Re: LDS Mike Grunig reinstated after bullying and gun pointi
I hope they sue the city and get something fair for their trouble. It's utterly outrageous that a person who lacked the impulse control to stop themselves from pulling a gun out in in the workplace and pointing it at three people is still employed, and in a leadership position. That's just not the k...

Re: Bombshell Mormonleaks Exposes Sexual Abuse Cover-Up
I think there may be grey area with this case. Since this is prior to his mission, he may still not have reached the age of majority. In that case you have a 17 and a 15 year old sexting. Since they would both be minors, what are you going to do? In the second case, he's obviously at least 18, mean...

Re: BYU Changing Married Alumnae Names
I very much appreciated this post! I did not change my name when I married, and it was a trial for my in-laws and members, and record-keeping in every ward we attended. Twice after we moved, a ward clerk took it upon himself to 'correct' my name on church records. One stubbornly refused to fix his m...

Re: Have you officially resigned from the LDS church?
Aoife - Resigned I think 13 years ago. I would have done it earlier, but I was waiting and hoping for my husband to come around and leave with me (he did/we did). I was an active non-believer for about 3 years. Basically, a friend at work told me rather bluntly that he thought that my belief in the ...

Re: Trump finally found someone to sing at the inauguration!
I belong to a large-ish grassroots group on Facebook that shares ideas for progressive political action. It doesn't have anything to do with Mormonism, generally. Today someone posted numbers for LDS public affairs and encouraged folks to call and express disappointment. In the thread, they also rec...

Re: Why do members leave the Church?
Guest Post by Nathan McCluskey. What follows is an extract from a 15 minute sacrament talk Nathan was asked to give as the Ward Mission Leader on the topic of “Reactivation and Rescuing.” m I would like to read out some of their responses in the hope that we all recognise just how different the rea...

Re: Leaked videos of meetings with the Q15
So I get the importance of making sure you're up on what's going on in the world, but who needs to be spoon-fed current events like this? This isn't an intelligence briefing of top-secret information. The gentleman presenting clearly has no special insight beyond what the rest of us also get from re...

Re: Leaked videos of meetings with the Q15
I can't stop watching! It has been ages since I believed the church was led by any kind of inspiration, divine or otherwise. But given the wealth and holdings of the church, I've always assumed there was something competent and sophisticated going on at the top. Maybe the sophistication is in the mi...

Re: Arkansas woman dies in Oklahoma recreating Mormon trek
But, multiple people having heat-related health issues, especially those severe enough to cause loss-of-consciousness, means the conditions are fundamentally unsafe. That right there is the issue. Hopefully the Oklahoma paramedics see this as an issue that is preventable and can take some steps to ...
