Whenever someone tells me I'm going to hell for being a Mormon, I like to remember that we do have a plan for if we're all wrong:
And if we go to hell, we will turn the devils out of doors and make a heaven of it.
-Joseph Smith Jr
So basically, if hell is real and we're all going there, the plan is to beat the sh*t out of Satan and start planting community gardens.
The concept of the antichrist is wild to me, there will be an evil wario Jesus, a Weesus if you will,
This might be the most blasphemous thing I've ever done and that's saying something because I ate a bible once.
how does one eat a Bible? asking for a friend
Step one: detach page of bible.
Step two: place into mouth
Step three: yum
practicing the organ after church in an empty chapel is such an top tier Sunday activity
like, yeah I took the sacrament in here a few hours ago. now let me SHAKE the room by playing the Phantom of the Opera Overture. ☝️badly
#the overlap between churchgoers and people who will call me out for playing hollow knight songs for prelude/postlude is#nonexistent (via @millwr1ght )
they're trying to build a data center in my city
tumblrstake what's the most Mormon way I can oppose this
what quotes/stories/concepts could I use in a persuasive letter against it
Sneak into the job site in the dead of night and bury whatever they’ve done each day
I’ve just read the other comments on this post and am realizing you may have been asking for a more serious answer.
So I probably shouldn't suggest sneaking into the job site in the dead of night not knowing whithersoever to go, but trusting the Lord to provide and then finding the data center CEO lying on the ground in a drunken stupor with his sword at his side.........
Might I recommend building a tower by the I-15 entrance and really loudly praying that the people will realize their evil?
IMPORTANT QUESTION‼️
If Jesus drove a car what kind of car would he drive?
he'd be a public transit bus driver
Mormons of Tumblr, is there any hymn that whenever it plays makes you go "oh no, did someone die?" Catholics have one called "Eagle's Wings" that is played at just about EVERY Catholic funeral to the point where it isn't, people are automatically concerned someone died (Also, if you play Dragon Quest II, the first part of the ending song for that game sounds exactly like the first part of the chorus of that song).
God Be With You Till We Meet Again and I’ll Go Where You Want Me To Go
Huh. I associate those more with missionary farewells than funerals

concept: missionary who accidentally prepares a spiritual thought on the 1992 church audit report
Ok chat what do I do if I straight up just. Don't like the bible that much. I feel like most of it is probably because of all the christian nationalist meatheads going "SOLA SCRIPTURA!!!!! YOU'RE GOING TO HELL FOR BEING GAY AND OR MORMON. THE SCRIPTURES SAY BEING GAY IS WRONG SO STOP DOING THAT!!!!!! (don't ask us about what the scriptures say about slavery)" But like. So much of it is inaccurately translated and contradictory and made for a time that is not ours. It's hard for me to trust it because of how many people over the last thousands of years have altered it. Maybe I just need to research more about it and then I'll develop more appreciation for it?
I ran this by my mom, who's been doing a sort of scholarly deep dive on all the books of scripture for the past few years, and this was what she had to say:
to answer: You are absolutely right about your reasons to distrust the Bible. It is badly translated, contradictory, steeped in its own history (as are we). It's been altered a LOT and continues to be altered by every wind of doctrine someone wants to promote. I, in fact, read the Bible twice all the way through and really didn't like it. Finally, the third time through on a deep read for an editing project, I finally "got" some things that changed my view of the Bible. I really like it now--but only because I finally understood that the Old Testament is NOT the story of The Good Guys. The Old Testament is the story of a deeply flawed family that God is trying to save despite themselves. It's the story of a covenant that God is trying to make with people--"You will be my people, and I will be your God"--and that WE TODAY have access to also. It shows us God's power. It shows us how absolutely stupid and evil most people are (including "heroes" like Sampson and that dude who sacrificed his own daughter), and how much God is willing to help us learn how to not be evil, and forgive us. And the New Testament is the story of the smartest, most amazing guy who ever walked the earth (Jesus) and how snarky he was with his opponents and how forgiving he was to the people who cried. Like me. I cry. Looking at it this new way has given me a new appreciation for how it is ancient--some of it very very ancient--and still applicable and interesting today IF you are looking for a guide to having a relationship with God--can you trust Him, how do people mess that up, what does he do when we want to change, etc. Those things are in there still. What's not in there is accurate history. We don't even have all of each of the books (some, like Haggai, to the point of it being fragmentary and nearly nonsens)
Personally, I recommend the New Oxford Annotated Bible for a good read--the footnotes help a TON. I also like Josephs Smith's edits to the bible, but they're hard to find (unless you like to read old handwriting).
Mostly, it helps so much to realize it's not the story of The Good Guys. It's the story of God being willing to save normal guys and bad guys.
When someone is abused by religion and thus turns away from religion, the tragedy is that they were abused, not that they are no longer religious, not that they don’t see your religion in the “correct” way.

I've written a poem based on my experiences as a queer mormon.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Thank you for reading. I hope this resonates with you.
Possibly my favorite thing from a vocations pamphlet.
Shout out to the escape room I saw today called Secret Combinations. I'm glad someone really did it.
The LDS church's reluctance to hire transgender furries is holding them back from having properly functioning app UI
They do, though? It's a widget you can add to the home page.
Like a lot of the UI kinda sucks, but they have made improvements.
The only possible conclusion is that the LDS church has hired at least one (1) closeted transgender furry to work on their UI. Let us pray for this unnamed furry.
Amen, they also have widgets for the RS/EQ talk for that week and links to the hymns for that week (that pop up on Sundays only as far as I can tell). They even added a feature a month ago where you can search for the ward you're visiting in the app (based on location) and pull up that ward's info. I used it once when I was traveling, so I know it works. The transgender furry is putting in the work 🙌

do not piss me off.
