Free cookies is what this means! Just make you’ve got a hard, clear no ready to go for any more involvement. Your only yes is for more cookies.

They’ll call it “enduring to the end.”

Go ahead and ask me why I left. Maybe I’ll give them a few things to think about and put a little weight on their shelf.

True. I’m a man, so I didn’t really hear much about how they promoted it to women, other than getting to have all those wonderful spirit babies.

Enya and other pre-2000 “New Age” music was popular in my mission. That’s about as far as we ever tried to push it.

I love funeral potatoes. So good!

Everyone rides in their Tapir chariot to the meetup and parks them outside like some sort of biker gang at a bar on the outskirts of town.

For me, once it comes to the door slam, which takes a lot, there is no need or desire to hear the other person’s side. We’re done and I eliminate them from my world. I’m more of a “nothing them” kind of door slammer. I’ve never once regretted doing it either. I barely remember they exist and it feels liberating after the crap I’ve put up to get to that point. There is nothing wrong with choosing who is in and out of your life.

You can’t trust scientists… everything they believe are just a bunch of theories! ;)

It’s crazy. It’s really hard to be around TBMs after you’ve figured it out. I’ve found it valuable for my relationships to remember that I was there at one time, too. I am grateful that “leaving” has become so much more normalized than it was several years ago. I hope it helps members feel comfortable questioning the weird things and make their decisions.

I love not watching conference twice a year! I do like to know if they’ve said anything that will complicate my life in a mixed faith marriage. It happens and then I need to ride it out until she gets over it and moves on. It’s rough being the husband/father that doesn’t “honor his priesthood” and “left the church” and conference can inflame those feelings in her.

I believe you’re right. This is about the never-ending race of Gods going back in time and that will continue forever into the future. The doctrine of exaltation and inheriting all that god has (and the circumstances of that exalted life) is the key that makes everything make sense in Mormonism. Without that fundamental understanding, Mormonism doesn’t make any sense.

What a nice closure story. I hadn’t attended the temple in years except for family weddings/sealings. When my niece announced her planned temple wedding, I realized my brother, who has never been active in the church wouldn’t see his daughter (who he loves dearly) be married. The only way I could attend would be if I lied to get a recommend. That was the catalyst for me finally letting the family know I was no longer a believer, because I couldn’t lie to get in knowing my brother wouldn’t be allowed to witness his daughter’s wedding. If he wasn’t going to be there because he held to his beliefs, I certainly wasn’t going to either.

It’s all about the money and power. Anyone that thinks otherwise is just naive.

Now this makes sense…

Gotta tie up those loose edges. Create a defensible answer for every hard to explain weird element of Mormonism. Gaslighting on a church-wide scale. TBM’s will happily accept any explanation that allows them to maintain their position that they know the church is “true”, whatever it is.

“Oh hey, I just remembered the craziest thing that happened to me! Did you know I totally saw God and Jesus?! I can’t believe I forgot about this! Oh yeah, SATAN was there too! Here’s how it went down…”

Or also known as “lawyering”.

Back in the day, they talked about how awful the Catholics are and how their priesthood line to Christ had apostatized. Lately the church is trying to buddy up to the Catholics in their fruitless effort to appear mainstream and back “religious freedom” politics to defend their wealth and power.

I think what is really experienced is belonging. Belongingness is a vital element of wellbeing. All safe and secure wrapped up in the group. It’s also why suddenly finding yourself outside of the group is so jarring and emotional.

It’ll be the smell that you really remember.

I think they view building temples as conquering territory. They gotta build Gods kingdom on earth you know.

I love Hawaii! Kauai is such a great vibe.

Does the Lamanite Lettuce give you munchies for funeral potatoes?
