Okay I’m worried

I really hope that people don’t define cults by old fashioned dresses and locked compounds because that’s just not the definition of a cult. 

The more subtle things are the more effective they are at control in the long run. If anything, it is one of the most effective cults because of its ability to change over time.

So much mormon-related bullshit happens every day but posting about it all is really draining. Just wanted to let you all know that there have been countless infuriating church things going on in my life and I'm super bitter about it. Hopefully soon I can get the motivation to make posts again. Have a lovely day everyone

“When did you become an atheist?” 

Me: “I was born an atheist. Mormonism was just a phase.”

Time is Weird. I read through a few of the potential musical songs I wrote around this time last year, when my grips on my faith started to drift towards immense agnosticism and being much more critical of the church. Even then I still held onto a lot of the doctrine surrounding the Plan of Salvation. Mainly because it helped me understand my abuser more, which I think was something I needed. Its just difficult because the words feel so odd now. Thinking that I had ever been able to believe is such an odd thought. I mean, clearly it happened. I have seminary journals to prove it. But. Faith is such a fickle thing. Belief is also such a fickle thing. I think the more I tried to hold on when it was clear that it wasn't working for me, the more intense the feelings of Needing To Let Go got. And I'm not necessarily proud of all the harsh words I've said. But. Much like it is with trauma guilt, it's not something I'm going to take back for a forgiveness that won't be guaranteed. Whatever faith I had is something that is out of reach, and trying to find it is not something I have the energy to do right now.

Watching people deny that mormonism is a cult

Exmo tumblr has been so devoid of content. I need to make some posts to keep it alive.
