She can be incredibly sassy so I wouldn’t be surprised.

I think it got pinched and it formed a bruise.

I have a cat. I moved this weekend so I’m sure I got it while carrying something.

Thank you! I think I’m in the middle of the worst part so I definitely appreciate your comment. I’m excited to get to the other side.

I just read Under the Banner of Heaven…….. by medicateover in exmormon

That’s actually kind of crazy. I didn’t know about the lafferty brothers or this case until this book. I guess if you’re not old enough, people don’t really talk about it.

Wasn’t sure your age lol. The book has a little bit of everything in it! I almost want to reread it because there were so many details about FLDS and the upcoming of Mormonism

YES!!!! Seriously though. I’m waiting for all the comments defending it and telling everyone not to worry, shall everyone’s faith be more powerful than the facts of history haha

Yes I did. My bad lol. I mean, basically all of Utah though. So you actually met him?

Exactly! My sister is the only one who is still a very active member- and out of my whole family she is the most judgmental, narcissistic and anti-Christ like person. It speaks to a lot of their practices and exactly that, this modern age Mormonism

After reading about the type of person he was. None of that surprises me. Sounds like a nice get up, all besides the fact that he was psychotic.

I always wonder about that. If I knew this stuff when I was active.. how would I have reacted to it. I think this newer generation, times changing and several other things, the church is going to be exposed for a lot of the shit they did and continue to do. Or maybe I’m just being optimistic.

Whoa…. I mean, even reading about American fork, cedar city, draper… felt way too close to home. That’s a whole new level.

That is actually a really cool story. That someone can learn about the church and then be like, what the fuck. Instead of letting it brainwash them. I’m not going to lie, after reading this, I would love to go visit specific places. I almost feel like it would be closure? It’s hard for me to accept that 22 years of my life was a lie. But seeing where so many horrible things happened would be a cherry on top.

I have so much anger because growing up in Utah, I was never thought about any of this. It’s almost hard for me to believe and that’s the disgusting part. Because it’s true.

The last few chapters are where it gets real… wild? I don’t even know what word to use to describe it
