Why does it bother TBMs and the LDS Church...

Post by _sock puppet »

that former members, even apostates, have any society with one another?

that they have any fora for discussing their common and their unique experiences post-Mormon, such as Mormon Stories podcasts or here, MDB?

Simon Belmont for example was violently adamant about protestors outside of the GC venue, but did not even handedly condemn those TBMs that come here just to derail discussion by former Mormons.

I've never been bothered by it. Haven't heard or seen that anyone else is.

Probably because it is a form of "mental disorder" for people to "group" themselves in hate, especially toward things and people that only create and do good.

I'm an ex-catholic, ex-atheist, yet I don't have a need to condemn such groups save as they address me and my beliefs and religion. I could care less otherwise.

Yet, you all have a mental disorder leaving the faith, but simply can't leave it alone.

Pfffffft! Utter pap. You are merely repeating what the church wants you to believe.

You don't know me, so grow up and start learning to stop bearing false witness of people.
No body tells me what to believe.

Hi Philo,

You're new here so you probably haven't realized yet that ldsfaqs is mentally about 13 years old and one of the more prolific, not-coincidentally idiotic/repetitive/boring posters on this board. I try not to block anyone out, but others have had their experience of these boards greatly enhanced by putting ldsfaqs on ignore. YMMV.
