Wake Up Dead Man was so amazing, the way Grace the woman haunts the narrative until Grace the concept can be brought back to the church... beautiful.

My mom made my youth pastor cry after yelling at him for treating me and the church kids the way he did. She then made him apologize to me multiple times. Love her for that honestly. But if he were to reach out now, I wouldn’t respond either.

There some things that are unforgiveable. Forgiveness is not required. Also, if forgiveness is possible, it does not require relationship with the person or immediate trust.

the “He loves me when i’m guilty” quote really stuck with me and solidified like a decade+ long battle with religious identity for me like i’ve thought about it every day multiple times a day for the last week

That movie didn’t bring my religious faith back, that door is closed. But it gave me a bit of faith in religious people again.

Not gonna lie if there were more pasters like Jud, I'd possibly convert to Christianity. But there are waaaaaaaay too many Jefferson Wicks in the churches

I am still an active Christian and idk if I could forgive my youth pastor and his wife if he ever reached out to me.

i'm an ex-evangelical. i'm getting better about religion (i'm a quaker now, it's been over a decade since i left the church). "god loves me when i'm guilty" emotionally devastated me. i'm sorry for what they did to you, too.

It was so funny until he called the woman on the phone who needed a prayer, and then I cried. He was doing all that just to be reminded it’s about other people.

I understand Benoit because even in the face of a kind and caring priest, there is no where less I’d rather be than church

If you do it - do it for you and you alone. They can sit with their decisions and accountability. Silence is also effective accountability

For me, it didn’t feel like a part of the franchise at all and it wasn’t what I had wanted to watch…but it so perfectly said something that has needed to be said for a very long time. It’ll hold a place in my heart and I hope others get some peace from Father Jud as well

I just got done watching it with my mom. Both her and I no longer associate with the church. But the message in it was very clear.

The movie was healing for me in a way that I couldn’t explain to people, and knowing others feel this way is truly lovely. I don’t know your story but I really hope you have found healing from people that hide behind God for control and power.

God, I was a youth volunteer and I fought every goddamn day to protect those kids from the men who claimed to care about and lead them. I stayed long after I stopped believing in God just to make sure they’d be okay. I’m so sorry so many of you didn’t have someone there fighting for you

i feel like the people so shook about the knives out concept of religion really didn’t have a good religious background to begin with

I wanted hours more of wake up dead man. it was such a poignant telling of the experience of religion. i told my partner that if anything were ever going to take me back to that religion, it would’ve been that movie— not because it was propaganda in any way, but because it showcased perfectly the love, grace, understanding and compassion that the church should stand for, and i felt that so, so deeply. i hope that writing your response to them gave you some peace, and that you are healing with support, love, and confidence in yourself 💙

It makes so much sense to me that Rian Johnson was raised evangelical. That film made me incredibly emotional ♥️

I saw one of my former youth leaders at my shop as an adult and she’s gay now and really happy and I’m out too and honestly. We healed a little by reconnecting 🙏😳
