Bro, has the Pope even met people?
Does the Pope not realize that what goodnees he sees was hard-fought-for by his own church, and only possible by the grace of Our Lord as mediated by the Holy Spirit?
Does he not know that this is the good news that the gospels are named after?

For a lot of adults, who grow up in high control groups, it's genuinly never for most, they have to have a special independent minded personality to be able to have agency, and they have to fight for it, and it will be much harder, than just going with the flow and conforming to whatever situation they ended up in.

Correct. That's why I love you, because worshipping this imaginary being was instilled in you since childhood, and now a world without the imaginary being sounds scary, and you'd rather stay with the stable known.

I love you
too, for you're made equally endowed in all ways in the image and dignity of God. I was a soft atheist/ardent agnostic in my teens and 20s, if that makes a difference in how you view me. My conversion/reversion only came much later in life after earnestly considering the origins of the universe and the basis of metaphysical ideals I held such as human rights.
