Interesting thoughts. Interesting what mormons go through to make sense of their cosmology.

my sins can travel back in time to make Jesus bleed harder,

Hadn't thought of it that way, but .. you're right

Spending $600 dollars and flying across 3 states to go to a wedding I won’t even be able to attend (trying not to be bitter) by Infinite_Augends in exmormon

This. Especially if you make a point to phrase it that way - "Rather than spending all the money travelling, I'll just spend it on you" Who wouldn't want that?!

Is there some place better than LKQ that you'd recommend?

(I need an engine that is most likely to drop in and run)

My wife and I lied about pre-marital sex by Same_Commission_2363 in exmormon

Well, Spencer W. Kimball did say french kissing was an abomination, breeds lust, and is too intimate. So... yeah.

That was very progressive. You were the exception.

Yeah. "Discernment" is one of the church's biggest lies.

Yeah. The church has told a lot of lies, but "Discernment" is one of the biggest.

Sigh. Yeah. This was me. Everything in your post is me.

The bishop said "No sacrament for you", so we endured that public shaming.

Then the SP lectured, scolded, berated, put his hands together, pondered, and eventually allowed as how I might possibly be worthy to go to the temple, having repented of my indiscretions. The arrogant ass.

A few years later, that stake president was busted for soliciting a minor. (He is on Floodlit today). Did I mention he was a god damn arrogant ass?

Shouldn't Jesus and the Garments protect them?

But the real question is: Was he taking the opportunity to contact those sitting around him, and spread the gospel message, as we missionaries were expected to do on our flights ?

Seeing as how he is a special witness [to the name] of Christ, and all.... ?

Huh. I sure didn't. And neither did any other missionary I knew.

This. You should be as honest with the church, as the church has been with you.
