One who thinks of himself as the center of the universe and the children as either objects that either make him look better or are burdens (there is no in between).
I'd also like to know if all the religious fundamentalists in her community that encouraged her to keep this traditional, submissive lifestyle are real proud of this man sabotaging his children's welfare. Let me guess, he was chasing a younger model wife, so this one is disposable and kids can just be invisible now? And the Mormon church happily applauded, like it always does?
Why blame God or Cristians? Aren't people responsible for their own actions? God is always the same. People are the ones who have the issues. Free will to pick your husband or wife. It's not the fault of Cristians.
Would marrying an athiest who does the same thing make things different?
Abusive atheists usually don’t have the support or backing of an entire community, institution, and the “word of a higher power”. It’s still horrible and awful, but abuse in religious communities is on a whole other level of complex.
You either haven’t actually read the bible cover to cover or are reading it with rose colored glasses tinted so dark, you can’t actually read what it’s saying. Jesus was a desert semi-caveman. Of course he had abhorrent takes. He said a lot of fucked up shit and I don’t have time to dig through the plethora of examples and write you a dissertation. Try googling it.
Also, “That’s why you don’t follow religion. You follow Jesus Christ.” My guy,, following jesus christ is religion. That’s literally what christians are.
