I think being Sternberged means going from being a third-rate scientist in a clerical position at NIH with a hobby of indulging, and possibly sharing, Creationists' fantasies, to being wined and dined by Fox news and Coral Ridge Ministries, flown around by the DI, giving lectures to fundies and interviews for hefty fees, and possibly getting a do-nothing job for life at some Christian college. Not a bad deal if you're into that kind of stuff.

A person, usually a douchebag, who doesn’t play Fortnite because he knows he would get absolutely raped by every player in the game. Usually trash talks the game to make up for his incompetence.
Person 1: Why don’t you play Fortnite?
Person 2: I’m a steenberg. If I played I would suck to much. That game is gay anyway!
church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
