The word of your lord has been pushed in my face for far too long. Your top-down authority must be brought down, your incorruptible kingdom must be brought down to earth. To a level of acceptance, to a plane of relation. There can never be peace with the ideas that you preach. A vengeful god indoctrinates a violent mind. Hypocritical, patriarchal, and inapplicable to my life. There is no spiritual quest, no communion with souls. Can't you see? Have you been blinded by the light? Can't you see? You are dying with Christ. No longer. I'll be confident in what I choose to believe. Not in what I'm taught to believe. Not in what I'm told to believe. Not in what I'm forced to believe. Your mind has been sealed with the cross of Christ forever.
