I will start by saying I respect the Bishops decision and I am glad he made this decision. I just find it funny and thought I'd share, I am not being maliscious in any way so don't see it like that.

Having admited to breaking the WoW and not being all that great with the LoC, bish said I could still go to the temple so I had an interview then he called andsaid no, which is cool, but the reasons? ... Being oo controversial in Sunday School. Lol. Bless.

Pirate... pirate! What did you say in SS?

Um it's kinda something that has been going on for a long time, I think it was the whole 2000 changes made to the Book of Mormon thing that got someone telling bishop about it. I just say what is and argue with them in general and then prove myself right in the following week. But, I guess I am screwing with peoples testimonies doing that. I have a testimony though, and I said to bishop that what I say is factual but perhaps not appropriate. Topher doesn't really like organised religion but he daren't tell me not to go to church, I will kick his butt. Haha.

What do you say in Sunday school? Do you bring up Internet Mormon ideas?

I'm not saying I don't believe you, but if you admitted to having broken the WoW or LoC, that's probably it. There isn't really a TR question related to the nature of discussion in Sunday School. Unless they think you are lying about your testimony.

I love you!

How did you break the WoW? Was that when you were drinking some last year? You still doing that? I sooo miss your threads in off-topic!

I to the bishop about wow and loc two weeks before the TR interview and I asked if I could go to the temple to the grounds and he said I can gn if I want and I said,even with what I have told you and he said yes, in the TR interview, I said I was once affiliated with antimormonism but am no longer because it screws with my brains, that was when I was getting deep into stuff. Then later he said that he doesn't feel it is right just now and we should talk relating to my recent controversialism in ss.

I talk about internet Mormon stuff, I am an internet Mormon lol. But YSA ss if full of chapel Mormons and the teacher is apparently the best and most educated with scripture, I think not. I am just controversial in general though and can't help it, I like to argue in opposition of everything even if it means contradicting myself because to me everything can be opposedd accepted similtaniously.

I have drunk alcohol since then lol. I don't enjoy it. I made a conscious decision not to, but haven't in a while. I haven't broken the LoC per say, just to their understanding of the LoC, I am still innocent as such, just shared some of my thoughts and feelings which he thinks are understandable. But I still am not worthy in those respects of the temple. Someone contacted the bishop about it in cofidence apparently. But bishop will tell me next semester who, this has happened before. Just never been told not to go to the temple. Haha.

I miss you Mon. :D I haven't been feel all that up to even coming in here anymore. Not really a personal thing with the board, just a lack of umph on my part. You don't wanna know lol, well at least not publicly.

I don't think it is nazi crap, I have an impact on people's beliefs, I don't purposefully do it, nor do I feel it but clearly if people are offended enough to share with the bishop in a manner that has him worried about my spiritual welfare and feels they are concerned then surely I must be.

I was more honest with my testimony last sunday than anyone I have ever seen bear their testimony and I made people cry and so many people came up to me afterwards and even texted me. I told them I don't believe in church and I don't think the Book of Mormon is true, but I have a testimony in other areas and I know church is good and the Book of Mormon helps me in my life. I just find it hard to accept. Apparently I took 10 minutes, I felt bad.

I think that's open to interpretation. Isn't there a question about associating with apostate groups? A bishop could judge that she is, by her asking one question. Nazi group is right...

I remember when I confessed to breaking the LoC...the bishop looked at me like I was about to be stoned in the streets, and he truly felt sorry for me. My punishment? No partaking of the sacrament for a year. And you know folks like to stare at things like that...

Pirate, do not let those men define you. They have a sick habit of making people feel like they're "less" than others. You're a bright, intelligent, beautiful young lady. If bish is getting sneaky, try to let it roll off your back. Or you could find another ward...I did that...it helped for a while.

That is crazy. The commandments of men in action.
