The lack of COVID meetings is what allowed me to stop attending church. I might still be going if the leaders had acted quickly to meet spiritual needs, but they did not act quickly. I don't know what took so long. It seemed like they had to get 15 guys who are used to getting their way to all agre...

Why does it feel like this is just another episode of "how can we fool them today?" The fact that "...the population has become too aware of the missionary uniform which allows people to consciously avoid the missionaries" speaks volumes. When the general public actively and immediately goes into 'a...

Shirley you jest. Breed'em Young would never do that.

My kids took me out to eat for my birthday. We went to a Korean BBQ.

Happy Birthday!!


Some hard seltzer and hitting some cannabis.

RR, so happy for you and for her. I'm going through the same thing right now with my wife. She's just a little farther along now. Your wife will process and progress at her pace as she is ready. I have to quietly remind myself of that each time my wife shares a little of her thoughts with me. Mostly...

He knew it would hurt you, and he did it anyway and lied about it. Yes, it is a betrayal. He put the church and what the church wants ahead of you, as if he is married to the church and not you. And, no, it’s not like him cheating on you with another woman, but it IS like him cheating on you. At le...

Fascinating thread.

Hi, Hermey!

I'm going to send you a text. I'd love to get together this week and catch up.

This thread and your holotropic breathwork thread are fascinating to me.

I'm on the 0% tithing plan. Great plan. Highly recommend.

Can confirm. Best plan ever!

Fascinating thread.

My wife and I watched it when it came out. Out of all the things that I've tried sharing with her over the last 11 years, this one had the biggest impact. She really identified with the mom. My wife is going down the rabbit hole and hasn't attended since the start of Covid. The missionaries dropped ...

Same as the Utah bill. They just want to keep the gays out of the temple, not from housing. Its...confusing. That bill was utter horsesh*t. They created a new law and quietly carved out an exemption in that law for themselves to continue to discriminate. :evil: But...but....religious liberty! 🙄🙄 Ye...

huh? wasn't expecting that? He just pointed out where church members helped protect LGBT right? I wonder what the real story is. It's hard for me the believe what he is saying. Same as the Utah bill. They just want to keep the gays out of the temple, not from housing. Its...confusing. That bill was...

Hermey’s here too? Welcome to Church boys… :lol: Good to be here! I thought I'd check out the latest NOMference updates and see how everyone is doing as I've been skimming through some of the posts from over the last month. It's been good to catch up on whats happening/happened with folks. Both hig...

I was quite touched by how Spencer Cox (who I have generally considered to be lacking anything resembling a spine) showed sincere compassion for the transgender kids caught in the latest conservative kerfuffle. It's because he actually, surprise!, met them. All FOUR of them. I hope I never hear a s...

I can't wait. Seriously. Dallin Hoaks as profit will just continue to help with departures. The more cray cray the better.

Absolutely.

I can relate to "torturous sleepless nights".

Oh man, I feel you. The medication I take for my insomnia literally also prevents me from sleeping (I wish I was kidding). Also, my husband has a CPAP and still snores. It feels like a sick joke at this point.

Cannabis?

When they say "we're living in a world of 'confusion' " they're talking about the existence of gay people, right? I think 95% of the time I hear that term it's a thinly veiled complaint that the gays don't stay in the closet where they belong. Maybe they're trying to get us to listen to more classi...

When President Nelson said that what we hear in conference will be 100% pure truth, my TBM husband quips, “Oaks isn’t speaking?”

+100 for your TBM husband.

Me: fat guy, plaid shirt, jeans, and a dark cloud following me as I look to steal a bagel and kick a puppy.
