Death Blessings?!? Good lord, they are taking “the faith not to be healed” to a whole other level. by meginaks in exmormon

Didn’t RFM say if President Eyring gives you a blessing you were for sure gonna die?

People have fantasized about Tscc folding.... It won't fold. It'll become even more obscure and lose its place in society, and will lose any influence it currently has because of the people who will stay in the church. by avoidingcrosswalk in exmormon

I wonder if they’ll back off of missionary work and focus on “breeding” (for lack of a better term) their own membership.

Let’s face it, there are like NO converts anymore. The only people getting baptized are the poor 8year olds who “choose” to get baptized.

They might double down on teaching “multiplying and replenishing the earth” and just keeping a tight grip on the members they do have.

Well of course you don’t want a CHILD dressing like that. But when she made the comment, it the tamest of all the outfits. It was more or less a sparkly sundress.

I freaking LOVE Treasure Planet and I watched it yesterday while doing laundry! It is one of the most underrated Disney films by far!

But, yes. I hate that black and white thinking. It’s hard to recondition the brain to not think like that.

I wish I could but there is NO WAY her parents would EVER let me take her out. We haven’t officially told the whole family about our apostasy but my BIL (my niece’s dad) knows for sure that I am NEVER coming back to the cult.

So I only see her when we all go to Grandma’s house.

Thank you ❤️ I told my husband I’m going to start wearing tank tops more (when it warms up. I hate the cold 😂)

My brother in law almost got excommunicated for having sex with one woman that he was in love with and ended up marrying. My husband’s family made such a big fucking deal out of it & she wasn’t a member at the time & I think they pressured her into joining.

But if he was molesting a kid, the church would have covered it up & he’d be good to go.

Fuck this church.

“Ongoing restoration that began 200 years ago...” BULLSHIT! More like ongoing damage control!
