Rick's thread about the New Moon in Capricorn. The "draining and depressing confrontation" and the following post about the nightmare I had the next morning.

I live where people are happy to tell me I'm going to hell, or tell me what makes God angry, or are generally paranoid, angry and love their guns. They love to get mad and argue with me about irrational stuff like their faith. I do not want to provoke them. They cannot understand why I don't want to go to their church, because that's what they do to be friendly--invite you to their (fundamentalist evangelical, anti-intellectual) church. They are ignorant and proud of it. Won't learn anything. Refuse to listen. Obsessed with Jesus. It's not worth the effort. I withdraw.

I feel extremely isolated and threatened, and the only person I can talk to is hubby. We moved here because I inherited the family home that has been here since 1882.

We have both had nightmares about intruders into our house. We put up a fence with an electric gate to keep people from bothering us.
