Narrator: And now it's time for Silly Songs with Larry, the part of the show where Larry comes out and sings a silly song.
To get hyped for the show this week, we watched everyone's favorite Christian vegetables (Veggie Tales). It turns out Silly Songs With Larry was the only good thing we can recall from our religious upbringings, but let’s get into it anyway.
We delve into our personal experiences with religious trauma and how it affected everything from our relationships to our sexual and mental health. We talk about therapy, deconstructing beliefs, and the ongoing healing process. Jamie shares stories from her many years in private Christian school (including what happened when she wrote a kind of rebellious paper for Theology class). Rebecca recalls the insane moment from Jesus camp where they were told religion was outlawed as a “test of faith” in the middle of the night (wtf?). We also discuss how many religions and religious teachings are all too similar to abusive relationships and we wonder what Jesus would really do about all of this insanity if he were living in the world today.
So put on your best Sunday clothes—but don’t forget the modesty cardigan! It’ll be fun(damental). We promise?
