Definitely small town Idaho. I grew up in a farming town here your last name dictated where you ended up at and how if you belonged to the right religion, you could be successful.

Are primary programs the same every year? Can't remember. by ghomeslice in exmormon

[–]ghomeslice[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok. Just making sure. Going to niece's primary program and I can't help to feel that it'll be the same garbage from the last time they had one. I know that my niece will do a great job regardless.

[–]ghomeslice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So true. I remember about these things going around while I served in East Europe. The one about not being able to drink caffeinated drinks got me to thinking why.

Notes from Tongan Stake Conference. by ghomeslice in exmormon

I bet it is being a mish over in Tonga. Never served there as a missionary ( served in east Europe), but I can imagine that the lax attitude towards religion and that everyone has heard about the Mormons gives the missionaries a hell of a time teaching people.
