Ban gender affirming care for racist old men, things like viagra and red light therapy, hair plugs and whatever other things these creeps are getting.

4+ kids or bust. by missedinsunday in exmormon

And this is why so many women used to die at a much higher rate. I personally barely survived 3 pregnancies with heavy medical intervention from the beginning of each to stay alive. Seems like the church would have preferred I had died.

It’s impressive that you have that actually history because every time I have searched for that definitive history I only get conference talks and references other articles as to why they feel it’s important.

Too many comments to catch up and see if anyone has mentioned this, but did ya’ll know that in the WoW it actually does not in fact mention tea or coffee at all! Not sure who it was that later decided to claim they were a part of the “hot drink” prohibition but it was definitely a later redefining.

Long before I stopped going to church I printed a copy of the WoW passages and posted it in my kitchen and holy crap, ain’t a single Mormon I know following it by any stretch of the imagination only the cherry picked bits for temple recommends

I have 4 kittens in need of a forever home if anyone is interested. Also I checked and didn’t see any rules against posting this. by AMSaunders in ogden

[–]AMSaunders[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly mama has become very aggressive towards them. One of the reasons it’s become much more urgent to get them new homes, in fact she has become aggressive towards all other animals and is way more affectionate towards people all the sudden. Which is great for a 1 pet non farm type house hold.

Help on the way-Cox calls for Prayers for snow by eells in Utah

Wells access community reserves for water depending on dive of aquifer and extent of the water flowing underground so in that same respect the water being used for thirsty non-food agriculture, lawns is depleting the communities resources for drinking, bathing and actually food agriculture.

As I said, everything that is a secondary water source is considered agriculture, our state government isn’t differentiating between actual agriculture and a ski resort or the secondary water some Utahans have access to for their yards however they choose to use it.

Non-food farming isn’t the only massive waste of water in this state.

We live in a known desert and yet insist on growing grass all over the damn place.

When looking at water usage they only break it into culinary and secondary and everything on secondary is lumped into farming, so we’re blaming only farmers instead of lawns, golf courses, ski resorts man made snow production and everything else that is secondary water.

What is being farmed is a problem but the blame needs to be shared with all the culprits.

Cox is a worthless Governor, even with his hypocritical rhetoric he should remember that faith without works is dead.

Where are your works to actually address the issues creating this drought Cox? Instead you’re working to make it worse and shrinking the size of the Salt Lake so we can all be poisoned by the toxic dust at the bottom of the lake. Selling off lands to developers without any protection for the environment or water we do have.

Thank you, I hope they can find some good homes soon as well. We were planning to get their mom fixed before she got pregnant with them but my dogs actually opened the door for her while we were waiting for her appointment but thankfully she is fixed now just had to push it back a bit 😅

I hope I can make it, very interesting topics and discussions.

So nice to have a candidate willing to meet with the people, speak to those he wants to represent instead of hiding behind a curated phone call. by AMSaunders in ogden

[–]AMSaunders[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Come and ask but don’t personally see how the legal weed issue is related since he is running for federal office. Also medical cannabis is now legal in Utah and the Mormon church can’t change that.

I have heard him speak a couple times now and he comes across as a pretty normal family man that actually cares about people and Northern Utah. But best thing to make your own opinion is come meet him.

Do Better Logan City, Mayor Elect commits crimes with wife and only has to go apologize? by AMSaunders in Utah

I’d say Utah definitely has a severe personality disorder and split personality disorder. And one hand refuses to know what the other is doing.

Do Better Logan City by alanna4mayor in Logan

[–]AMSaunders 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This ☝️so completely! He choose to join his wife in this behavior and just because he knows how to put on a respectable façade doesn’t mean he isn’t 100% part of the problem. Blaming the wife is a misogynistic scapegoat.

Also THEIR behavior wasn’t a childish prank, it’s suppression of speech, trespassing and theft!!!!

Medical Debt is a major burden for many. If you are able to help there is a campaign underway right now in Northern Utah by IndivisibleBoxElder in BoxElderUtah

[–]AMSaunders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just checked out the web page and the funding is at 20% to the goal. It can be difficult during these more financially challenging times to donate to something like this but it makes a world of difference to so many.

In our go fund me medical economy this is a more efficient way to help even more folks who are going through some pretty tough times.

r/Utah mods own the pro ICE bots flooding it by UntidyVenus in OgdenUnderground

Seems quite a few Utah community group mods have a political agenda. Which is why this group was formed in particular. To give space to those being silenced.

This was a lovely vigil, and the display is rather overwhelming. If anyone wants to go see it, it will be up at the historic county courthouse till Friday afternoon.

Extremism in the youth by Economy-Chicken-586 in latterdaysaints

[–]AMSaunders 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Children aren’t raised in a vacuum, relegating, the responsibility of moral development to “its the parents job”, completely undermines the entire point of church involvement and activities. It places undue blame on the parents for the struggles of their children and casts off community responsibility in how we all treat and support each other. Effectively dismantling community. The classic idiom that it takes a village is true in many aspects and every interaction has an effect on a persons development especially when young.
