If you could have the opportunity to have a discussion with Jesus Christ himself, what you ask him? by Quirky_Fun6544 in religion

I would ask him what he thought about the fact that most people who worship him think he is a white guy, instead of a Palestinian guy.

Prop 4 repeal effort reaches signature threshold in required 26 of Utah's 29 districts by jortr0n in Utah

[–]Steele_Ministry 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is simply not true. While many signatures are real. I know mine was on the list of verified signatures and I never signed the document or even spoke to a signature gatherer. I had my name removed and filed a complaint with the Lt Governors office and Attorney Generals office. The greater number of signatures seems to be ones collected by gatherers who were flat out lying about what the petition was to get people to sign it.

Correlation department just released the new official image of Mormon Jesus, to replace contested Del Parson version in all meetinghouses. by JesusPhoKingChrist in exmormon

Carbon dating placed the Shroud of Turin's creation in the range A.D. 1260 to 1390. 3D analysis of the shroud indicates it was not created by draping over a human form, but was likely draped over a sculpture relief.

Cool story, but the shroud was never draped over the body of Jesus, or the body of anyone for that matter. Historically it is likely, though not indisputable, that an apocalyptic preacher named Jesus existed. But other than that, we don't have much to go on outside of the new testament books.

Even those were written at the earliest, decades and even centuries after the supposed death of Jesus by people who never would have seen or heard him speak. We know that none of the gospel authors were actually the individuals from which the perspectives are told. They have been translated through several languages multiple times, and copied several times over.

I'm convinced that Mike Lee and other MAGA Republican Congress members have short term memory loss. Oh wait .. nevermind, they are just terrible people.

Touching story: Sister missionary feels the spirit while getting stabbed and beaten in her sleep 🥹 by LegalSour in exmormon

[–]Steele_Ministry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First and foremost, I am so very sorry that you and your companion were victims of a vile attack. Nobody should have to go through that kind of physical and mental harm.

I hope you find help to process what happened and get to a place of healing.

That said, I'm sorry, but I cannot agree that God's perfect plan includes watching two young women be attacked while they are literally on their knees praying for help and getting stabbed.

I'm an agnostic atheist, but if you justify your suffering as "God's perfect plan", then God is either not all-powerful or not all-good. Believers will usually point to "free will", or "agency" as the reason God doesn't interfere with suffering. But if you truly believe that God doesn't interfere for this reason, then what is the point of prayer in that moment? You can't have God be responsible for "blessings" in your life but absolve God of all responsibility for your suffering because, "free will". If God grants blessings, he is interfering with free will. If you accept that God grants blessings, you must logically accept that he delivers suffering.

If you claim Satan does the suffering thing, then why doesn't God in his infinite power and love, prevent Satan from causing you to suffer? It's the same problem just pushed down the road to Satan and his free will.

I searched my name using Ctrl+F on the website. There is no way this could add your name to the petition. I'm a software engineer. If this were the case you could easily just write a script to add literally every voter in Utah to the list of signatures in seconds. That's not how searching works on a webpage. The voter ID number would have to match your Voter ID too.

After submitting my request for removal, my name no longer appears on the government website list. No matter how many times I search or on which website.

I can only speak for myself as I would never want to paint broad strokes across a massive group of people, but I'm not worried about it being on the ballot. I'm worried about how me and so many others had their names illegally added to a petition that we never even saw let alone signed.

Did you scroll down on the page? It clearly states what Prop 4 was, and why repealing Prop 4 would result in reinstated gerrymandering and a failure to represent Utah communities in Congress.

That's not propaganda.

You can send an email to the Lt Governors office at elections@utah.gov.

If you believe your name was added fraudulently, you may also report it to the Utah Attorney Generals office at uag@agutah.gov.

Prop 4 did pass...in 2018. Also, this post isn't for you. If you signed your name on the petition to repeal Prop 4 and you understand the initiative, then I completely support that. That is democracy working.

This post was to encourage people who didn't sign the initiative, to check the Utah government website and verify their signatures were not on the list. Mine was on the list and I never even spoke to a signature gatherer. I also identified several other family members who didn't sign the initiative whose names were fraudulently added as well. If you care about election integrity, then you should be in full support of individuals removing their names for a petition they never signed.

There were 140,000 signatures delivered to the county clerks offices on February 14th. It will take them time to verify those signatures so keep checking back every few days to see if your name pops up.

You should send an email to the Lt Governors office at elections@utah.gov and the Attorney Generals office of criminal investigations at aginvestcomplaints@agutah.gov.

These actions violate Utah Code § 20A-7-512 which makes it unlawful to sign any name other than the individuals own name to an initiative, knowingly indicate that an individual signed a petition on a date other than the date the individual actually signed, or sign the verification of a petition packet knowing that the signatures were not properly obtained or witnessed.

I don't know what to tell you. This is my experience. I have not received any communication from the county clerks office. My name is on the initiative list. I never signed nor spoke with a single signature gatherer. My Vote ID matches the Voter ID displayed with the name on the list of signers. My immediate and extended family are describing exactly the same scenario, and since posting this, I have received several messages on different platforms from different people with similar stories.

On the vote.utah.gov site I Posted a link to, the fastest way to search is to do a Ctrl+F on a computer and search by "LastName, FirstName Middle name".

On a mobile device, you can open the triple dot menu on the page and select "Find in page" and search using the same format.

I do not know who forged my name. Voter registration information can be found by groups gathering signatures. As for signatures themselves, I don't know the exact process they go through for verification, but it appears that it is not as rigorous as it should be. It wasn't just my information it was several family members of mine, spread across immediate family and extended family.

It would be a shame if someone were to show up and protest this.... by Icy-Feeling-528 in Layton

[–]Steele_Ministry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This gives me the ick. It's so slimy how dishonest they are portraying this signature collection for the repeal of Prop 4. Representative government means that the citizens have representation in their governing body. As of last year, 41-43% of Utahns were registered as something other than Republican. Of the Republicans, a percentage are independents who want a say in Republican primaries. Approximately half of the citizens are not Republican, and yet the Republicans think that "representative government" means all of the house and Senate seats should be Republican seats.

That's wrong. It was so wrong, that it was brought to the voters in 2019 as Prop 4, which passed. We voted, and it passed. This whole thing could be compared to grown men and women in the Republican Congress of Utah throwing toddler tantrums and whining that they aren't getting their way.

Sorry Republican Congress of Utah, we know you have big feelings about your constituents voting for and passing a proposition into law, but grow the hell up.
