You mean beyond granting fellowship to a convicted sex offender who was actively in sex offender treatment for crimes against children? Bishop James Ely of the South Tacoma Stake befriended O’Connor and worked to get him released from sex offender treatment.

The current PRophet is wrong. When is it ok to obey him? If he really meant racism is a sin, HE would repent of it, by first admitting the church he runs is still racist and he’d edit out the 19th C racist myths that were mistaken for the word of God. But because he doesn’t really care about the feelings of non-white people, he proudly publishes and distributes those racist myths every day.

Right, they just sweep it all under the rug and hope nobody notices that they are gaslighting the world by demanding ‘others’ repent of THEIR racism, without ever admitting any racism exists currently in Mormon scriptures or teachings, when it’s right there in black and white and clearly unavoidable. No wonder people hate Mormons more than Muslims or Atheists, they can see right through

Good. My kids are waaaaay better off w/o MORmONism. They’re way too cool for that contrived nonsense anyways. I do have one son who stayed in the church when I left, mainly to support his need for some spiritual tradition. MORmONism had been it for my family for most of its written history.
