Why I'm proud of my DH (or my DH's Exit story)
Started Dec 1, 2011 0 Replies 1 Like
This is what he posted on his FB, denouncing the LDS faith:"I am about to be up-front in a way that some people might find offensive. I wish to remain friends with all of you, so if you are easily…Continue
My Exit Story
Started this discussion. Last reply by Idaho Spud Dec 1, 2011. 6 Replies 2 Likes
I grew up outside of the church, in a non-denominational church. My parents didn't always live according to the faith (especially my mom). She used the name of religion [and Christ] to make me feel…Continue

BlueCodeRed replied to MikeUtah's discussion LDS President Thomas S Monson: All 18 year old high school graduates may serve missions"I agree. The lowering the age will make it more likely for young men to serve a mission. Instead of experiencing the world/ college first... Is it still going to be more or less a requirement that men serve a mission period like before? I know…"
BlueCodeRed replied to Bar Kokhba's discussion Mormonism was my social world, now what do I do for fun?"We like to play games (board games, cards); hike/ camp; build stuff; garden; have good sex; see [previously restricted] movies/ tv shows; listen to music; dance; volunteer; read; go to museums... I'm sure there's more. We're not…"
BlueCodeRed replied to Bar Kokhba's discussion What religion would you join now?"I don't think I would ever really be "mainstream" because I still have beliefs that are different than any one religion. Right now I go to a Methodist church, but it does let me have my more "Buddhist" ideas without them…"
BlueCodeRed commented on La Vonne's video
The Ex-Mormons To Jesus Testimony Series "La Vonne Earl"
"Here is your answer [according to Christianity], Doctor:"If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that…"
BlueCodeRed replied to Sari's discussion What is the biggest draw/attraction to mormonism?"Enlightened, Absolutely agree w/ what you said... I know that when I lived in Utah, I felt more of those clicks. If you weren't a live long member then you weren't as highly favored as lifers (which annoyed me).The idea of one big family…"
BlueCodeRed replied to Sari's discussion What is the biggest draw/attraction to mormonism?"I have to say the thing that drew me in was the eternal families thing. My dad and mom got divorced when I was 13. Eventually my dad got sole custody of me (which was good for me), but I still wanted to be w/ my mom's family (because they are…"
BlueCodeRed replied to JANIS HUTCHINSON's discussion Baptism for the Dead (Part I): Will the Mormon Church Baptize You After You Die? http://tinyurl.com/78zsvnf"I would think the protocol would be the same for any other baptism for the dead- that a family member is SUPPOSED to put in the information and request the ordinance done. Doesn't mean it always goes down like that though. (For example, the…"
BlueCodeRed replied to MikeUtah's discussion More or less forced into parenting and the challenges that presents in the group ex-Mormon Parenting"Thanks. I just keep going, fighting. I try to work hard and not get too down on myself when everything doesn't go exactly how I'd like it to. Good advice though. Good to have someone in my corner, thanks!"
BlueCodeRed replied to Wes's discussion Our Children?"You did a great job standing up for her- great argument for your side. Absolutely a 9 year old doesn't have enough life experience to chose her church. And like you said, that "liberalism" only stands as long as it suits their…"
BlueCodeRed commented on MikeUtah's blog post Dissolving Passive Aggressive-ness After Leaving Mormonism and Communicating Assertively"This was an incredibly well-times post. I've been dealing with some passive-aggressive Mormons. I've been trying to really not to react in kind. I was in a more attacking mode toward the beginning of my apostasy, but I didn't let it…"
BlueCodeRed replied to Wes's discussion Our Children?"That's hard. Because I mean as long as you both have custody of her, and there's no real (as defined by the state) abuse then there's not much you can do. Other then share you beliefs with her and keep going to church w/ her as long…"
