Release the Epstein files.
Impeach Trump.
Child rapists and friends of child rapists DO NOT belong in government, ESPECIALLY NOT AS PRESIDENT.

Poverty isn't God's will, but churches and billionaires that hoard money sure want you to think it is. Poverty is a policy choice.

Brammer is my Utah Senator. This is what I sent him today:

Hello Senator Brammer,

Impeaching judges makes you look scared of the law.

It's a strange move that I absolutely do not support.

Thanks,
Amanda Roos

If you don't think Jesus would be flipping tables right now you probably have pictures of white Jesus in your house.

A God that says "you are so evil I had to kill Jesus to save you!" is a cruel, blood-thirsty God.

Beautiful Chicago. Steven and I got to visit Chicago for a couple days in July.

Most Mormons with polygamist ancestry can go through their family tree and do the math on birthdays. They were raping children and those children got pregnant.

03.10.2025 20:16 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Mormon apologists try to claim their prophets weren't raping children because they weren't having sex with the child brides. It's not hard to prove this wrong.

I do not see how a third option is possible, except that somehow they are ok with child rape? I don't believe that is the case for any of the Mormons I know. It's always one or both of the other options.

03.10.2025 20:16 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Mormons who do not consider Joseph Smith and Brigham Young to be child rapists and sex traffickers either 1) do not understand rape and consent, or 2) are ignorant of the child rape and sex trafficking in Mormonism.

Here's a light example: passing the sacrament with your right hand? Doctrine? Or no? If not doctrine, why so strictly enforced in so many wards and families?

03.10.2025 04:53 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Then they deny teachings that get too inconvenient for the corporate church and local leaders have arbitrary power and control over members (and especially over children).

The Mormon church, like any good cult, doesn't have doctrine. It has vague rules that it calls doctrine. It leaves enforcement up to the hierarchy (family, ward, stake).

(well, based on gender, all the women get one name and all the men get another name).

Great thing to bring up with a Mormon if you never want them to talk to you again. Recommend bringing it up with particularly persistent missionaries.

Mormons get a "new name" when they go to the temple for the first time. It gets talked about like it's something special and unique.

It's not. It just depends on what day of the month it is. Everyone going through that day gets the same name as you.

The prophet worship in Mormonism is so creepy. And the pretending-it's-not-succession-based-power attitude from Mormons pretending they don't know Oaks will, of course, be the next prophet with Nelson gone... Culty. Self-delusion so they don't have to think about corporate nature of cult leadership.

Growing up as a Mormon kid I was taught that I chose my family in the preexistence.

This is an abusive teaching that completely ignores the fact that children absolutely do not consent to being born at all, let alone get to choose their family.

I hate it. It's so abusive.

Anyone have recommendations for where I can find more accurate Utah history? The obviously one-sided takes in all the Mormon accounts are making me sick.

02.10.2025 05:40 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Utah history is so biased towards Mormon perspectives. Mormons never list "self defense" as a reason for conflict between Indians and Mormons, even though Mormons were killing men, women, and children and stealing their land.

Enough is enough. We need to break these cycles of the rich getting richer while the poor die younger and younger.

This is not freedom.

We do not exist to make billionaires richer.

It is completely unfair that how long you live depends on how rich you are in America.

People in other countries live longer because they have universal healthcare.

These teachings were used by Mormons as justification for murdering and enslaving native people. It's disgusting.

When Voltaire wrote "anyone who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities" he could have been writing about Mormons.

The Book of Mormon is racist Bible fanfiction.

The skin of people who sin gets darker and darker. The skin of people who are righteous gets lighter and lighter.

I'm glad I'm not the first cycle breaker. My grandma and mom did a lot of work to protect me.

But I'm still angry.

Their stories still go unheard because the Mormon church is a billion dollar propaganda machine with a missionary force spreading their cult's version of history.
