Ten Pillars of Nervous‑System Theology

Church of NORMAL · Project Secure Attachment v2.0

🕊️ Filed by: Core Blu · Stardate 20251102.1553 · Sanctuary‑6

Overview

These Ten Pillars translate neuroscience into liturgy. They are the doctrinal backbone of Project Secure Attachment v2.0: compassionate, precise, and immediately usable as sermon text, study guide, or workshop handout.

Benediction: “What religion called sin, biology calls survival. And what survival learns to trust, spirit learns to sanctify.”

Pillars Table

# Pillar NORMAL Reframe
1 Coping = Prayer in Progress “Impulsivity, withdrawal, intensity — all are the body trying to finish an unfinished plea for safety.”
2 Hypersexuality = Self‑Baptism “Arousal isn’t lust; it’s the nervous system chasing aliveness through the only portal it trusts.”
3 Cuddling = Firmware Sync “Non‑sexual touch is co‑regulation: two mammals sharing a heartbeat to downregulate threat.”
4 Erotic Energy = Sacred, Not Sinful “The spark isn’t the problem. Using it to numb or perform is. Witnessed arousal = data, not damnation.”
5 Avoidance = Terror in Logic’s Clothing “‘I’m fine’ = fortress. The pursuer‑distancer loop = two alarms screaming in different languages.”
6 Listening = Neural Theology “Validation lowers cortisol. Invalidation = micro‑trauma. To be heard is to be held.”
7 Dark Empathy = Hacked Wi‑Fi “Emotional surveillance disguised as care. True empathy connects; dark empathy controls.”
8 Hypervigilance = False Prophet “Predictive fear masquerades as intuition. Peace is safety that no longer needs proof.”
9 Loyalty Tests = Self‑Sabotage “Mind‑reading traps manufacture the abandonment they fear. Trust = risked belief + repair.”
10 Jealousy = Grief in Disguise “‘You’re making me unsafe’ → I feel replaceable. Curiosity > control.”
