It would be really helpful if I had some sort of pamphlet that I could print out and hand to mormons that contained facts or actual scans, so I don't have to fight or loose my temper ever again. It…Continue

To preface I would just like to add that this is a difficult topic to articulate so I will do my best. As I have many friends and family members still in the Church I am finding it very frustrating…Continue

annammc replied to hamsonb's discussion What is Tolerance?"I think that the Mormon church believes "they" are tolerant of others, but I have come to feel that it is more of a judgement that they are passing rather than true tolerance. After I joined the church, I was told that we should be…"
Trisha replied to hamsonb's discussion What is Tolerance?"It is illegal. What they do is very illegal. But they have every thing all lined up and people in the right places to keep it going... There is no Tolerance in the LDS. There is a con for the people who don't know better, and…"

It would be really helpful if I had some sort of pamphlet that I could print out and hand to mormons that contained facts or actual scans, so I don't have to fight or loose my temper ever again. It would have to consist of the facts that only exist in mormon publications as info from anywhere else holds no merit. What facts have you guys found that you would include in such a thing? See More
pollypinks replied to hamsonb's discussion What is Tolerance?"It should be illegal. But taking a three year old to court for saying something nasty isn't going to work. I've never forgotten the ill treatment of my biracial children in our ward by the bishop's blonde haired blue eyed…"
hamsonb replied to hamsonb's discussion What is Tolerance?"I think bullying in the playground is a perfect example of what I was originally trying to illustrate. I've seen some pretty crazy youtube videos of kids bullying others, it is physical and violent. Again its more then a mere opinion so…"
pollypinks replied to hamsonb's discussion What is Tolerance?"Tolerance is a learned thing. We aren't born with it. Over the past 24 years since leaving the church, I've gone from being just darned pissed off, saddened, and now "tolerant" of my 90 year old dad's faith in…"
Cora Judd replied to hamsonb's discussion What is Tolerance?"The above comment of yours, ("I just remember at one point I was a Mormon who...."), has been on my mind a lot since you posted it 3 months ago. It's such a kind position to take. Not always an easy one though."
