LOL. Thank you all for putting a smile on my face. The great thing about missing another General Conference is knowing I missed absolutely nothing but repetitive.........non-sense. Obey, fear, God is not within you...blah blah. I think I will watch The Life Of Brian.

Being together with Family and Friends is what it's all about. Why Mormondum continues to exclude is a very bad corporate decision that literally turns thousands away. A true sign of a Cult.

How my Mom and Sisters continue to be TBM's and ignore all of this is beyond me. I mean, is there really any difference in Warren Jeff's and early Mormondum? The brain washing, guilt, fear,power trip....... is the same. Thank God for her courage to stand up and take a stand with her Sister. LDS and FLDS is one and the same in so many way's and Hinkley lies about it.

Years ago I actually got my Brother in to the Temple for a Wedding/Sealing in the Family. I simply handed my card back to him after I used it. Families are forever! LOL
Forum: Recovery Board

Even though I denied my thoughts and feelings, my first step into the Temple as a youth and seeing Oxen holding up a Baptism Pool and then performing baptisms for people who were dead. Creepy! Making out with the girls on the bus ride was much more fun.

Zero! The Power is Within and surely not Without. Happiness/Freedom 100% Mormondum/BYU Football 0%! LOL

No worries my friend. Watched my Ex Father in law baptize my Daughter many years ago. I gave her my support/love by being there. Today she like me she has nothing to do with Mormondum and will be getting married, like my oldest Daughter, outside of anything church related, to a Non-Mormon. Living by example and being happy outside of the Cult is the best thing you can do for your children. M

BYU Football has be Tankin it for a long time. The holier then thou attitude/rules has sent the program spiraling like church membership. Go Utah, go Boise St.

No better way to control young men and women by getting them out on Missions. Can't wait til they knock on my door. In my home they will find refuge, peace, and food for the Soul.

Let the walls come tumbling down. So happy my Daughters have chosen like to me to turn and run from the stupidity of Mormonism. Enjoyed one wedding last year and have another to enjoy next year. Great Son in Laws to say the least. It is so obvious that Mormondum is about $$$$ and control and will try to destroy everything in it's path to have it.

Called to 24 months. Chopped to 18, I stayed out an extra month as a Z.L. in Indiana at MP's request. I needed all the extra credit I could get for my grade. LOL
Forum: Recovery Board

Very destructive to me in my youth, always trying to stop or get out of my mind, and yet it provided stress relief from the constant pressures and nonsense being put on me by Mormondum. What a dichotomy to say the least. Satin has his hold on me and I was evil. I see now that Church was evil/harmful in it's practice/teachings and I was a normal young man.

I am learning the hard way to say very little and not contend. I was once so passionate for it and now I am so passionately against it. Wither it be missionaries or family,I like the answers above of keeping it short and expressing my happiness. Easier said then done. Smile

Take him to The Temple of Victoria Secrets and let him buy you sexy panties. Leaving the craziness of Mormonism/Temple's was the best choice I ever made. Good luck!

For me it was deprogramming from the Mormon God of punishment and journeying to the Loving God outside of the Walls of Fear,Guilt, and Expectation. Realization that I was much more then what any organization could label me. Hello Fear Good Bye Fear became my Motto!

Thank you for sharing or journey. The Road Less Traveled played a big impact on me and I enjoy life not conforming to any particular religion. Article of Faith number 11 seems to be forgotten with many.

Why have a movie at all? Why have actors? Put a charismatic speaker in a white robe with Long Gray Hair in front of a room and have it read from Golden Plates. Better then that, pull people out of the congregation and let them play the parts reading from prompt o cards?! Charge $5 for Soda and $5 for Popcorn. Just sayin
