I drink tea
I drink
I like gay people
And I was born not only in the covenant, but with "blood of the prophets" in my veins and I've turned my white backside on "The Truth"

So basically she doesn't care what you do, but you just can't resign?

I love it!

Yes, when faced with leaving me or just loving me, she chose the latter - not the Latter-day Saints.

When I was a child, I thought God was the sun in the sky. When I reached the temple and learned the sign and token of "The Son" realized how far from my innocent, simple and sweet belief I had corrupted myself for the sake of family, friends and community.

I realized that Mormonism was as artificial as Lemon Flav-R-Aid was to Lemon aid. It still took me decades to tell myself and others (like my wife and kids) that I was finished.

No more. It was finally over. The charade I called a testimony was just a contrivance I was tired of propping up with nothing but sheer will.

There is only one thing that will keep you out of the CK. That is writing your tithing check.

Everything else can be and is, lied about.

I'm not interested in reproducing here on earth, let alone for eternity in the afterlife.
I see nothing wrong with being gay.
I have premarital sex (gasp!)
I swear quite often, even around my mormon family...
and worst of all, I don't pay tithing or worship the old men in Salt Lake.

One thing-
You realize for all those times you said," The Church is true" to help convince everyone especially you of its validity. You now know it is not true and don't have to say that to any congregation because your not trying convince others or yourself it is just something you know to be true.

I'm gay
I CHOOSE to allow my gayness to lead me into doing gay things
I drink
I used to smoke, and still do from time to time
I've been to Burning Man ten times
I run around naked whenever possible
I've slept with more women than I actually counted
One of those women was a porn star (that, obviously, happened at Burning Man)
I corrupt the innocent on a regular basis
I openly mock the concept of the CK
I still think those letters stand for Calvin Kline
I masturbate daily. Sometimes multiple times.
I can't make it through my day without coffee
I've never tithed a penny of my money to any church
I make art that is not faith promoting. It's usually dirty thought provoking and/or disturbing
I watch porn, but only for amusement. The girls in porn are gross and do nothing for me sexually, but it's fun to gather friends, pop popcorn, and sit around laughing at terrible porn together
I own the soundtrack to Book of Mormon: The Musical

ha ha ha ha!

What is burning man?

Ok i have NEVER met a cool gay chic. Always had a chip on their shoulder if you ask me.

So I am asking you questions that I always wanted to ask, but couldn't cause some girl was going to try get up in my grill and you know I will not be having that!

Just like questions I always wanted to ask a black person but couldn't cause then it might come across as racist.

Oh wait I am black...u get the point!

No worries. I don't like most gay chicks either, so I fully understand. Must be how I wound up falling for a mostly straight Mormon girl.

Burning Man is a week long counter-culture/art festival in the middle of the desert. You may just want to google it. Lots of nakedness, lots of drinking, lots of people on drugs, and tons of super amazing art. My only complaint is the overabundance of techno music out there. I hate techno.

Some of the art out there is very sexually explicit, and some is incredibly blasphemous. The bible thumpers have been calling it Satanic for decades. One crazy Christian guy went out there and told everyone it was Satan's Birthday Party. I feel bad, cause I've been going for ten years and I never even got Satan a gift.

Hmmmmmmm...let's see -

- I have never smoked anything
- I have never had an alcoholic beverage
- I have never done any drugs

BUT.............

- I had a nympho girlfriend at BYU and we banged like a screen door in a hurricane every night of my freshman year.
- I walked out of the MTC and off my mission after five weeks and called the MTC Prez and a G.A. "S.O.B.'s" on my way out.
- I didn't give my home ward Bishop back the $500 he gave me as a "gift" from the ward before leaving on my mission. I bought a motorcycle with the money instead.
- I am doing everything I can to steer my kids out of the church.
- I have sex often with or without a partner.
- I love porn and have a girlfriend who loves it as well. In fact, for three years she bought us tickets to the annual porn convention in Las Vegas and I did partake.
- Although I am middle-aged now, I am looking forward to being a dirty OLD man.
- I do a lot of great things in the community, especially for special needs children and young adults. I am a good, caring person and do FAR MORE service than my TBM friends. If that is not good enough for some "God", then FUCK HIM...I wouldn't want to be with him anyways.
