#because it’s about felloshiping with people

[saltyfilmmajor]

I wonder how many of them knew before I did

#religious trauma #I’ve always been an outcast in the religion and I think that’s the thing my mom can’t understand why I don’t let go of #because it’s about felloshiping with people #at the core of Christianity it’s about being around others who believe the same #and I both miss the community I was in and resent it for never having been fully accepted #there’s a lot of layers about how I feel about the church and only a handful of people understand the nuances of it

Me: *emails professor at 2200 on a Saturday night* hey they guy who was going to present on Felloship of the Ring dropped is there anyway I can do it instead?

Professor: *replies an hour late* absolutely go ahead make sure you have 3-4 scenes to discuss

Me: *has 3 pages of notes with background on Tolkien, Peter Jackson, Howard Shore, LotR in general, discussion questions, 4 scenes to make sure I talk about (with more discus questions) and 2 extra scenes I want to talk about if I have time (and that’s only because I think making the class watch the last 12 or so minutes of the movie would be frowned upon)* oh I’m such a nerd I feel bad for these people that are going to get my current hyper focus word vomited at them
