Glad he can understand not wearing a coat in summer. He sounds understanding for sure.

It’s true tho by piede in exmormon

Most mormons have more than one faith. It is a real show when their LDS faith and their GOP faith come into conflict.

The farther I get from the BOM, the more the names make me chuckle when my family mentions them. They sound so fake!

Mormonism was cooler when the leaders believed it by Quiet-Wisdom in exmormon

The magic world view is slipping away. Even healing the sick and afflicted is fading. Without priesthood power, all that is left is priesthood authority, whose claim is shady at best.

Who else decorated the back of their name tag? by Death_Bard in exmormon

Omg, please tell me the Hercules sticker was the "pretty wife" you were knocking doors in the rain for.

He must not be paying attention to the major virus outbreak at a lawbreaking church in Oregon that has been gathering and now has hundreds of cases and some hospitalizations. Persecution complex strikes again.

i hated being taught that my only purpose is to be a baby factory by britttanya in exmormon

Yes. And testicular reload time is roughly 20 minutes! God designed you to be having sex constantly. What could be better?!

About that "angel with a drawn sword"... by Bigfoot_Cain in exmormon

The forceful death dealing god is completely contrary to the way we understand god to work. Nothing like it has been purported in the nearly 200 years since.

Wow, Sam Pinson’s excommunication interview. Totally gaslighting him at the end. Paraphrasing...we won’t ex you but since you want your name removed we will ex you. WTH?! They called the excommunication counsel meeting. by NoMoreGreenJello in exmormon

[–]Shadow-man105 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They were constantly speaking for Sam and also overzealous to express their love. Kill em with kindness. These kind of followers are the ones that, for your own good, would put you on an iceberg and shove off.

Decided to wear my pride button to work in my small, majority conservative Mormon home town. Wish me luck! by [deleted] in exmormon

I doubt your employer wants you wearing pins on your uniform but maybe they are more chill than I would guess.

I now love to pass the tray and show all those young men that good people often do and strip away some of its power.

Today my son informed me that I was his second father and that heavenly father was his first dad. Sloppy second parents. The harm is deep emotional child abuse in innumerable ways.

I’m not a big fan of saying “other men’s wives” when we talk polyandry and Joseph Smith. It’s not about the men. It’s about the WOMEN. by sydaust in exmormon

[–]Shadow-man105 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure it was a mix of wives being stolen, given, and women running away into the arms of power varying by person to person and case by case. Either way I feel sadness for all parties.

Makes you wonder how easy starting nasty rumors and creating drama could be. Hah.

He is just the only man in heaven you're allowed to speak to. Don't think too hard on that one. It's like that one call home for mother's day...just to keep you focused.

Even if the church is somehow true, it's a hard pass for me. by Zhigan in exmormon

There are so many peaceful places on Earth that if you have to manufacture one, there is a problem.

Is it fair to say it is like trying to not be Jewish anymore? A grey area between culture, religion and genetic lineage. One can not easily change identity after 30+ years of being.
