@prolifeutah And where’s this same passion when children, like in Texas are gunned down? Where’s the outrage for those lives? Once they’re born, why is it there isn’t a willingness to fight to keep them safe? I know, I know, guns don’t kill people, but they sure make it easier
@the_slimmy @shelflessbishop My own integrity was challenged. If I stay, I must live a fake life. So I left. I applaud you @shelflessbishop. I truly don’t know how you stay, especially in that calling. I hope that your mental health is good! 4/4
@the_slimmy @shelflessbishop As I was in a position to ask members about their honesty for Temple recommends, I was suddenly confronted with a church whose leadership had specifically done dishonest things by hiding damning information. I quickly learned that I could not longer remain. 3/4
@the_slimmy @shelflessbishop Only because you only accept facts that support your opinion and refuse any fact that discredits it. That definition is spot on for socialism, and while the church isn’t a declared government in the sense of politics, it effectively acts the same way. Consecration = Socialism
@ThoughtfulSaint You’re so right! It’s called blind-faith allegiance. It’s what makes the majority of “saints” follow Donald Trump, Ron Disantis, and other pro-fascists.
@Avengangelgrace @Exmo_Lex I appreciate that you think you understand me. It’s one of the faults of humanity. I struggle with thinking the same way. I am no longer going to allow other people to hold me hostage to their interpretations of things. If your path works for you, I’m happy for you.
@Avengangelgrace @Exmo_Lex Did she put herself into that place, or was she placed there by a church that claims truth when doing so many things that demonstrate the opposite? I argue from my own experience, that truth helps us climb out of the box we’re put in by the church. It’s not so easy to escape!
@gordorooster@MATTfnOLSEN@sltrib Requiring love and support vocally happens because of the agenda of others to silence voices. Everyone has an agenda, stop gaslighting those whose agenda is different than yours.
@FabioBYU @NephiteHorse 47 and the bishop of a ward , here! OMG! I was shook by almost all of it. Completely oblivious and what’s worse, I’m an historian and history teacher. It’s always rubbed me wrong how my historical background of analysis and critical thinking never could be used in my faith. Ugh!
@imsterfry @FabioBYU Brings peace and happiness!?!? You mistake sincere peace happiness with a faux peace and a faux happiness. How can you say it’s true peace when it’s constructed on a foundation of lies and deceptions. I challenge you to read the church’s gospel topics essays AND footnotes.
@UtahSnyder @hawkgrrrl@shelflessbishop How is it damaging to society? If people love each other, what’s the problem? There are Heterosexual people who abuse others, be it a spouse or children or people in general. How does their sexual orientation matter? Truth is, it doesn’t. It doesn’t affect anyone else at all.
@shelflessbishop The fact that DNA reveals no connection whatsoever of any indigenous people to Israel. A close second… horses. There is no evidence of horses in the time period we’re talking.
@CoachLevi4 @FabioBYU @jgoldensshadow He was a living “prophet” when he said it, so what does that mean? It means he wasn’t a prophet at all, but a man acting like one to a group of followers who believed he was. He was not connected to God. We must not forget that just because we are not proximate to his time.
@Justin12393LEE@MaryLTrump The mere fact that people like you can use your popularity to advance such lies is ridiculous! I’m sure you’re right about the Clintons and Bidens. People don’t advance in politics without dirt, but to blatantly state Trump did nothing! WOW!
