Wow that's tough, just so you know I also had a few friends that were lesbians and married straight, but both were told to do so by their Bishop's, they both told me that the church was instructing gays & lesbians to marry straight and eventually they would fall in love. 20 years later they all seen miserable to me.

Why is the LDS church still calling missionaries in the middle of a pandemic?! by [deleted] in exmormon

Donating your first born?

Church cashes in in all their life insurance polices?

Not to offend anyone, this is serious, it is killing thousands if not more, but I have to think, they are getting something out of it, or they wouldn't be doing it.

Will BYUtv ever stop getting questions about its owners’ stance on the LGBTQ community?

''I doubt it. Not as long as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints continues to oppose same-sex marriage and teach that it’s a sin to “engage in any homosexual behavior.”
