What do Christianity and Stockholm syndrome have in common?

Asked by AnonymousWoman (6531points) March 1st, 2012

Before I get attacked for this, I’d like you to know that I used to consider myself a Christian and the whole “relationship with Jesus or suffer in Hell” thing reminds me of Stockholm syndrome. If you see no similarities, feel free to add your own two cents as well.

I looked up some things on Google that talk about this that might help you understand where I’m coming from.

Here they are:

First post on ‘Christianity ~ the Stockholm Syndrome Writ Large’

‘Is the Christian ‘Relationship with God’ Healthy?’

Question on Quora ~ ‘Is Christianity a form of mass Stockholm Syndrome?’
