I'm a pastor's kid

Nobody should hold a pastor or priest in that sort of position

they are just peoe

thats their job though?

nope

thats why people call them "father"

they are a "parental figure"

that's tradition

they aren't

and shouldn't be seen that way

okay

so what are they there for

to read the bible? you can do that yourself

exactly

and any good pastor or priest will tell you to fucking read it for yourself

so you're telling me that your dad, the pastor, is only there to read the bible, and thats it?

why do you pay him

he was a church planter

(not you specifically)

(missionary)

That's what they do, they get you to read the bible

a pastor is an orator, like a teacher/professor.

okay, you could do that just as well with a community

and what do they orate?

lessons

of?

whatever it is they decide to discuss

Echo chambers.

lessons such as morals and values they wish to instill on you?

not really

do a degree sure

but they should not be taken at face value

because in the end, they are human

the pastor should not be taken at face value because he's human?
