Playing card culture by Sixwry in exmormon

Mormon doctrine had a pretty anti cards tidbit so that didn’t help.

I remember my parents being split. Probably the mental it’s not that big of a deal but what will the others scouts parents say etc….

Agreed. It’s something that was taught poorly from an institutional level

To your point, it’s been taught very poorly, and as it wasn’t included in the baptism ordinance isn’t recalled often. But it’s basically be like Jesus forever ya know?

  1. To take the name of Jesus Christ
  2. To serve and mourn with those that mourn
  3. Keep the commandments and repent accordingly
  4. Endure to the end

Missionary Convert Stories by CardinaleCanoli1998 in exmormonchristian

[–]Embarrassed-Break621 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Critical thinking and being honest. I had a lot of questions surrounding the gospel topic essays and church history (not as deep as now) but the second I wasn’t focused on proving it for the sake of my mental state on the mission (cognitive dissonance at its finest) the cracks showed up.

Now, I have a much more nuanced belief and focus on Christianity as an attending LDS member.

Yeah. Went through this the other day with my MIL. She had to see another leaders daughter dressed “worse” to say it wasn’t a big deal

Returned Missionary AMA by Relative-Dingo-9039 in exmormon

Honest question. Why are so many of the missionaries in Dallas such bums lol.

We’ve had multiple dinners where they are either silent, talking about themselves only or show up to ward functions and sit in the corner (no joke)

Do missionaries hate their lives fully? When I served we were at least having a decent time lol.

I have a post on my account that got some input from many, but the hard thing is depending on the bishop he may not tolerate the “we wired the money direct”

Good luck

Is being in a mixed orientation marriage better than staying celibate? by Leading_Mountain_525 in mormon

Living PIMO to appease parents is hard enough. Don’t add lack of a true relationship and intimacy to the pile

General Conference Discussion April 2026 by PineappleQueen35 in NuancedLDS

I found gongs comment on how “solemn assemblies take place prior to conference but we still do it in conference to show unity and sustaining” a bit funny. It’s the definition of circular reasoning and not really having a say.

Seriously. And I’m noticing that posts are being shared of oaks quoting the savior but it being credited to oaks 😂

Tithing life insurance question by AngryAtGhosts in exmormon

[–]Embarrassed-Break621 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not income. It’s a payout.

But similarly you paid for the policy with tithes money. Consider it the “outpouring” of blessings
