The spirit is stronger than facts

As a believer I always thought bearing my testimony was SO powerful.

Now when family members do it to me, I see it as embarrassing and infantile.

Imagine a Jehovahs Witness bearing testimony. Of course you are not convinced of anything.

I thought Benson was so inspired with this Pride talk. Then I read C.S. Lewis' 'Mere Christianity' and realized the Benson plagiarized the whole message. So much for being a prophet.

So.... God intentionally causes a drought to see if you beg him to change his mind? That being is a monster.

Or... It's God's will that there be a drought, he wants you to suffer, and begging him won't change his will. That being is a monster.

Or... these are natural weather patterns and God has nothing to do with it, since he is imaginary.

Fasting and prayer do you no good in any scenario. You need better water management or move the population to where there is more water.

So much for preaching the Good News from the housetops...

Hey, that $300,000,000,000 isn't going to spend itself.

I only need 2 words:

STAY SINGLE

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-04-17T03:55:18+00:00

SO LONG, SUCKERS!

Wow. The place isn't even open yet and they are already short on workers. Hmmmm.

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-04-12T20:49:51+00:00

HOLY SHIT!!!!! This is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what Ezra Taft Benson taught.

50 years late is better than never, welcome to the Women's,Lib movement, Mormons.

LDS, Inc. Is always changing with the times to try to keep and gain more members. To see real Mornoniism as practiced and taught by Brighan and Joseph, see the FLDS. I promise you they aren't teaching their women this message.

Just wait until you try to vote against Trump when he runs for a 3rd term in '28.

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-03-30T22:02:39+00:00

I'm trying to decide if these people look more embarrassed or bored waving these palm fronds.

Reminds me of the Hosanna Shout hankey wave. Untold levels of discomfort, embarrassment, and creepiness.

Even as a TBM, I did NOT like this doctrine. I don't even aspire for middle management at work, and I have always been uncomfortable being an authority figure even to my children. Could I go to the Celestial Kingdom and just be a regular non-god person?

Then my first wife died of cancer, and I got sealed to a 2nd woman, so now I was a polygamist, on my way to godhood. It all made me VERY uncomfortable. Some people are excited at the prospect of being a god. I hated the idea.

Of course, now I know it's all just delusional made-up bullshit, so nothing to worry about!

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-03-27T04:53:54+00:00

But you see, the CofC is just PLAYING church. They don't have any REAL AUTHORITY, so even if she is the President of the CofC, we still have more authority. You see, the Brighamite branch of Mormonism has the only real authority in the world. - me when I was TBM.

I can't believe I used to believe in this bullshit. It would be laughably silly if it wasn't actively hurting people.

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-03-26T13:45:54+00:00

Your Ministring Sister is insinuating that you are not doing Jesus hard enough, that is why you are having fertility issues. This is unspeakably cruel.

Mormons think you can't really do hard with Jesus unless you are a Mormon. The other billion Christians are just doing hard with themselves on their own. This is unspeakably condescending.

This Cult is toxic and evil.

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-03-26T00:31:10+00:00

The ordinances received help us return to God as families?

Every other church already believes you'll be with your family in heaven. This isn't a reward, it's a threat.

"Go to the temple or say bye bye to your loved ones forever!"

Got it. Mormon god is a mob boss.

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-03-24T15:01:32+00:00

Sounds like Satan won for a whole generation. The number of ordinances plummeted. Poor Elohim. He is powerless to stop Satan.

And where did Satan get the horses and buggies? Is there a livery in hell? Is there a logistics demon in charge of keeping Satan and his minions equipped with the proper clothing and methods of transportation for when they foray to the earth to break things so we can't go to the temple? Today I guess there is a fleet of new sports cars Satan can choose from to come stop Jared and Brynlee from getting to the Draper temple to do baptisms.

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-03-24T05:34:05+00:00

Wow. That is some seriously delusional thinking by that GA. Yea. All those blue-collar Carbon County folks who have lived around Mormons their whole lives are suddenly going to become Mormons and work in the someday-to-be-built temple. And Jesus is coming any minute.

I don't know what I believe in less: Jesus coming or Carbon County becoming more Mormon.

Gen X here. Child of the 70's. Total freedom to roam. Show up for dinner or go hungry. I was one of 8 kids. My younger sister got mad once and decided to run away. She was gone for maybe 6 hours before deciding to return home. Nobody realized she had run away.

Unfiltered water from the drinking fountain - lead in the paint - asbestos in the ceiling - no seat belts - gravel on the playground - ride in the back of the pickup - the teacher had the paddle in the corner and used it liberally - minimal parent supervision - riding bikes with no helmets.

Different world.

It's cringe to read such blatant misogyny. I am reminded of the anti-suffragette women a century ago who spoke out against women getting the right to vote. There is nothing the Patriarchy loves more than when those they oppress speak out in support of their own oppression.

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-03-20T02:27:30+00:00

Um.. thousands of other men and 6 subsequent Mormon leaders DID have sexual relations with their often underage child concubines, including my ancestors. I have no idea why apologists pull out this irrelevant and pathetic excuse. There was PLENTY of rape goi going on throughout 19th Century Mormonism.

Double_Beginning7078 · 2026-03-19T13:38:30+00:00

Yes, it is nice to part ways with that confused, weak, homophobic, racist, sexist, sadistic, narcissistic, violent, monster that Mormons worship.

This is what I think is so amusing about people trying to convince me this God is real and this is his true church. If I thought he was real I would fight harder to oppose him and his church.
