We need to talk about how families/parents/communities forcing religion upon people and how making them feel obligated to follow a religion through either:
- Tradition
- Emotional/mental abuse
- Fear tactics
- Manipulation
- The threat of physical violence
- Threat being shunned
- Fear of disownment/homelessness
- Pressure from bribery or blackmail
- Pressure through guilt
is really damaging and traumatic to peoples mental health.
And we need to talk about it now.
