Tacenda, I'm glad you can post on this board
and even start threads. I too am glad leaders changed their minds about that Policy of Exclusion revelation. Wish there was some way they could rescind that
Musket Fire Madness which has gripped BYU and Church HQ. How did the thinking of the Westboro Baptist Church come to dominate Mormonism?
Thanks for your post, you always make me feel welcome. About the church behaving badly on the Musket Fire Madness, I've no idea why they would use that term when DezNat exists, they better stop it!

I love that it's a religion that can change their minds from the awful revelations or policies it's leaders make. Many other religions are stuck from the get go.
I love that the Bible isn't fully accepted, yahoo!
I loved the days when we had roadshows, and they didn't have to be spiritual all.the.time!
I loved when Relief Society had their own lessons, not combined with the men's.
I love the Primary sharing times, not exactly all the songs, but the fun had in some of those cute sharing times and what kids will say.
I love the service that I would have been too afraid to attempt had I not been called to it.
I love the growth it gave me when being called in a position I'd never dare do unless I felt obligated.
I love that it helped me have friends, even though they may be fake, but not all luckily.
Well, I won't bore any more, just saying if I had to live a religion, Mormonism ain't so bad as long as I realize it's man made like the rest but still has some value in areas.
Posts like this make me wish we had a thumbs up or upvote or like feature.
I appreciate that you'd want to upvote or like my post, nice to meet you!

Tacenda, have you by any chance heard this podcast with Kolby and Cami Reddish? Where they are talking about BYU Valedictorian Matt Easton tugged on our sense of justice and fair play.

I did, and so true, how that might affect a TBM. Especially those in the audience that are gay that day Holland put down Matt Easton and mentions in a round about way that the faculty needs to tow the line. I'd chalk it up to be almost or as harmful as Ernest Wilkinson telling gays to leave the BYU campus. Two steps forward, two steps backwards in this church.
