It is reflected in posts like those advocating that believing, unmarried Mormons have dry sex in their underwear, or that looking at pornography is okay for ostensibly believing Mormons.
Leaving the church is not hard if one does not believe. It is just a matter of walking out the door and not looking back.
The LDS church does not tell people how to live life. They advise people how to live life and one can choose to do it or not. It is really that simple. And at the end of the day, no one is totally free to do life the way they wish to do it. We have wives, husbands, boyfriends, girlfriends, children, bosses all telling us what we need to do and when we need to do it. No one is free, not even the hermit living in the wilderness is free.
I see that meta-cognition is not one of your strong suits.
I am glad that she is finally being honest. And that is important: to put your cards on the table for all to see.
How did that talk with your bishop go when you told him that young single adults should dry hump in their underwear and watch porn?
But lets face it, she remained silent in sunday school or in any other meeting because she needed to find opportunities to support her disbelief and in this case it was with the people who made comments.
Totally agree. If you need an opportunity to support your disbelief, just listen to what believing Mormons say.
