show off this little guy from a special exhibit on cats.
