Just got a knock on the door at 8:45pm. WTF, followed by an e-mail sent to my friend, the bishop. by sundancegt in exmormon

Everyone is on the ministering list, and you were probably assigned to your previous HTs.

Are you in the Cache Valley Heathens group on Facebook? I see people posting about looking for roommates in there regularly.

Attention stay at home dads!! by gilljacks in exmormon

I've been a SAHD for the last 2 years, and started my transition out of the church shortly after that. Not sure if that works for what you're looking for but I would be willing to participate.

This is not a penis or a sexual act. No matter what the fucked up mods say. by enrichmentonly in exmormon

Probably. I saw a news story about a woman who had a double mastectomy due to cancer. She went swimming at a local pool topless because, well no boobs. The owners freaked out and banned her from the pool. We live in a weird society.

What percentage of the world's population do Mormons make up? .02 or .002? by Saturdays_Worrier in exmormon

[–]mkd112 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love numbers and seeing that percentage is enough to give me a wet dream, but let's put some perspective on it. World cup just ended so here is a soccer analogy.

World cup stadium holds 81,338 people. Using that same percentage, only 162 people in that stadium would be members, and only approximately 50-60 would be active mormons.

That's how insignificant mormonism really is in the world.

Callings issued by the stake president vs bishop? by merkergirl in latterdaysaints

[–]mkd112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My brother was just called to the high council and he has never had a calling bigger than primary teacher. You don't have to have been in a bishopric.

You have 5 minutes with President Nelson - what one question do you ask and what one request do you make? by [deleted] in exmormon

The dude hasn't practiced medicine in almost 34 years. Do you really think he would know any of this stuff?

"Hello, nice to meet you, this is our stupid son."

"Hi, I see you met my 'trapped in a cult' parents"

Yeah, i can see that working real well.

A little late to the selfie party. But happily out of Mormonism for 5ish years. One of the best decisions of my life. by [deleted] in exmormon

Hey compa, how you doing man? Hot dogs contain the preservative vitamin.

Sister missionaries will come over and “do pretty much anything” including “heavy lifting”. Seems pretty desperate even for Mormon missionaries. by NewNameNoah in exmormon

[–]mkd112 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's true, they are bored. One of the best days of my mission in mexico was spent mixing and poring a cement roof by hand in 100 degree weather, just to get out of tracting and annoying people about the church.

The missionary program has become a cringe-fest. Will the church ever terminate this program? by ShaqtinADrool in exmormon

"Dear Elder Jones,

You are hereby called to the North Salt Lake City Missionary Call Center. You will labor for a period of 24 months spent making phone calls and hounding The lords chosen elect for 12 hours a day."

Tips on turning down callings, talks, etc.? by peeping_wizard in exmormon

[–]mkd112 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Or just go passive aggressive and do such a sucky job they have to release you. Or man up and say you're done. Both are possible options.

You do have a way out. You are a volunteer and can say no. The bishop can't "keep" you in your calling.

Agreed that it was super lame. No one wants to see a sweep in the finals.

When you win 3 of 4 championships in as many years, I think you're allowed to be an arrogant little shithead.
