“Are you mad at God?” (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast) (It's in the Code, episode #138)

“Are you mad at God?” 

This is a question that will almost certainly be posed to anyone undergoing faith deconstruction. 

It might come from someone who means well and who cares about the person deconstructing. Or it might come from a partisan advocate of high-control religion. 

What is happening when someone poses this question? Even if it comes from a place of care, how does it express the dynamics of high-control religion? 

And why, if it’s a question, does it so often feel like an attack, like a dismissal? 

Check out this week’s episode to hear Dan’s reflections on these and other issues related to this question.
