I am just wondering, because I got a sickeningly sweet call yesterday from an LDS member that I used to call my friend, until I heard from many sources that she was slandering me and saying things that were untrue. She hasn't called in years, but yesterday she left a message on my answering machine, saying she missed me so much and do I remember the good times we shared? Blah, blah, blah. I am

Wow...Satan is in jail? Does anyone know why? Just curious. I agree- he was a terrific Satan!

I am so very sorry for your incredible loss. You will always carry your dear son in your heart, and he will always be with you. You will live your life again; but it does take a lot of time. My only sister took her own life, too. It will be 17 years (I think) on July 29. My parents were never the same, and forgive me if I am being forward, but I'd like to tell you to grieve in the way you ne

Yes, very much so! I grew up listening to them, and I visited my old home grounds 2 weeks ago, and one of the first things I heard sitting in the old Catholic church was church bells from 2 local churches, vying for attention! It was absolutely beautiful and filled me with a sense of peace.

Oh sweetie, just leave and start to feel the REAL joy! We were converts and we left and have never looked back. So much makes sense to use now as to how fooled we were. You owe them NOTHING.

My best friend is still active in LDS. She completely supported me leaving, and we continue to respect each other- no pressure to be any different on either side. Yay! It CAN be done! Anyway, I digress....when her son was little she'd ask him: "M.....! Are you playing with your penis?" One time he answered her with a smile (he was about 4) and said "Not today!" She just

My Catholic parents have "Together Forever" on their headstone. I have always loved that, and now that I am out of the Morgue, I love it even more. LDS has no monopoly on anything in my opinion.

My heart goes out to them. My sister committed suicide, and though I don't agree with Rick Warren, my heart is with all who loved that young man.

I absolutely agree. I didn't get furious this morning, but as I was sipping my much loved coffee, I told my husband "Damn...I went without this for 12 years to be obedient? Why the hell would God want me to not have coffee?" We have just been out for a little over a year, and what was vague and cloudy before is so clear now.

Well before we joined TSCC as converts in our 40's, our family would take day trips north for fun, and we all couldn't wait to see whether 'Surrender Dorothy' was back painted on again! We were always disappointed when it was removed, lol.

Yes, I did. I intently watched the whole segment, and like you, I kept thinking LDS...LDS...LDS... Same crazy control issues, and all about the money. When I heard about Thetans, it occurred to me that some (most?) LDS doctrine made me very uncomfortable. Just starting this 2013 out of the church is a bonus.

I started cutting mine in half a few months ago because if I took a whole one and stayed up at all, I'd wake up in the morning with an entire pack of cookies gone, or a wedge of Jarlsberg missing! So yeah, I cut mine in half.

I got in late on this, but I am so sorry for your loss anyway. Losing a parent is really rough. Hugs and kind thoughts and vibes being sent to you.

Living authentically became my mantra a couple of years ago. I started going to counseling, and it became very obvious that the church and my path to authenticity were on a collision course. Something had to go; the church did. I couldn't stomach another mindless activity, another weepy testimony or another GA spouting something that felt wrong in my soul and gut. Thanks for the thread!

Love it...love it! I couldn't agree more. In the 9 months I have been out of the church, coffee is the biggest joy so far; that and the right to have my own life for a change!
