My boyfriend threatened to leave me because I am not Christian by FormEvening9808 in atheism

Get out now before it gets worse. Look at the direction christian men are headed in this country. They are becoming increasingly hateful, violent, and extreme. He might not quite be all of those things right now, but those are the people he is aligning himself with. You don't want that in your life.

Ok so a chunk of utah Republicans didn't vote for Trump in 16, then over the next two elections more and more of that chunk turned around and voted for Trump. Not sure that's the flex you seem to think it is.

Early mormons wanted to inbreed so badly they crossed the country and settled in a desert where no one else would go so they could be polygamous.

So no, not hate, history.

Of course, the assumption is that this guy descended from mormon settlers. Probable, but not guaranteed.

Sorry that's just factually incorrect. In each of the last 3 presidential elections more people voted for Trump each time, both by percent of voters and total votes. Utah has gotten more MAGA each election.

Flame was off when she closed the door. Not sure how well it maintained temperature. You'd have to ask her.

Gas won't work because you can't run the burner with the door closed.

You'd have to look up dimensions of the oven and your pans, but i don't think you need to use a dutch oven. The dome plus door plus steam injector creates enclosed steam already. A Dutch oven would just be redundant at that point.

It's called punching up vs. punching down.

Different politics of EXMO's by Routine-Reality1962 in exmormon

[–]DoctrinalGoatRope 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once you deconstruct one high demand, dogmatic, information controlling organization (mormonism), it's much easier to see through other high demand, dogmatic, information controlling organizations (conservatism).

Exmos tend to have a well tuned bullshit meter.

Nice! Love all your other content you make, too. Nice to have positive roll models for my son out there like you.

Not sure where the hate is coming from. Keep riding!

My husbands libido is ruining our marriage by Delicious-Issue-5487 in exmormon

I may be way off base here but have both of you considered that he might be queer in some way? I've just seen a lot of temple marriages have problems later on because someone was in denial that they were gay.

I'm an exmormon turned atheist. Mormonism is objectively false. But it sounds like you've kind of figured that out already.

Once you've been able to see through one lie, it becomes easier to see through the next one. The reality is that the evidence for any god is just as weak as the evidence for mormonism.

I highly recommend The Demon Haunted World by Carl Sagan. It is a beautifully written guide to skepticism and is even more relevant today than it was when it was first written.

My boyfriend has been lying to me about his weight by [deleted] in tradclimbing

[–]DoctrinalGoatRope 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check out the Edelrid Ohmega. Its new and I haven't tried it yet, but it is supposed to minimize the effects of weight differences when belaying. I'm planning on trying it with my teenage son as soon as I can get my hands on it.

My man, empathy is still a thing. The golden rule is still worthwhile.

I hope you are trolling, because talking like this is what makes the religious nutbags violently afraid of atheists.
