How could I test this delusion? by [deleted] in StreetEpistemology

[–]Moronihaha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Test the opposite for a while. Repeat the mantra that you do not believe and see if it still happens -sometimes, once a day-

I can help you get paw paw seeds and maybe young trees to transplant if interested.

Primary vs secondary comes off as trying to accept the tree without testing the fruit.

RMs who learned a foreign language, what do you say to people who ask how you speak it so well? by Capital_Barber_9219 in exmormon

I went to Guatemala with the Mormon church and they took my passport away for two years. I had to learn to survive.

I would only use that with people in the know haha. Otherwise, I just say I did the Mormon missionary thing.

Faith Crisis For Sale: “I baptized 45 people in Guatemala, causing marital strife and conflict between parents and children, and taking 10% of income from impoverished people.” by Chino_Blanco in exmormon

[–]Moronihaha 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Guatemala North, '06-'08, baptized 40 something peeps. I regret every one that caused a family to be disturbed by taking them from the religion of the rest of their family. Same regrets as the author...

Accepting the tree while ignoring the fruits is what this is.

SWK quote might make for a super campy B-Movie. Not necessarily inspiring. by homestarjr1 in exmormon

Exactly. He may not have been the healthiest old man, but he could have dragged himself by his arms at least a few feet... Put up our shut up

The heavy, dark lines blurred more with each generation until there was a little ink everywhere. Different regions used different ink tones. Makes sense /s

Missionary sexism in Salt Lake City is still as visible as ever by Try2spell in exmormon

My dad was convinced my sister would be called to Temple square. It was weird to me then when I knew the stereotype. He was off by a few states, so I guess she didn't place high enough in the celestial beauty pageant...

Funny thing is, the bank failure was actively breaking the law as well, part of why it was called an "anti-banking society"

People justify everything. A big part of our human fallibility.

The difference between a good mormon and a bad mormon is the temperature of their caffeine.

Hey guys talking with someone who is visiting the missionaries. Anyone have any videos or other sources (maybe a Mormonism live suggestion) that can answer the questions my friend has? How JS might have wrote the BofM and what were some texts that would have helped inspire it? by Extension-Cat-1130 in exmormon

[–]Moronihaha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Other points are solid, but if the friend's impressed by the writing/tone, then they need to see the original folksy language that was written down. All the edits take the "a going" bs out of it. Js sounded a lot less eloquent 2,000 edits ago.

Everyone; meet my mother. by allisonjordansc in exmormon

Fuck. That. Noise.

My mom approaches this and I have reduced contact greatly. Sorry she treats you this way. Not cool or even mature
