...and affirm that those 15 frightened men and the people who believe them about homosexuality are wrong, wrong, wrong.

I have booze stashed in the kitchen. My husband, though an antimo, doesn't drink and disapproves of it. Whenever he finds a bottle of something and comments on it, I say it's for cooking. Yeah, I cook with Mike's harder lemonade. He still has no clue that I drink.

The recipe called for dry white wine. I used white cooking wine. I told the misses that I needed to get some real white wine for the next time. She gave me the look of disapproval. Until I said because it has less salt and would be healthier to use. She seemed fine with that. Never bought wine before, but there is always a first time.

Dear Michael (or whoever reads this from LDS Member Locater Services since the return email is rather generic),
Has it ever dawned on you folks how simple it is for a person to find an LDS congregation in this day and age if there is interest in attending? All one must do in this fast-paced online world is to google the word “Mormon” and an LDS owned website will return in the search within the top five entries. Easy!
The LDS Church and its members often criticize people who stop attending without fully understanding why inactivity happened in the first place. When members and the Church itself refer to those who have either left formally or simply through nonattendance, they are frequently heard to say “they can leave the church, but they can’t leave the church alone”. Has the church and its members themselves stopped to look at what it/they are doing? Really looked in the mirror?
You guys come out of the clear blue asking me for the contact information of my sister who you know d*** well has no interest in attending. You have her records confirming that for decades she has not attended. With that in mind, I have come up with my own “so-called pet phrase” to describe what the church and the active members often do – “The can let members leave, but they can’t let members who decide to leave alone”.
I had a lovely lunch with my sister, <sister's name from her prior marriage decades ago and the name the church had on their records>, just within this last week – Thanksgiving is a great time to see loved ones! During that time, we shared wonderful conversation and love that family members can develop if they let themselves be their true selves without having some organized religion dictating what they should say, do, and be. The LDS Church is particularly bad at trying to control what a person is or becomes and there are countless stories of how this strains family relationships. I am thankful my family is not one that succumbs to the Church’s manipulations.
In the end, I told my sister, <sister's name from her prior marriage decades ago and the name the church had on their records>, that I would help her resign from the LDS Church. Will you respond to this email and provide the instructions for doing so? I have heard from others I have known who have left that there are websites to assist in this matter, but it seems it might be quicker/more efficient to work directly with the LDS Church on terminating a membership – that is, if the Church can bury its desire to harass and simply end the relationship.
Thank you in advance for your prompt attention at providing relevant information on how to leave expeditiously. I just might put it to use myself
Best Regards,

NewLight

This is great. I love cooking. The other day we had fondue: cheese and chocolate. The recipe called for dry white wine. I used white cooking wine. I told the misses that I needed to get some real white wine for the next time. She gave me the look of disapproval. Until I said because it has less salt and would be healthier to use.

I resigned and was asked not to wear garments any more, but they are still mixed in with my gentile undies in my drawer and I just wear them simetimes. They hold no meaning to me whatsoever, they are just underwear that I have to realize that some people will judge me for wearing or not wearing.
