To my Mormon Democrat friends, I lived in Seattle for years, so do not tell me this is invented.
I watched it happen with my own eyes.
The left runs that city, and what they have done to it is a preview, a finished sample of the country they intend to build, and the only question left for the rest of us is whether we hand them the rest of the map.
You do not need to publicly burn the family proclamation if you can raise a generation that cannot read it.
The entire arch of it rests on one stone, that gender & marriage is an essential characteristic of eternal identity, and the leftists are far too smart to swing at that stone in the daylight where parents can hear.
So they go around us.
They go to the children in the years before a child has the words to resist, and they teach the exact inversion as if it were arithmetic.
The Human Rights Campaign hands teachers a lesson built on a snowman, the same snowman every five year old has rolled together with cold hands, and uses it to tell the class that what they are inside might be girl, or boy, or both, or neither.
Then the vocabulary climbs onto chart paper for children still sounding out their letters. That is not a competing opinion about the Proclamation. That is its first sentence read backward and pressed into the hands of a kindergartner.
And when parents asked for nothing more than a warning before such lessons came, so they might teach their own children first, they were told no.
In 2025 the Supreme Court looked at a Maryland district that set gender and sexuality storybooks in front of children as young as three, and the Court found, in the district’s own teacher materials, that the books were built to disrupt how those children thought about sex and gender.
Disrupt was their word, not ours.
Muslim and Jewish and Christian parents had to claw their way to the highest court in the land merely to learn what was being taught to their five year olds, and three justices were willing to deny them even that.
So hold it together and see the project whole.
They are not debating the family doctrine, they are dissolving it, reaching the children early enough that the document outlives its own readers and sits in our scriptures like an inscription in a dead tongue, revered and unread.
To a child raised and indoctrinated in school on that snowman, eternal manhood, womanhood, and the nuclear family will not only sound false, it will sound like gibberish, and you cannot rebel against a truth you were never handed the language to hold.
Please my Latter Day Saints. We need you back in the fight.
@latterdaylaura@McJuggerNuggets Iceland is held up as an example of good because they have all but eliminated Down syndrome. The dirty little secret is the they're all aborted. I can't imagine looking god in the eye and having to confess I killed one of his special little spirits.
@RSNBUtes@shoot3rk The sacrament isn’t a reward for perfection. It’s a reset button for people who keep screwing up.
No one is more on our side than the Savior. He allows us to take—and keep retaking—His exams.
To become like Him will take thousands of second chances—maybe a million-Lynn Robbins
@DeadBug15 I got released from a calling about 6-7 months ago and I've felt adrift since. No new calling. Just felt that I'm not needed. No one would care if I'm there or not. It's dangerous territory. That was my wife's suggestion about ministering and it's helped a lot.
I hope the Ayatollah is dead
I hope civilian casualties are limited
I hope the Iranian people can finally get the freedom they deserve
I pray all of our troops come home safe
