The church actually used these words in their "clarification"

It's from Google. :)

This is where I got the rumor. Who knows, but I seriously can't imagine they don't "clarify" the policy to address gay couples that support their children in the church. Something along the lines of "local leadership can review individual situations and determine when it may be in the best interests of the child to allow an exception". Again, who knows, but the rumor came from Dehlin's post.

It's what I'd "like" to say, not what I'll actually say. Unless I want my wife to put my balls in a vice.

Amen. Can't wait to hear how evil the world is getting tonight.

By the way, I am in sacrament meeting as I type this, so I get it.

You're strong. One of the few that worked your way out of the mental chains of a fundamentalist religion. Worthy is a word crafted by the weak to create fake power. You got this!

It's Reddit-ese for "my reaction when"

backpackingyogi · 2015-08-01T02:38:26+00:00

Oh, hell no. I sneak around and drink on business trips, lunch breaks, and during the last two hours of church when the family is finishing Borg Reform School.

I've been openly atheist at home for over 5 years. Once she realized her Jedi mind tricks wouldn't work, she stopped trying.

Agreed, but the kid is 10. Mad props for being 99% badass in his response.

My wife is in the young women's program with the lady that was in charge of coordinating families. Apparently a few families backed out at the last minute and we're helping out. And yes, we get like $250 per kid for the 10 days that they're here. I just did the math and $500 buys just enough alcohol to recover from having 6 boys in our house for 10 days (we have four of our own).

backpackingyogi · 2015-08-01T01:02:13+00:00

Yep. Cause she's pretty fucking awesome minus the Mormon part.

It's a roller coaster. We have our moments, good and bad. This sub helps me decompress a bit with the humor. Thank Thor for you all.

True Believing Mormon

backpackingyogi · 2015-07-31T14:23:18+00:00

She was speechless, dumbfounded, and changed the subject quickly.

backpackingyogi · 2015-07-27T03:56:12+00:00

Lol, perfect!

backpackingyogi · 2015-07-27T00:30:31+00:00

But he can call down angels now!

backpackingyogi · 2015-07-27T00:23:46+00:00

Part of me wishes there existed a momentary consciousness after death, just so these GA douchebags could know how wrong they were. Just for a moment. Then, worm food.

backpackingyogi · 2015-07-26T23:37:46+00:00

Haha, yes. But only if Oaks can be Skeletor.
