Just more lies and blatant dishonesty for the the LDS church corporation/cult.

This.
Sadly, it's an exact parallel.

We simply invent new reasons, new justifications, new explanations. Sometimes we ignore the evidence altogether.” (Mathew Syed 'Black Box Thinking')

Doctrinal correction and limitation of the religious pulpit use as social soapbox.

On that basis, testimony bearers having their mic cut off mid-testimony would be a monthly occurrence in every congregation on the planet.

The cult reserves the right to govern and control its meetings as it pleases. I'll grant that. The same goes for the following:
Year 1977; Black man gets up in church pulpit and bears testimony how the brethren are being racist by not allowing black men to hold the priesthood and bar black women from serving in the temple even as laundry workers.
Truly, the LDS cult is on record for being racist and gay bashing as it sought to destroy the rights of Californians to marry who they love and enjoy liberty in a free country. The Mormon church is shameful and a proven enemy against gay rights.
Shame on you!

How is it using the pulpit as a social soapbox when she was discussing her faith in her own church?

How on earth was she stating she had faith in the Church by bearing testimony of things that go against the Church teachings?
Is that like stating you have faith in the Catholic Church but the Pope is wrong about everything?

I'm pretty sure Jersey Girl meant she was discussing "her faith" while IN "her own church."
And in my experience, no Catholic states they "have faith in the Catholic Church," expressing faith in a church is pretty unique to Mormons.

What did she say that goes against Church teachings?
