“I will argue … that hell is the most erroneous, outdated, misunderstood, and misguided dogma in all of Christianity, and the one that must be discarded if this spiritual tradition is to survive as anything more than a contemptable curiosity.” ― Carlton D. Pearson

Craft Over Catharsis Challenge Winners
Craft Over Catharsis? What the hell does that even mean? The phrase came out of a curation meeting as a genuine question. We had been noticing that many challenge entries, across prompts, naturally gravitate toward trauma, grief, and personal reckoning. That makes sense. Writing is often cathartic. It's one of the ways we process what we've lived through.

Really nice poem on forgiveness, redemption and not giving up
Never giving up hope! 🙏 ☮️
This radiates hope, forgiveness, and a deep belief in human kindness
Hello, sir. I'm Bill. You found me first, commenting on a story of mine. I've now subscribed to you. This is the first story of yours I've read and it's a great introduction! I'm really impressed by your amazing profile/bio. As to this poem-- I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiment. I'm 64 (about to be 65 in a week). I grew up in a conventional Christian family. Then, in my 20s-30s, I became very disillusioned with conventional religion and identified as an atheist. Eventually, finding the work of Edgar Cayce, Jung, and others, my beliefs changed basically to who I am today. I am a spiritual person. I find evidence of the Divine in synchronicity. I understand the wisdom of certain Buddhist ideas: like how attachment causes misery; and the only certainty in life is impermanence. I believe in reincarnation. I believe we evolve spiritually over the course of many lifetimes. I'm fascinated by people's accounts of Near Death Experiences. I have materialist friends who think I'm insane but I actually find evidence that astrology has merit. And I don't believe in Hell. I can't fathom a God who would sentence someone He loves to eternal torment solely because that person doesn't kowtow to Him and tell Him that He's the greatest. I believe Christ represents the Ideal, what we can all eventually be, through spiritual evolution. He embodies Universal Unconditional Love. I believe in Connected Consciousness. I'm weird.⚡😁👍
Your homage to Bishop Pearson and the message of hope resonates deeply.
I felt this in its entirety. I read while listening to the music and felt it in my soul. I hope more people take the time to give this the attention it so dearly deserves. Many blessings to you. I am now a follower.🙏🫂
