    I think it’s good that you made some people come to solid conclusions regarding their views on the matter, but I’m sure it didn’t win you many friends.

      I don’t know why the person you’re replying to causes me so much revulsion. Probably resonates with some people I’m not in touch. Anyways, live moves on and I decided to block that person.

        Yeah tbh I was trying to find the bright side of the story but I don’t think it came off that way.

      I had a former summer camp kid come up and credit me with having given them their “first existential crisis” (for explaining that when you die, “you just cease”) which I am proud of.

          They were actually pretty grateful, feeling it had set them up for a lot of positive realizations down the line. We play D&D now and they’re working on their masters, so I guess they weren’t too badly scarred…

              Not very satisfying answers I’m afraid, they were probably 8-10 and I have no idea how we got onto the topic since this was 15+ years ago.

                  I get the impression you don’t think this was a good thing to have done, hence the interrogation?

                    I wouldn’t intentionally give a childhood a existential crisis, no, but I’m sure I could inadvertently. Didn’t mean it to feel like an interrogation, sorry. Was just curious.
