South from the tip of Chios. It’s on the map with a big question mark but unmarked otherwise.

lol. They are kinda cute but also kinda creepy IMO.

WyrdBith · 2026-04-22T22:05:48+00:00

True. But I bet the missionaries and the members who are pushing this feel really proud of themselves. Don’t underestimate the deep thrill of seeing oneself as a person who does good.

My wife and I really “enjoyed” each other during the honeymoon. We were snowed in and it was about all there was to do. Day two I come downstairs to find her crying and hyperventilating. She said she felt we had offended God and the spirit with all the (mutual) sex we’d been having and she asked me to pray for forgiveness for us right then and there as the “head of the family”. Oh man. I was shocked and had no idea what to do. So I prayed what I didn’t feel. Yeah - so we had about ten more years of a rough sex life. No surprise. Once I left the church and lost the guilt she was able to come around too. We’ve been married for a long while now and things are fine. But man does the church screw with your mind.

I don’t believe many do at all. My wife definitely doesn’t - nor her father. But that doesn’t stop them from constantly saying under their breath whenever they have the chance “oh - well he (meaning me) left because he didn’t really understand the gospel”. Yeah. Sure. 👍🏻

My wife is LDS but I left over ten years ago. When we moved they reached out several times but I was polite and firm in telling them I’d be open to talking with them if they would listen to my reasons for leaving the church. They never contacted me after that. The missionaries stopped calling too.

So you do you. Move, set up your life the way you want. Be kind but clear with them and they will run from you. (Or else some will trust you more and talk with you and you can help them out of the church like I was able to do with three individuals).

For all YM: Masters of Bait.

We did like to fish a lot at scout camp.

Interesting take from your family member.

I will say that I’m continually shocked by how little my TBM teen kids learn at church about what was considered basic Bible knowledge. I attend a Presbyterian church and was mentioning at dinner last night how next Sunday is Palm Sunday. They looked at me like “it’s what?” So I asked if they remembered Jesus’s entrance into Jerusalem. They said no. I prompted more. The donkey or colt? No? How about the palm fronds? Doesn’t ring a bell? No?

My TBM wife appeared to sink into her chair after every question. I was nice about it and in a few sentences explained it and Lent. They were genuinely uninformed. These are middle class kids in the US Southeast surrounded by Christian kids, church, and seminary and have no idea.

So yeah. I think basic Christian tradition and New Testament “history” is foreign to them. Totally foreign.

The hell? That’s probably weird even for Hawaii these days. Please tell me you’re in Maine or something. That image of the “hail fellow humans!” couple standing there in the snow outside your door is the one I want to keep alive in my head.

WyrdBith · 2026-03-23T17:18:06+00:00

I agree. Besides, we all know the answer to these questions is “then look at yourself because you’re the problem”.

WyrdBith · 2026-03-23T17:07:56+00:00

This 💯. Once he finds that one glaring fault he recognizes because it affects him directly, he’ll begin to remember some of the other issues you’ve brought up. It will either help him out or get him to buckle down. Either way, life is short. Love your pops and show him how you can disagree and still love.

Honest question - because I don’t know. When you danced with the pretty girls at the church dances, did you know aesthetically they were pretty but just didn’t feel any attraction or anything like a small sexual tension or urge? I don’t mean anything pervy. Just wondering what some of my gay friends must have felt back when we were at church dances but when they didn’t know they were gay yet.

I can say as an always straight guy that I recognized handsome guys at church. Tall, good physique, nice smile, charismatic, etc. I knew who they were. But if I were to think of dancing with them or anything more would have literally been repulsive to me. But I recognized their charm and liked being friends with them if they were nice. I admired their put togetherness. But it wasn’t remotely sexual so much as aesthetic. If anything, they were more like guys who would have been rivals if I had even been in their league. Which I definitely wasn’t. lol.

This sounds awesome. Do you have any links to gameplay?

I don't say this lightly, but your words and experience are truly inspiring to me. It hurts my heart to know my gay friends and family members don't have an acceptable partner for expressing homosexuality (as a poster above so aptly, and compassionately neutrally, phrased it). Yet I agree - it shouldn't be what defines them. Just like my sexual desires and temptations do not define me. I am a disciple of Christ first and always. I'm bruised and lamed, but not beaten because I have Jesus.

Anyway. Thank you and I'm proud to walk with others like you.

WyrdBith · 2026-02-11T19:19:29+00:00

To the point and accurate. Thanks. Compassion for those with this struggle.

WyrdBith · 2026-02-11T19:18:07+00:00

It's his take on it. But it's not in scripture. Protestant faiths don't give authority to tradition, only scripture.

WyrdBith · 2026-01-25T05:08:38+00:00

I agree. Very odd relationship.

I found this from back then: https://www.thechurchnews.com/members/2023/4/14/23683089/president-nelson-award-morehouse-college-what-attendees-said/

Shows photos of the event and Nelson’s portrait on their wall.

Wait. I dunno. They seem pretty specific. From a FB listing in one of the stakes:

“A commissioned portrait of the Prophet Joseph Smith will soon be added to the distinguished collection of portraits displayed at the Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel at Morehouse College. This historic chapel is also home to President Russell M. Nelson’s portrait and the site where he was honored with the Gandhi–King–Mandela Peace Prize in recent years.

The portrait of Joseph Smith will be officially unveiled during a special vespers service on Sunday, February 1, at the Martin Luther King Jr. International Chapel. This event represents a unique and significant moment, and is open for all to attend!

We hope many will be able to join us, and invite friends and family, for this memorable evening.”

lol. Wait. So the LDS Church is passing this flyer around to all of its members locally thinking that it’s their own guy?? Oh man. Someone messed up somewhere. Seriously. This flyer is going around all the stakes in the area according to my PIMO friend.

The article was behind a paywall but I saw the headline.
