What about the Bishop recently in the news who tried to sexually abuse a single sister and attempted to bite her sons cock off when he tried to intervene?
There are undoubtedly some good Bishops, but these men are not good because they are Bishops, they're just good men.
Thank You Bishop

I think that, technically, the penis-chomper was a Branch President, not a Bishop. Totally different thing. I see how you lying apostate critic heretics lie and twist and distort the truth to your own nefarious purposes.

Re: Thank You Bishop
Eric: Have you posted your story here or elsewhere before? A lot of old-timer posters seem to be familiar with your story but I can only glean bits and pieces from this thread. If they know this from private interactions with you that you don't wish to share, then that it is OK, but if you have posted your story before I would love to read it if you have a link.
Re: Thank You Bishop
Yeah, it's hard to keep track because there is so much content out there (a lot not authored by me or victims I know) but here is a short (highly edited and condensed article that went viral in 2009: http://utahboysranchwra.wordpress.com/t ... on-gulag/z
Here is a podcast with me discussing some things on Mormon Expression with the talented host John Larsen: http://utahboysranchwra.wordpress.com/2 ... n-podcast/
Here are some articles about the Church's involvement and current litigation:

http://utahboysranchwra.wordpress.com/2 ... lawsuit-2/
http://utahboysranchwra.wordpress.com/2 ... lawsuit-1/
DailyKos, The Atlantic, and a lot of other sites (as well as message boards, there must be dozens of threads on MDB) I can't really keep up with but discuss it as well.
Of course there are certain things I'm not permitted to discuss at this time pursuant to a protective order I was forced to sign.

Re: Thank You Bishop
This is one of many documents that is supposedly covered by a protective order that forbids me publishing or sharing them.
Despite that nonsense, I believe the public - especially Utahns, parents, or people familiar with Senator Chris Buttars - have a right, if not an obligation, to have the following information available to them.
So here, uncensored and completely free, is an unedited transcript of one deposition testimony given by Senator Chris Buttars (famous anti-gay, racist, right wing Mormon) in October 2011. It is short and, in my opinion, definitely worth the read.
