Calling LDS garments “the most Christian symbol ever” is a masterclass in gaslighting yourself.

Imagine doing this thousands of years ago in wooden submarines you built on a beach, full of animals, their excrement, mixed with food, no navigation, and how about a bunch of bees. Totally believable. https://t.co/TYfwgtVnHP

The restoration of the Aaronic and Melchizedek priesthoods wasn’t mentioned until years after the Church was founded. No early documents mention angelic ordinations. #LDS #ComeFollowMe

The @Ch_JesusChrist had the chance to stop a child molester. Instead, they hid behind “clergy privilege” and let the abuse continue. Now, an Arizona court says they can be sued for it.

The lawsuit involves allegations that church officials in Arizona had a duty to report a father's confession of abusing his child.

Some of the information here is inaccurate. I reposted this without double checking and that’s on me, but I think this link is a better reflection of reality. Thanks @andynewmanlpc 👍 https://t.co/dmv22oQT1A

some of the data on this chart is inaccurate. I should have double checked this, I apologize. I believe this presents more accurate information. While the chart got some ages wrong, it is true that the early church presidents married young teenagers. https://t.co/BmoAkrZLEg

This is a list of LDS prophets and the ages of their youngest wives. It really speaks for itself. #MormonHistory #SeekTruth #LDSQuestions

To all the PIMOs sitting in church today, hearing things you don’t believe and managing for the sake of family, peace, or survival.. you’re not crazy, weak, or broken. You’re doing something incredibly hard and you’re not alone. #LDS #Mormon @Ch_JesusChrist

“The only evil angelic being that can actually plant words in your mind is Satan himself…” This isn’t revelation, Plumb. It’s textbook psychosis. If you’re not speaking metaphorically, please consider getting evaluated.
@churchtalkative When you understand you don’t actually have your own thoughts, everything finally makes sense. YOU—the intelligence that stands at the precipice—dictate how thoughts flow. But the thoughts themselves are generated either by angelic voices or the biological functions of the

Belief isn’t a preference you pick, it’s shaped by what you’re convinced is true. You can act as if, but you can’t will yourself to believe the Earth is flat if you know it’s round. So to my #LDS friends: can belief really be a choice, or not?

I’ve seen several tweets lately from people who left the #LDS Church and chose to come back. It’s made me think. Some return not because they were wrong to leave, but because they found something worth reclaiming. I think there’s room for respect in both directions.

To all the women out there: If you’re dating someone who thinks your body or cooking skills determine your worth… You also don’t have to stay with them.
To all the men out there: If you are dating someone who is overweight or doesn't know how to cook.. You do not have to stay with them.

Came across a great YouTube channel that approaches LDS talks and addresses in a more fair (but critical) manner. Definitely worth checking out! https://t.co/wZHBmCSDr8

I list my church callings and roles in my bio specifically to counter the tired narrative that those who leave never really believed or weren’t committed. My commitment was authentic and my testimony was sincere. Criticize that if you want but recognize the intention behind it.
@Mound_builder @JS_StrngstSldr I find it hilarious how you list out your callings in your bio as though somehow that adds weight to your PIMO position. Those are basic ahh ward callings lmao.

Fixed it: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is the only religion on the planet with members that are authorized to possess and use the Priesthood of Melchizedek… something they just made up.

Appealing to a spiritual confirmation is worthless because every religion claims the same spiritual witness as proof of their truth. If the method confirms conflicting beliefs, it confirms nothing at all.
“How do you know?” Lots of reasons, but above all God confirmed it to me.
