Ex-Mormon Social Media Research

Post by _hazbilly3 »

Hello all! I obtained permission from Dr. Shades to post this.

I am completing my undergraduate study at Weber State University and am doing a research project on how ex-Mormons use social media to cope and find new group identity after Mormonism. Ex-Mormons are largely ignored, so I am hoping this project will shed light on how those currently transitioning out or those who will transition can better cope with the difficulties. If you kind souls would be willing, could you take 15 minutes and tell a little bit about your transition out of Mormonism and how social media helps you? The survey can be found at this link: http://studentvoice.com/wsu/podcastsandoutcasts. Confidentiality is guaranteed and I promise to post about the results when this research project is finished up.

This research is NOT IN ANY WAY affiliated with the LDS Church.

See up at the top there, where it says "Mormon Discussions" and then says "Liar!" That's what I think about b.s. Get a life. I mean an honest life.

excerpt from wikipedia page:
the subtitle "Athletics" is BEFORE "Academics"
sorted by importance, ehm...


some important data about that university (from https://www.google.hu/search?hl=en&as_q ... as_rights=):

Six months after its publication Soviet authorities banned the book and attempted to remove it from libraries and bookshops.

The early church was full of ex-Campbellites. Faithless quitters. :lol:
