I was just curious if anyone was aware of there ever being a large rally or demonstration, in opposition to the LDS church in Utah, at any point in the past, that you know of?? — like any large public displays that really rocked their insular boat or shook up the status quo, & really got their attention?
The crimes suffered & transgressions endured by society as a result of this corrupt institution are mind boggling; especially to anyone not indoctrinated in the culture & looking at it from the outside (& especially in this day & age!)
As the church declines & struggles in the coming decades, I wish there could be some kind of bold, in-your-face, reoccurring gathering or celebration — or maybe an annual ‘ex-Mormon’ party or festival of unity, inclusion,& appreciation - welcoming scrutiny of the LDS church, encouraging questions, & that would be open to anyone slighted by the church - or wanting to challenge the social norms.
Perhaps each one could have an ever-changing theme to focus attention on? Take your pick from any number of particular issues or problems people have with the church, which would maybe force some aspect of the church to face up to it’s hypocrisy & culpability, whether that’s through bad publicity or the celebrant’s stated goals.
I know this sounds quixotic & dreamy - but I just wish there was some way to hasten the demise of it &/or expose it for the dangerous & shady fraud it really is.
