It was awful. Listening to all the young kids give their "testimony" on their indoctrination almost made me throw up. I grew up in this church, I got confirmed myself in this church, but I haven't attended in years.
The pastor was one I grew up with and apparently he has taken speech advice from Trump over the last few years. He talked and moved in the same manner, totally different than before.
Confirmation is the ultimate guilt trip engineered to take place at the exact moment teens start questioning things and thinking about life. It's designed to make you feel like questioning anything about god is failing the entire congregation, the pastors, your mentors, your peers.
Everyone acts like its "Their choice that they decided to give them selves to god and this is making it official". It's not, no child in that environment could say no. I'm not eating tonight because my stomach is churning so bad. Not sure why I even posted this, just needed to vent to someone I guess.
