We have a “don’t ask don’t tell” policy in regards to my online anti-Mormon activities.

Re: Calling to Repentance

I spent a lot of time as a TBM sleepless in the middle of the night repenting and despairing that I wasn’t good enough. So much guilt and regret. One of the best parts for me of my faith crisis is how much kinder I am to myself and others. Learn from it and move on. This focus on confessing and self...

Re: Staying Positive While Being a Non-Believer

For me, as long as I take a balanced approach my DH can take my criticisms more in stride. And there are things I can be supportive or complimentary about (good people, kind service). But when I was unfailingly critical he got more defensive and more frustrated with me. Now he’s actually more willin...

Re: RFM Podcast--GC McNuggets

Am loving this podcast. A couple of random thoughts (not all the way done but...) 1. Literal Gathering of Israel! Why did I never remember that when the church started saying Zion is where you are and the gathering is going to be in your state/stake/ward or what have you. I just wonder how many thin...

Re: Moses Chapter 3

This brought up an embarrassing memory! As a young married woman I mentioned The Garden of Eden being in Missouri in a mixed crowd. The looks of incredulity and amusement were humiliating. I shut up and went home and did some research. Confronted my dad (who had taught me Missouri=Eden) and he did s...

Re: The most surreal conversation with DW about retrofitting stories

I think that’s why my DH won’t have those conversations with me anymore - when I’d point out similarities like that or point out inconsistencies he would get defensive and we’d argue. We haven’t argued about the church in a long time but only because we hardly ever discuss it :( I have asked him bef...

Re: Questions about YM changes

They didn’t go into the detail for the YM the way they did for the YW. They basically said it’s the bishops main job to take care of the YM and YW and eliminated the ward YM. They also pushed the stake YM Pres to a member of the high council. I agree with other posters this is more about not having ...

Re: If you aren't doing conference, what are you doing?

Beach. But I had to conference earlier with the DH. And the new recommend question about keeping the sabbath holy is probably gonna come up later. I tried to forestall it by saying we all get to decide for ourselves how to keep it holy for ourselves but I don’t think that’s gonna fly after Nelson’s ...

Dallin is 87. He’s pretty healthy. Not sure he can outlast Nelson but if he does whooooo boy are things at church going to get ugly (or is it uglier?)!

Re: WOMEN can now be a witness to baptisms!

I think it's great. The curious thing to me is that women are never specifically mentioned. Children are, but not women. I mean, that's really the story here, right? 1-Any member holding a current temple recommend, including a limited-use recommend, may serve as a witness to a proxy baptism. 2-Any ...

Ouch! Makes me think of my dad saying it’d be a lot more comfortable and less money to just tattoo the markings and be done with it. That could be less painful than a scissor gouge too!

I predict that the only prayers given by women will be in the Women's session. I am going out on a limb that one woman will give a talk outside of the Women's session. Elder Bednar will ask for the Holy Ghost to carry his words into the hearts of those who hear. President Eyring will cry, of course...

I’d rather focus on what’s here and now rather than on what I’m told is going to happen/be after.
