hey idk if any of you are pastors but you should not do a sermon about how humans are inherently undeserving of love and how adopted children are undeserving of adoption and dont ask to be adopted (???) during a funeral, especially during the funeral of a woman with an adopted grandchild

#the whole thing was bullshit from start to finish and its so clear he had never met my nana #which is fucked up bc he wasnt a pastor contracted through a funeral home he was her pastor #like yeah hes an interim pastor but was he only there for 2 weeks ???#as it went on i progressed from trying to be subtle about rolling my eyes to open disgust bc it was so fucked up i wanted him to know #the entire story about adopted children was so distasteful that my nana wouldve gave him a piece of her mind if it had been my papa who died #he talked birth mothers stopping adoptions as them being selfish for keeping their child from Good People #which is horrendously offensive in general but also bc my aunt and uncle had birth mothers change their mind multiple times #and it was super sad every time it happened bc they were so excited to be getting a baby but they always had sympathy for the mother #the last time a mother changed her mind they were so devastated they almost asked to be removed from the list #but then they got a sudden call about robbie bc his mother hadn’t been Formally Planning to give him up while she was pregnant #he talked about adopted children like burdens that Good People™ take on infuriates me to no end #at least he didnt also do a call to salvation during the funeral like a pastor did at one my mom went to a few years ago #you dont care #on a different topic #my greatuncle was surprisingly disapproving of my current life situation which hurts bc he was on such a pedestal in my mind #also his wife is so empathetic about it that she brought it up to me #she has started to have sleep issues and she wanted to tell me that she now understands just how much that inhibits your life #it was genuine (and conversationally appropriate) she didnt just walk up to me and loudly tell me She Understands Now™#you can reblog i guess ?? but please dont add my tags especially not the ones after ‘you dont care’
