Mormons don't respect boundaries.
Who does your sister think she is, telling you what to write and say? Mormons are arrogant in wanting to take away our rights.
Do you tell her to not talk or write trash about YOU, or about your favorite political candidate? Your sister and her cult are constantly trashing apostates and intellectuals (that's YOU), and accusing others of "following Satan", and teaching in their meetings that all other churches are false. Those are harsh accusations--yet you are not threateneing to withdraw your brotherly love from your sister because of that garbage. Not yet, anyway.
This is not "love" that your sister has for you. You already know that Mormons don't believe in unconditional love; in fact, Nelson preaches against it.
Ah, there are tough decisions we ex-Mormons have to make: keeping-the-peace vs personal integrity, acceptance (it ain't love) vs exercising your human rights, supporting lies vs following the truth, etc. It's your sister's way vs the highway.
These are choices we shouldn't ever have to make!
You are clever enough to find your way through this labyrinth of lies, brainwashing, threats and manipulations, that the cult has created in your life.
RFM is here to help us all navigate these stormy waters that are intentionally stirred up by the cult. Mormons want power! They want attention! They want publicity in the headlines! They want money! We know where Satan's path really leads, and we must not be afraid to stand true to our convictions.
I live true to myself, and have still been walking on eggshells around the Mormons in my life. It's a balancing act. My experience has been that nothing really placates the Mormons, except perhaps to go crawling back to the cult. I have tried to maintain relationships with Mormons, but I will always be the apostate divorced working woman. Despite all my efforts, these past 9 years, I ended up losing all of my Mormon former fake friends, anyway. Most stopped speaking to me immediatly, when I resigned. Examine your relationship with your sister, because maybe it isn't worth the effort. When I'm honest with myself, I'm rrelieved to have these haters out of my life, though their smear campaign against apostates will continue, and I'll always take a stand against that.
I went to a grandchild's baptism, and I dressed nice, was pleasant, and behaved very well, but my daughter accused me of "frowning." I was still not good enough; I didn't have the right smile. My TBM family members have forbidden me to talk about the Mormon church or Mormons or religion at all, around them and the grandchildren. So, shall I demand that they don't talk about non-Mormons, around me? LOL. Just shut up about 99% of the human race, you cult-members, because you are trampling on MY world!
I appreciate you, Shrodlingerscat. Stay strong.
