Got problems with your testimony? Think of The Pioneers™ Can't pay tithing? Think of The Pioneers™ Having a hard time with your calling? Think of The Pioneers™ Guilty for not fulfilling home/visiting teaching in a few weeks? Think of The Pioneers™ Not living up to LDS standards? Think of The Pioneers™ You got it bad? Think of The Pioneers™
Millions of Jews, gypsies etc died at the hands of the Nazi's. You don't hear about May 8th day, the date Nazi Germany surrendered in 1945.
It's a shame what happened to some of the Pioneers. In the end, they chose to go to the Salt Lake Valley by their own free will.
Millions of people during WWII did not have that choice.
And that's why I didn't go to my ward with my kids today so we wouldn't have to hear all that shit. We went instead to a nondenominational church that spoke about no one but Christ Himself and Heavenly Father. Ironically, during the sermon, the preacher talked about "the plan of salvation." I just smiled at that one. :-)
no matter what you think you might have done for the (POS) MORmON church, there is always some dumb ass MORmON Pioneer or *prophet* that has done so much that your contribution isnt worth mentioning.
like you said Happy (you are not worth much compared to the) Pioneers day.
Thank you for bringing this up! I have been getting barraged with email from mom implying that I am a traitor to the brave pioneers who risked their lives for me so I could be in TSCC. Arrrgh!
Baura, you made me laugh out loud. You win hero of the day with that comeback. I am definitely stealing it for my collection of snappy comebacks. Sending you massive cyber-admiration!!!
