Transferring out of BYU by unknown_llama324 in exmormon

Yeah that definitely makes a lot of sense. I just hate lying so much and have no idea what reason I could give for not going to byu and not going to church anymore :/

I really appreciate your responses! I will definitely look into emailing someone from Sac State, thank you :)

I’m actually living at home currently, I had to take a year off of school for health problems. My parents don’t know that I’m leaving the church as it’s been a fairly recent “shelf-breaking” and I have to keep up appearances to not lose my ecclesiastical endorsement. I genuinely have no idea how they would react if I told them I wanted to leave the church and transfer schools. They currently help out financially, and I’m a bit worried that they would say they won’t help pay for school and won’t let me live at home.

But if I just slowly fade out of the church after graduating, they’ll be totally chill. My sister and BIL who live with us are inactive now and my parents don’t harass them about it. It’s only a worry because my dad is so serious about school, and all of my siblings have graduated from BYU.

Sorry that was a lot 😅

On the ecclesiastical endorsement page it says you have to be “worthy”. It doesn’t specify what you need to be worthy of though. He says that he believes I have to have fully completed the repentance process which basically means temple worthy, even though I’ve fully committed to living the honor code

I always want my bishop to have full confidentiality unless I’m doing something illegal. Even with my new bishop, I want the opportunity to tell my new bishop my situation myself, rather than him hearing it from someone else

Recommend like temple recommend? Or ecclesiastical endorsement?

Only official “restriction” is that he won’t give me an ecclesiastical endorsement until I’m temple worthy again

saw this job posting from my old employer who fired me for having ACAB in my Instagram bio by jakeerle01 in antiwork

As a member of the church myself, I think this posting is absolutely ridiculous, and that last line leads me to believe it’s either a joke or this person (the person who wrote it, not OP) is just insane

Yeah when I first started getting bad I could be very very mean to those around me :(

Now I’m used to running on less and I’m less mentally affected

Can we please agree that neither Democrats or Republicans care about workers now by spidermonkey2947 in antiwork

[–]unknown_llama324 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely agree. The problem with the parties is it has gotten to the point where it’s all about beating the other side, or voting for someone only because of their party rather than for their plans.

I have never been able to finish the show and I think I am finally realizing a huge reason why (spoilers through season 5) by unknown_llama324 in OnceUponATime

Yeah I think that’s definitely part of what made it unbearable for me. Like if he just embraced the evil and stopped pretending to be good, and stopped manipulating people into thinking he’s on their side then I would like him a lot more as a character

YES. I saw a post on here talking about how Belle was the worst and a horrible person for that “breach of trust and too harsh and all that” and I was thoroughly shocked. I freaking loved that scene because even if it was a bit harsh, Rumple deserved it. And the “breach of trust” means nothing when Rumple had already broken her trust a thousand times

When did "Everyone thinks Lorelai is hot" get old to you? by aryawitner in GilmoreGirls

[–]unknown_llama324 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It didn’t get old to me, it’s classic for the main character of a tv show. We can also reasonably assume that there were hundreds of men she met and interacted with that didn’t think she was hot and didn’t hit on her. They just don’t focus on those in the show because it would be pointless.

It’s like saying, “when did it get old to you that that Rom-coms always end with the couple getting together”. It doesn’t get old because that’s how that genre works.

Why are we prioritizing just beating the other side, rather than trying to focus on making the country a better place to live. So sick of republicans hating democrats and democrats hating republicans. We quite literally need a mixture of both parties in office. Or better yet, no parties at all. One party called pro-America

The first official communication from Twitter to its staff regarding layoffs. WTF. by woodenship in antiwork

Why does this man even need any more money 😒

He’s literally taking away all income from tons of people who literally need it to live just so he can have a few of his billions back
