Recently I asked my counselor how to deal with the fear of hell that was leftover from my fundamentalist christian childhood that I had otherwise decoupled from. The specific conditioned fear that one wrong choice would make me ‘bad’ forever.
After a lot of conversation this is what stuck with me:
“In the rest of life everything is nuanced, nothing stays within a binary, so why would it make sense that an afterlife would be less nuanced?”
It *doesn't* make sense and I don't have to be afraid of it anymore.
