LDS leaders aren't increasing the membership -- BOO!!!!

LDS church is following the footsteps of Fundamentalist Church and soon, no one will go to church and the prophet will make announcements from his condo at Temple Square.

All the Anti-Mormon literature turned out to be the true history. And, the people aren't nice! Good Golly! It's nice to be important but more important to be nice bitches. In other words, no can do!

Ding Ding Ding!!! Alcoholic parent/a child raised in TOTALLY dysfunctional family. Mormon Church preached NO drinking, NO smoking, No drugs. No brainer!! Where do I sign up? I would guess many of the members might be bruised, scarred, battered, and tormented souls looking for a safe refuge. It doesn't mean you make great decisions when you need help or guidance in a crapola home

I'm very proud to say I left the Mormon Church. And, I moved out of Utah. I don't belong to any religion. I feel lighter, happier, smarter, stronger, bolder, prettier :) *People ask why I left? My sheepish response: "I was in a cult."

Freakish grin on Henry B. Eyring's face during the prayer. Even more freakish grin on Dallin H. Oaks face knowing he stole Uchtdorf's seat.

Your post hit home with me. I believed as a convert the leaders were God's Spoke Person(s). End of story. I would do anything because my leaders were without question, Godly people, near perfect and chosen. "Unsuspecting" and gullible best describe myself and so many others who believed everything we were told. However, I was 17 yrs. old when I joined. Young & dum

A big shout out to the person who leaked this story. You deserve a medal! Even with the audio admission of guilt by Bishop, it is never enough evidence to reprimand the inspired leaders at the top. Brilliant. Speaking as a woman, this might keep a few of us from ever stepping foot inside your church. I dare say, this could be a huge PR nightmare. Oh, it already is a huge PR nigh

I would never have gone to BYU. A small junior college from Po-dunk USA would've been better! No one wants to employ someone from a radical cult and I know this is what mainstream America thinks of the school. I can hear the eye-rolling.

"Doubt your doubts" ******************* Best LDS quote ever! Once you listen to the still small voice and doubt everything, question everything, you will find the answers. YOU have all the answers within and always have Dorothy.

Stay away from the Sunset area near Sand Hollow Aquatic Center. Some friends of ours moved into the area and while moving, one of the neighbors proceeded to break into their garage and stole appliances and electronics. They reported the crime and it was the family across the street, a single Mother with a son (who had a drug problem) There's a lot of poverty in St. George, wages are low and

This is the role model for many LDS women, Sheri Dew. Smart, un-married, opinionated, pragmatic, successful. Get her a seat with the upper crust making decisions on Church policy and you might gain some new followers from the LGBTQ community.

Perhaps you need to speak to the Bishop, ask him for money. Repeat this, "I need money" every week. You will fall by the wayside and those emails will end.

I was your mother. A real live beast when my daughter didn't want to live the LDS standards. There's only one word to describe the way I behaved: Inhumane. My daughter responded to me in the most amazing, miraculous way -- she told me "I love you Mom, you're the best Mom in the whole wide world." She said this daily. OMG! She used reverse psychology on me! It worked! All

I really enjoyed your audio at your "Court of Love". You clearly know what you're talking about and I can see why there's a new directive to "disconnect". You know too much! Knowing true doctrine will cause anxiety amongst the members to run as fast as they can away from those who are armed in truth from TSCC own archives. Can I be your Facebook friend?

You hear so many LDS Ward Members say: "The main reason the numbers are so few in our Ward is due to the fact property values are so high." "People just can't afford to live in _____ (fill in the blank)." I don't believe it. So, the wealthy people of the world are the only ones who can live and attend LDS Church in upper class neighborhoods? Not true. Not every War

I love the idea of your backyard garden for church. For me, Nature is my religion and the place I go to find solace and answers. Healing goes on here. The trees, birds, wildlife speak to me. Just spend 30 min. a week (to begin) outside and I can promise your soul will testify the truthfulness of Mother Earth and her ability to restore your being. All religions try to hook you into

I knew it! "Disconnect" is just another word for Discriminate, Intolerance, Unfairness and Exclusion. TSCC is on the right path to excluding just about everyone in their path, and will become the Church of Bigots and Isolationists. So, I rather like the way the leadership is ruling over the members and find it the surest way to limit growth outside of Utah and further the des

As the child of a "collector", I now have this desire to un-clutter my life and live detached. I don't want things because things collect dust. All the valuable items my parent collected over a lifetime will inevitably go to charity or worse, end up in the landfill. There's a feeling of emptiness with each item as it means very little. Why couldn't my parent spend more time

You're speaking for thousands of members in TSCC who shake when they speak the truth and it's not easy. You're not alone. Thank you! In theory, it should be the best therapy on Earth to speak the truth and rid yourself of the cockamamie doctrine. In practice, it's gut wrenching. You're on your way out and your Father knows it. Be careful to make sure he knows you love him and al
