My dad keeps fully crying because he wants to see me in heaven. And that he will be devastated if he’s waiting for me after he dies and I die and doesn’t see me and knows I’m suffering in hell. He’s never been angry or anything, it’s all like this.

That sucks and he must feel really scared about it. But shouldn’t you be able to go to heaven since God is loving and merciful and forgives everyone for their sins and stuff?

I come from a very similar family. It’s not weird to be conditioned in a certain way, especially if your community sees something that certain way. He’s genuinely expressing emotion at the thought of not being able to see his kid again in his faith’s afterlife, which I think really means something even though it’s what we consider “misguided” as loving yourself and/or someone else unconditionally inherently shouldn’t be “sinful”.

TLDR: Hurts like a bitch to see and hear, and could be phrased WAY, way better, but he still cares. A lot. He’s scared and that’s not OP’s fault, it’s the fault of the people who have begun to use the threat of a hell and/or underworld to make others behave and appear the way they want to.
