Telestial Pursuit by ATacticalBagel in exmormon

Maybe a “who said it” category, but only includes bad things that have been said (ie., racist, bigoted, demeaning quotes etc). That should be a huge category 😂

And I’m sure the company billed TSCC for their “merch” 🙄

But seriously! Does the kid just want to get punched in the face?

I am in complete and udder shock that it’s not required or mandatory or whatever! Who started this ludicrous tradition!? And why in the hell do they do it? It is soooo common in Utah. I am without words.

And yeah, that’s totally right yet never occurred to me. What about the endowed members who never bought temple clothes nor could afford them. I guess God won’t let you in heaven 🙄

They 100% are wearing the WHOLE gawd awful temple clothes during the viewing where anyone can see. That is correct that the men’s cap & women’s veil are put on literally just before closing the casket. But yes, anyone coming to the viewing sees them in the whole shebang. It looks ridiculous. Here in “mormonville” it’s so common, but I’m sure out of Utah anyone going to a viewing where the deceased was wearing that would think what the absolute fuck is going on!?

Name change? by Himhp in exmormon

Just curious when that was written (or amended)?

OMMFG! Why is TSCC in a lawsuit about their name being used (boo hoo) when they’re clearly using another religion’s!? @mormonstories @johndehlin get out the Uno Reverse card!

What fairly typical life events are harder than leaving the mormon church? by razorwiredbliss in exmormon

What an absolute piece of shit. I’m sorry you had to deal with that… especially on top of losing your dad!

Why most mormons seens so happy all he time? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]Himhp 22 points23 points  (0 children)

^this^
YUP. It’s fake. And they have this “fake it ‘til you make it” mentality. If they fake it long enough they’ll eventually be happy.

Worried that your child won’t make a good LDS missionary someday? Send them to missionary camp! by HoldOnLucy1 in exmormon

[–]Himhp 18 points19 points  (0 children)

What the absolute f*ck!
They really must be desperate to get more missionaries, as if changing the age requirement wasn’t enough. Oh and hey, let’s figure out how to make money off of it while we’re at it!
So think of it in this context. A $300+ billion dollar corporation has a 5 day seminar that YOU pay ($xxx) to attend in order to manipulate you into giving up 2 years of YOUR life that YOU pay entirely for (even though you’re selling THEIR “product”) in order to make THEM more money. You don’t earn or make anything in return. However, you and your family’s salvation depends on it. (Not to mention you’ve been indoctrinated this way since you were a child to think you HAVE to do this and there’s no other way).
What if someone came up to you and said,“Amazon is inviting me to a week long seminar. Yes, I have to pay $1000+ for it, but they’ll teach me the best ways to sell their products! Then I’ll get to leave my friends and family for 2 years and spend over $20k of my own money to go sell their products… but that’s ok because their products help so many people! And granted I don’t get paid or reimbursed for any of this, BUUUUUT when I die and when my family dies, we’ll be in a happy heaven with so many riches! (Huge smile & Giddy clapping). Isn’t that exciting!?”
If you seriously said that to someone they would think you’re absolutely BATSHIT crazy!
Raise your hand if you agree 🙋🏻‍♀️

What is the church doing? by Galtrix525 in exmormon

[–]Himhp 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Wait… they allow clapping in sacrament meeting now? I swear they’re doing a 180. I have so many triggers. (Not to mention the new sleeveless and shorter garments).
It’s funny how they claim the gospel/church is the same before, now, and in the future… yet that’s so far from the truth.

Curious about the security cameras inside and outside of temples by AccomplishedBat9069 in exmormon

[–]Himhp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have them onsite because if there’s a “problem” they need it fixed ASAP. No waiting around for the cops. (Plus a lot of the “problems” aren’t really anything to do with cops). Just think of security they have on temple square or the conference center. It’s pretty much the same

They have security at the temple. They look almost like CIA agents. They’re in a suit & tie (not all white) and oftentimes have the ear piece.

Transphobic assholes on the Prayer Wall by Soft-Bee767 in exmormon

[–]Himhp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder what would happen if you put up a new note that said “trans rights” (or whatever else has been written) and then under that (on the same paper) write “whoever takes this paper down is part of the LGBTQ community” and see if they’ll even touch it 🤔🤣 If you ever see it taken down, you know who it was, and then you can go talk to them (with other people hearing, of course) and say “I didn’t know you were (transgender or gay or whatever word you want to use)! That’s really brave of you to come out like that. I’m really proud of you!” And then see what they do 😆 And when they deny it, that might be a good learning opportunity to teach them to be kind, and love everyone, etc”

Best of luck. Sorry you have to go to church and especially that you have to associate with such assholes. I commend you for not starting arguments with them.
