b"Did you know some people used to use the Bible to support slavery? They would tell slaves that it was God\\u2019s will.\\n\\nWant to guess who those people were? \\n\\nHuge surprise: slave owners.\\n\\nIt can be terrifying to have someone throw the book\\u2014the literal Bible\\u2014at you. But you know the saying \\u201cWhere there\\u2019s smoke, there\\u2019s fire?\\u201d Well, in this case, \\u201cWhere there\\u2019s confusion, there\\u2019s crap.\\u201d The kind of crap people throw out when they\\u2019re desperate to keep you under their thumb. \\n\\nInstead of cowering in the face of their accusations and \\u201cbiblical\\u201d nonsense, you can do a little math. \\n\\nThis episode does some figuring:\\n\\n- The crappy calculation abusers use (they have an investment in saying dumb things)\\n- The inverse result of reading 1 Corinthians 6:1-10 for what it really means\\n- The addition by subtraction you experience when you wake up to abuse (the more you learn, the more you lose\\u2026at first)\\n- The typical transactions of abusive relationships: You make constant deposits; they\\u2019re making constant withdrawals \\n- The order of operation: You confront, they deny. Then they turn you into a goat (don\\u2019t worry, I\\u2019ll explain)\\n- The tangent I go off on: My own story follows the same line graph\\u2026and it\\u2019s why I can understand what you\\u2019re going through. \\n\\nListen or download the transcript at flyingfreenow.com/178\\n\\nFREE: I'll send you the first chapter of my book, Is It Me?
