It hurts me that you've suffered at the hands of Christians.
As fallen creatures, we do our best to represent Christ in this world...
but all too often people acting in the name of Christ do more harm than help...
It's wonderful that you're trying to come back to God.
There is much rejoicing in heaven when someone comes back to God.
[like the parable of the prodigal son]
We're always here if you need anything.
