Anybody else finding it hard to want to stay on Lemmy?

I apologize if this is not appropriate for this community. But, I find the main reason I feel this way is because of my Christian faith. I've gone on Reddit twice this month to check for specific discussions or questions I had. I only ever used Reddit on a third party app, so I was upset but what was happening.

But surprisingly, I feel even more alienated and hated on here than I did on Reddit. Pro Life communities seem to be banned. I think there were one or two at some point, but I can't find any now. This community has very low engagement and content, which I understand.

I'm kinda in the middle politically, trying to let my faith guide my politics, but there doesn't seem to be a place for that here. The people here seem to be further left than Reddit and more intolerant of Christianity.

I think it makes sense. Of course the most "activist-minded" people would leave Reddit. Perhaps the most outspoken people. I left Reddit because dislike browsing it outside of RIF.

I feel myself more and more drawn to Reddit lately. There's obviously still a vast majority of people on there that my beliefs are still hated. But, there are enough people to carve out little communities of like-minded people.

Anyway, sorry for the long post. Apologies if it doesn't fit.

    Yes I agree. I don't want to posts about the Bible on Lemmy, because most people hate it on that platform. I have made my decision so there is really no need for me to debate with anyone and that decision is that I as an adult have chosen to believe in God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

    If you want to join other Christians in a closed community, there is the theres.life Mastodon instance, which you can join.

    God bless 🙏
