Fight The New Drug

This is for encouragement, ideas, and support for people going through a faith transition no matter where you hope to end up. This is also the place to laugh, cry, and love together.

No, and apparently neither do child molesters within the sacred walls of the local ward.

But transgender people need to be followed around by someone with a bullhorn, announcing the danger of their presence. Oh, but we (The Church) love them and welcome them... as long as they stay the hell away from our kids and don't identify socially, chemically or surgically as trans.

Meanwhile, we will defend the child molesters as much as we can get away with. It's a way of indirectly protecting the good name of our founding prophet's obedience to sword wielding angels.

The high priest who molested my kids, and others, now in jail - 40 years without parole (he was producing child porn - not enough to molest them, had to video and distribute it - but I'm sure he paid tithes on the $$ he made so...)

He was in the church addiction support group - aka - addiction enabler group - aka protected pedophiles group. The good old boys were in a club, hugs in foyer, leadership callings. They smiled at one another, would watch kids with judgement from a distance, cold hard stares to wives. Victim blaming, enabling.

No one at church will help.

Detective understood, he was abuse survivor himself. Have to find judge and jury who are athiest, then you get a fair trial.

One of the kids has now had surgery to new gender.
Other kids are undergoing hormone therapy.
Getting rid of parts of yourself can be a way to heel.

Those who have left the church are doing much better than those still trapped in it.

Perhaps everyone needs a license to access the Internet so we're all safe and kids won't be endangered.
Outside of the medical industry, is there any reason to make pornography except to reach new, virgin-eye viewers?

I can't imagine what this experience must have been like. I hope everyone in your family is finding a place where they can find peace.

Have been? Oh no. Currently is.
It doesn't end with the monster in jail.
The kids - this is a life long struggle.

Here comes the holy-hell-days.
Merry X-mas.

Licenses granted to tithe payers and Trump donors?
Good faith does not require evidence, but it also does not turn a blind eye to that evidence. Otherwise, it becomes misplaced faith.
