I basically have had the complete opposite attitude as Naomi recently. I am so overwhelmed by the evil/sin/corruption around me I am beginning to rethink the concept I’ve always held that you can redress sin with good works in the world. People are so awful and evil to me that it makes it hard for me to grasp God’s forgiveness. It is sheer insanity for most to be granted that mercy given how inherently and deeply evil they are

I'm sorry that you have to witness so many horrible people around you. Well, not saying that crypto hasn't often pushed me to the edge of believing in human good - but irl around me I know too many really decent people which helps. I don't know how to actually address the evil, the self-centeredness. I do feel like something that gets people closer to some sort of divine would be to recognize that we're all interdependent, and no it's not all of your own making and you aren't entitled to much, but you are probably indebted to many (family, community, nation whatever larger context we wanna pick). At least that thought keeps me being humble and not be an awful person to others.

Tbh this is why I am starting to become a collapse cheerleader. I don’t see any other way to force the recognition we are all in this together. All we have is one another. Something to be said for touching grass too. Internet shows us too much. We see all the things everyone else has we do not, and all the good bad and ugly of everyone’s behavior
