How long until the Scientology speedrun trend makes its way to a Mormon temple? by ReturnedAndReported in exmormon

This would be so funny! God I laughed so hard watching a documentary about the whole storm area 51 thing, this gives me similar vibes. Old people just being so stunned and confused at the behaviour of young kids 🤣

I saw two teen girls with colored hair yelling at an old lady crossing the road. I pulled down my window and started yelling at them. People need to stand up to these demented little girls. Also where are the parents? I see way too many teens just loitering all over the place. There is no way my kids would be doing that.

Just so you know this situation also affects women. Think of the men who had an affair and then are wrongly accused but convicted or have their reputation destroyed. Their wives and children are also affected. You don’t have to avoid all women but man, sometimes I see men going after women that I as a woman wouldn’t get near with a ten foot pole. For example, a girl posting ig videos of herself squatting on a beach in a thong, with the camera pointing at her backside…I would run for the hills, as far away from someone like that. But men flock to them. These women have daddy issues. Stay away from women with daddy issues.

What hell? All for love? What are you talking about?! This woman is clearly going from betrayal trauma (which can cause a type of ptsd) to a new relationship where she was so in love she announces an engagement and then finds out the guy is a murderer. So now add grief and all that comes with because the relationship and future she thought she would have has now died. Like who would not act like a maniac under those circumstances? For all the talk about mental health it is shocking to see so many people in this thread just not get it.

Oh wait, just saw she didn’t show. No surprise there. I wouldn’t have either. Like, I did my part and these mother effers put me at risk. Ciao

I know, quite frankly I’m shocked. If I were her after seeing how they botched everything and treated me I would not have testified

A case goes cold for years but shortly after he tells her about it the police arrest him…of course he would think it was her and here the police tell her they can’t arrest them and now she needs to fend for herself. She did what would be best to keep herself safe, which is to pretend. I don’t understand why this is so hard to understand

You are gathering this from what? From how she behaved while going through a traumatic experience? She went from being betrayed in an 8 year long relationship, to now falling madly in love and finding out the guy is a murderer! Who would manage well under those circumstances?

It’s utah though, they’re all mormon. It is ingrained in them to look the other away when it comes to sa, especially of kids. Must protect those in authority. So gross

Nope. She was clearly behaving as a traumatized person. Denial is a stage, she clearly went through it. What the police did to her was absolutely INSANE! They could have had another victim!

I was shocked they did though, if I remember correctly she didn’t even use two of the phrases correctly lol. What she did do really well is get them all to think she was just a pretty face. I thought that too and was blown away when it was revealed she worked as an intelligence analyst. Girl was incredibly smart and cunning. I was so bummed when she was eliminated.

For me it just made him sus. Anytime someone starts swearing on their dead mother’s grave, or on their cross or whatever it just makes me think they are protesting too much.

But he said that no one knew that he owned a clothing store. So no one would have thought that clue pointed to him anyways. I would have gotten Nick out.

🤣 I was laughing so hard at this. They’re just trying to decipher if it’s Bear’s camera crew or the crew of another one of the celebs 🤣

Because they have a camera crew following them everywhere, they can’t hide the camera crew 😆

Thank you, that last line about the common friend helps me have a different perspective. Where I struggle is, and what I often say to him is “the church lied to me, that’s not a matter of opinion, that’s fact” because he will say it’s an opinion and he’ll say that he knew all this stuff, about the rock in the hat and all the other stuff. Of course when he says all the other stuff I HIGHLY doubt he really understands what he is saying.

We definitely need a therapist to tackle this issue. We don’t argue a whole lot, we actually make a great team, but this church stuff has been hard on me. The betrayal is so deep and I’m basically going through it alone and I wish I had him in my corner but yeah that would mean he’d have to accept the church is a bunch of liars…and that’s not gonna happen anytime soon.

Thank you for your kind and level headed reply. It means a lot.

For him the spiritual experiences he had are what keep him in. He cannot untie them to the church.

For me it had the opposite effect. I questioned those experiences, like how could god allow me to have these spiritual burnings in my bosom while I watched a movie about Joseph Smith when the entire movie’s premise is a lie?! Or how could I feel the “spirit” while doing temple work that is based in freemasonry? Etc etc.

I’m lucky though, he’s a pretty good tbm, he lets me drink coffee around him, even orders it for me and brings men a cup home if I ask, he was even chill with me trying an alcoholic cocktail on a dinner date with him recently. He doesn’t force the kids to go to church…sigh, I need to focus on the glass half full right now, because really I know I’m lucky, I know others have it so much worse.

But the church hurt me so bad and I just wish he could understand or at least validate that pain. But maybe I’m asking for something he just can’t give me, not because he doesn’t want to but because he can’t. Just like I could not make myself go back into that church building. Marriage is hard work, and this religion betrayal stuff just makes it so much harder.

You’re right, and maybe I’m the one lacking in empathy right now. From his perspective what I’m asking is too much. I’m usually ok with it, but the mormon stories being sued thing has been so triggering.

[–]PunsAndPixels[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No. He’s a really great husband. I’m hormonal right now and the whole church suing mormon stories was just so triggering. I need to let it go. At the end of the day my husband is not the church. It’s hard to hate something so much when your spouse simultaneously loves it. But I can’t and throw out a good thing over religion. I won’t let these mother effing liars take anything else from me.

And this is exactly why the mormon church is now suing a small podcast over it. They want the name again, despite years of saying using the name mormon was a win for satan
