This lack of service may have existed before and after World War II, but during that conflict many of my relatives fought and some died in Europe and the Pacific. They were all young Mormon men from small towns outside of Salt Lake City.

The U.S. Constitution is heaven blessed now... But ask Brigham Young what he thought of the US Constitution and U.S. government leaders.

That is the correct word, members are ignorant regarding Mormon history and doctrine. They have no idea how many wives Smith had because most never knew he had more than one. When they learn that he did, they don't want to know any details because it contradicts everything they have been taught. TSCC keeps members ignorant as long as possible... Until now. Today they are teaching as much

Mormon's equate any behavior they preach against such as drinking alcohol or looking at pornography as an addiction. Masturbate? You're addicted. Some a cigar on the golf course? You're addicted. Eat like a pig and weigh twice your normal body weight? No problem. Marie Osmond will fix your fat ass right up. Mormon leaders and true believing members are extremists. (Think Muslims...)

Watching sports news on the Baylor Football story Title IX keeps being brought up. That's a reference that keeps coming up in the BYU rape culture reporting. Anyone think this Baylor story will keep the BYU story going? Were there any allegations against BYU athletes?

Africa gives TBM's something to do. Missions. Service Missions. Humanitarian aid. Media content. It's where Christians are going to make a difference. Unfortunately, the African continent is a financial drain on LDS, Inc. This means future leaders will most likely cut back and serious money will be pulled from Africa.

He's a joke. The most interesting point of this whole matter is what Holland thinks... My bet, he's most PISSED that some little college shit recorded him and posted it up on the Internet. Holland believes exactly what he said and LOVES the fact that the majority of his audience applauded his bullshit talk. TBM's have deified Holland and the rest of those suits. The modern Mormon church and

In Mormonism, the majority of Eagle Scouts are manufactured and worth very little. They are a right of passage and a resume builder to work at McDonalds, or perhaps something else. The fact is Mormon Scouting is so watered down there is no comparison to actual Scouting. A Mormon Eagle Scout means very little.

My partner left our business for two years to build another company. During that time, we paid him his full salary and benefits. There are so many ways to compensate people who are key men and women in business. If the profits are there, you can pay people who are not even present for two years. I know. I did it. This LDS guy is not letting his families status of living drop by even 1%. He's

Not surprised that LDS, Inc. is taking a neutral position. They are getting their asses handed to them each month in the public arena and they care about that most. The real question is why did they say anything. Just shut the fuck up and stay out of trouble assholes.

A saying came to mind as I sat down to check replies to my original post: "Sincerity is no test of the truth." Jim Rohn I credit Jim because he first said it to me. Of course, people can be sincerely wrong. Every TBM who is truly kind and loving and non-judgemental is, in my opinion, sincere, but wrong.

I had an opportunity to speak to a current LDS patriarch. After listening to my "Mormon Story, " he was very kind and made no excuses for my poor experiences, or Mormon history, or Mormon doctrine. He just stated that every time he gives a blessing that he is witness to a "miracle, and that's all that matters. He told me there was no middle ground. Mormonism is all true or an

What a suck up by the Mormon church. I expect the LGBT crowd to accept it and keep up the fight. Mormon leaders and members will say "you got your street, what more do you people want?"
