This is my first post here. I resigned from TSCC back in February of 2014 after dropping out of BYU in Provo. After that, I escaped an emotionally abusive marriage. I am transgender, a man, but TSCC will always see me as female. I left mainly because I found out LGBT people don't choose to be LGBT. It blew my mind and changed EVERYTHING. I lost my bio family after coming out, but was adopted by a wonderful family of half-atheists/half-mormon LGBT activists. Even though it's been years and I don't want to be an angry person, I am still furious. I avoid churchy stuff as much as possible, but every so often, I have to hear about yet another person I know committing suicide here in Utah. I just went to a friend's funeral a couple months ago that was a suicide. It makes me SO angry. I am so tired of all the needless death. I blame TSCC and the GA for these deaths. I think they don't give a hoot about LGBT people, as evidenced by the exclusion policy and only do token things to try and look good for the membership. How am I supposed to let go and move on with my life when they don't care about our lives and we keep dying?
