We are all born hated by god and we have to earn his love.
Honestly don't know if that's worse than the protestant message that "god is omnipotent, all knowing, created good and evil, created you in his image, loves you and wants you to go to heaven, buuuuuut sorry, he can't unless you "freely" choose to accept him into your heart. Yep, the heart he made, the mind he gave you, yeah, those are going to send you to hell. Nothing he can do about it, it's on you. Totally not a weird, abusive, logically inconsistent relationship we have with him."
Then stack on top of that "the woman should serve the man in the same way the church serves the Lord". Just problematic all the way down.
If it was as simple as, "the man hates the woman just as god hates us" then the next step is easy. Fuck that guy, I'm out.
I, too, was raised catholic.
Gotta indoctrinate that guilt of being born human beings early and often, took me almost 10 years to deconstruct and let go of those fears
