i know that you all have mormon love in you but anybody got some of that sweet sweet mormon hate?? i need a favor
Daisy I am a professionally trained hater and my skills are at your disposal
since there is such an "english speakers who don't even try to pronounce a foreign mame correctly" epidemic, native english speakers often try to overcorrect and end up thinking they have a moral imperative to pronounce every foreign name correctly at all times. so i'm gonna hold your hand and look into your eyss as i say this: you can't. you can't pronounce every sound in a language you don't speak. and that's fine. it happens to the rest of us too. we won't be mad so long as you try your best.
“I did some research to pronounce this name correctly” = 👍 great! even if the pronunciation was still off (and learning to pronounce a foreign language correctly takes a lot of practice) people generally appreciate it when someone goes the extra mile for accuracy, and honestly, languages are cool
“I’m probably not saying that correctly”/“sorry for my pronunciation” = 👍 understandable! foreign languages often have sounds that aren’t used in English and learning to correctly pronounce unfamiliar phonemes is genuinely difficult even with help
“lol I’m not even gonna TRY to pronounce that 😂” = 👎 THIS is the problem, if treats languages other than English like they are inherently ‘weird’ or ‘overly complicated’ just because you aren’t familiar with them
“One thousand apologies for my butchering of this beautiful effervescent tongue, I will now flagellate myself as punishment for my crimes” = 👎 chill
so like,,,,,,the mormons DEFINITELY work in monsters inc
hey guys give me a read on this. made this post 7 years ago in my trying too hard to be funny phase. is this funny or in any way accurate please and thank you
Yeah I think you were on to something
if any of you lack whimsy let him ask of god
must suck to be a Mormon, yall ain’t even considered Christian’s by the government anymore 😭😭
The US government has done much worse things to mormons we'll be alright
what are we talking about
The Missouri Extermination Order comes to mind, but also the Utah War in 1857, when Johnston's army invaded Salt Lake City
ok but being dunked into the font 104 times in a row made me zone the heck out and just let it be done to me and the guy who was baptising was aching in his underarms for two days
we'd do it again we've agreed
@turtledahturtle it appears someone has asked for a storytime (very unexpected trust me!). This is emotional for me, and I took a lot of care to write this.
The story of how I was baptised 104 (+11) times in a row, April 2025.
I can but boast of my God.
It was a beautiful April in 2025, I'd been baptised for just under a year and Easter was coming up when my boyfriend's (aforementioned as "The Guy" in the original post) ward planned a multi-day temple trip with almost the whole ward. Due to being extremely blessed, I was able to go as well. Up to that point, my only-member-in-my-family and not car-having, rural-area-living self was not able to ever attend the temple before, though I tried. Something always came up, like the person driving me getting sick, or my family spontaneously planning something for that weekend, or the likes. It seemed intentional. Nowadays I think it might have been so.
The problem is I always want to dm my mutuals some shit like "I consider you an ally to my cause"
Reblog to tell your mutuals "I consider you an ally to my cause"
Me when I see someone wish painful death and total eradication of all Mormons: Well golly, they seem awful upset. I'd better pray that they find peace in their hearts.
Me when my phone auto corrects "Deseret" to "dessert" or "desert": What is this hate crime? Why hast thou thrown in with the Prince of Darkness and all his odious ilk? When will my people be free?
"Um actually you're not a real Christian because mormons believe in a different Jesus." ok that's fine. You can't use any of these paintings bc they're actually of my Jesus and not yours.
my favorite superpower is being immune to coffee. every time "ohhh you can never have it again" comes up as a gotcha in an interview or game show or whatever I giggle to myself and pour myself a big ol glass of juice
Ok Tumblrstake, I have a proposal. A lot of the time we all end up using our tumblrstake blogs to complain about/dunk on people spewing hateful bullcrap about our religion, which makes sense. It's useful to have a place to vent about those kinds of things. But, it is disheartening to regularly go through tumblrstake and be confronted with all the nasty things people are saying about us. So, what would yall think about coming up with a tag to stick on all those kinds of posts for filtering purposes? (I don't know exactly what, I would love help brainstorming)
it has been proposed that we use #boggposting, as in both Governor Boggs, and also getting bogged down. all those in favor please manifest it by the raise of the right hand
I'm in 🙋♀️
"Most popular Mormon media is Twilight" factoid is incorrect. Most popular blatantly Mormon media is Twilight. Most popular media made by a Mormon is Doom (1993)
Alrighty it's time for my semiannual Takea So Hot They're Against The Word Of Wisdom!
President Oaks has changed as a person because he's the prophet now, and that means something, and that change is a good one.
Most GAs aren't thinking about being homophobic when they're talking about temple marriage. They are men who have been married in the temple, have found value in that, and are sharing that value, same way we do when there's a really good meme.
General Conference is GENERAL. If you are looking to hear about a problem that you have that does not affect most people, you are going to have to do some work to find it!
Kearon and Caussé should fight on the top of the conference center for the right to be the apostle from the worst place. Uchtdorf can supervise as he speaks the celestial language.
i love when they say “the tomb could not contain Christ.” He escaped. He’s got too much life in Him for that nonsense. no time for sleeping in a cave
The Messiah
He destroyed his tomb
Yes
YES
The Messiah is out
Whether or not we’re “actually” Christian, you’ve got to admit members of our church have created some INCREDIBLE art of Him.
Me: why do I feel so spiritually lost and alone? Whatever could be done about it?
*looks at the numerous queer Mormon discord channels I'm in that have regular in person and online events that I never attend*
Me: so alone ....
You are always welcome at any events we have. Also if you're ever in Provo/Orem area, let me know, I'd love to meet up for ice cream or something
