@drtoddphillips: I made a video last week about how negative comments can affect me, even when most of the comments on my videos are thoughtful, kind, and supportive. This is one of the strange parts of creating Christian deconstruction content online. Some videos get thousands of comments from people processing faith, doubt, grief, religious trauma, family, church, fear, and leaving Christianity, and that dialogue really matters to me. But I was honest that a few negative comments can sometimes feel louder than all the positive ones. More than 300 of you responded with encouragement, kindness, and support. I saved those comments because I know I will need to go back and read them when the online criticism gets loud again. So this is just a thank you. Thank you to the exvangelical community, the deconstruction community, and everyone who has taken time to remind me that this space matters. Thanks for seeing the human being on the other side of the screen. #Exvangelical #Agnostic #Deconstruction #faithjourney #LeavingChristianity

We can choose who or what we believe in. I have always questioned religion. Keep your post coming- you make so much sense.

I’ve been on a journey most of my adult life trying to make sense of it all. I am right now thinking I have no idea about anything. I know that trying to be kind is a good thing. When we do good, we feel good and sometimes we feel bad because it doesn’t seem fair…this thing we call life. I’m sure there is a God, but one we are not meant to understand. I like to hear from people who question. We don’t have to agree, but know we can all have our own beliefs without judgement. I wish all people allowed people to have their own beliefs as long as no one gets hurt.

You matter, your content is fantastic. We are naturally critical of ourselves so it's easy to resonate with negative comments. Stay grounded and know your worth. Don't let yourself or anyone else take that away from you.

It’s a shame that some of the worst comments have a tendency to get amplified. It seems to be the nature of social media. I can at least say that for myself, I find your kindness when talking about deconstruction (even toward Christians) to be uplifting. So yes, what you are doing matters.

You a great job because of where you came from. Without the walk through what the church would calls Christianity you would never be where you are with the truth. The journey is not over. As long as the negative comments can get to you then you have room to grow. You will learn way more from the negative than the positive.
