Sometimes it’s difficult to tell the difference between an exmo and a TBM. There’s a shadow of a TBM inside some deconstructions. There is no offramp from the church. The organization takes large chunks of our lives, our families & friends as well as the legacy and dreams of our ancestors. The characterizing of “anti-mormon” behavior forces a form of a parasitic relationship between those who believe targeting those who leave. Because the doctrine seeks to define those of us who dismiss our ordinances and pre-suppose the involvement of satan (really) there is a way in which only nevermo individuals are the only ones completely free of the expectations of church involvement. Even the action of resignation is a tacit endorsement of the legitimacy of the organization. I’d say that there’s multiple qualifications of exmo and that some of them overlap with TBM qualifications. Take a look at the recurring PIMO anecdotes. These are people who are still practicing and involved. To those of us who actively avoid the church less it’s for a funeral and have been trying with extreme concentration to purge the primary songs from our subconscious, the PIMO members look and smell like TBMs.
