A screenshot of a Tumblr post from a user named demilypyro. The text of the post reads: “y’know some years ago I saw a conservative post something like ‘transitioning is worshipping yourself when you should be worshipping god’ and I was like hell yeah. hell yeah that’s awesome. I’m turning myself into someone worthy of worship and spiting god at the same time. this rules”.

    I also find the argument itself interesting because I’d honestly call it easier to compare my transition to joining a religious order than self worship. After a long time seriously considering what was wrong in my life I humbled myself to accept that I needed to live an uncommon and difficult path that would completely change my life from what had always been expected of me.

    It pushed me away from religion, but it also called me back to the divine.
