Don't these goddamn fucking Mormons know that what they're doing is evil & atrocious? No, they fucking don't.

I wish him happiness but doubt he's on a course to obtain it.

when he realizes what he gave up for this experience.

He thinks he has been missing something. It is really sad.

I'm really interested in hearing what others have to say.

This is his post since you are not on Facebook.Basically many members respond by saying well done:

'Hi Brothers and Sisters! I am not sure if you all remember me or not, but I was the one who has been in a gay relationship for almost 20 years and the Spirit had been telling me it was time to move so I could go to the Temple and receive my endowments. I listened. I found a place and will be moving on the 5th of July! I felt so much better after making the decision and finding the place. I actually felt the Spirit return. NOW< I have an even better testimony of listening to the Spirit! Thank you all for your prayers and support. I also need to say thanks for my Ward family for their amazing support also'!

The guy's trying to figure himself out. I believe that having your temple endowments makes a poor substitute for real life love and companionship. But I can only guess that his relationship wasn't fulfilling enough for him to even consider that moving out, going through some kind of repentance process and going through the temple is what will bring true happiness. He's likely in for a big let down.

When I left the church a number of family said that I had never had a testimony to begin with.
Maybe he was never that to begin with? Just going along with it for the sake of family and community...

J/K I suspect a faith promoting story.

I doubt it'll last. Once you've tasted the "forbidden fruit" going back has to be nearly impossible.

Things must have gotten really bad with his partner or something to even CONSIDER this... :(

So he wants to go to the temple and get his endowment ordinance? Geez. Why doesn't he study it out first? Go to YouTube and watch the endowment? Read the text on line? Read the pre-1990 version? Read Tom Phillips' Second Anointing Experience?

Learn, learn, learn kid. Do your homework first. You'll never be called forth and anointed a king (the SA) unless you kick-out the gayness, marry a gal, excel in leadership, move up the Priesthood ladder of leadership importance, and maybe get someone to nominate you for the ordinance.

Are you really going to try and do all that? Are you going to convert to being straight and marry just for that trip into Mormon hell? Is it worth it? Oh BTW, what happens when at some point in that journey you read the CES Letter, or study MormonThink and realize it's all a fraud? The temple too? And realize TSCC just wanted your money all along so that they can give you a bogus qualifying ticket into their afterlife party?

Wake up. Snap out of it!

This too shall pass.

It's sad. I imagine this guy has been living with guilt for the last 20 years and the only peace he could find was "choosing the right" :(

Those people are so sickening. They have no idea what it is like to be anything other than their cookie-cutter mold.

Either that, or it's all made up. Like Mormonism.

His online stuff seems sincere about returning to TSCC. This partner business? I dunno. Read some of his notes, and your eyes will bleed. He might have a terminal disease, but now he's lived longer than he was told he would. All signs point to signs the church is true.

So, he's going to continue living in sin until July 5th? ;)

Boy, he's going to be sooooooo disappointed with the endowment.

His relationship must suck. I would NEVER trade in my beautiful wife for a church.
