Fast and Testimony Meetings: Are They On The Chopping Block?

Post by _Everybody Wang Chung »

This is from a testimony meeting in Virginia, where two women got up and testified that some pedophile had molested their children and that the leaders had been covering for him. Eventually, the congregation started singing 'I Believe in Christ" to drown her out and a zealous man in a suit desperately tried to grab one lady's cellphone who was recording the scene. The bishop was pretty level-headed, I think. Very cringy scene:

Seems like the ward members weren't interested in listening to this kind of testimony, which is predictable, but what is the ramification of a group sticking their head in the sand when someone is shining the light on the bad apples that everyone should be aware of? Does the matter of children being molested warrant a disruption of a testimony meeting?

If this kind of thing continues to happen, how long before there's no more open mic on fast-and-testimony Sundays?

New Name Noah is exposing the CULT.

I'd like to see the Mormon church hacked to pieces and butchered.

Of course they believe in Mormon bastard jebus. After all he's/she/s the one who started the whole Horny Holy Joe pedophile process. So yeah, all the commodities would sing. Though one would think it would be Hail to the Pedophile Profit Prophet
Revelation 2:17 . . give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. Thank Google GOD for her son eBay, you can now have life eternal with laser engraving. . oh, and a seer stone and save 10% of your life's earning as a bonus. See you in Mormon man god Heaven Bitches!!. Bring on the Virgins

Truthfully, though, does anybody actually know the age of little Mary when Heavenly Father came down from heaven (according to Brigham Young) and did God knows what to her? I mean really, how old was Mary? What a horrible thing for a Father to do to his own daughter!

Mormon concepts and statements about Heavenly Father being with Mary makes me want to bulldoze Brigham's monuments. What a horrible man he was. Those who followed him were horrible too. Those who defend him today are horrible. Disgusting Mormons.

Jesus, this church is so dead. The members are doing the right thing and burning it to the ground. Burn that damned mess down.

Nothing like singing Jesus Christ lives as a mother pours her heart out about her children getting molested in a highly preventable situation.
