Over 1400 people officially resigning from the LDS Church over the next week or 2. Incredible. Thanks for posting these!
ReplyDeleteDonna -- I'm proud of all the Mormons voting with their feet. They're taking a stand against a bigoted organization.
DeleteI'm still so furious over the LDS church's decision. I haven't been this upset since I started learning about its ugly history. I hope the resignation numbers double if not triple.
ReplyDeleteHeather -- Me too. The decision was cold and callous. Someday, the LDS leadership will regret passing that policy.
DeleteAs I said on my blog, people predicted equality of marriage would destroy families, but they didn't know it would be a religious organization, not marriage equality, that would do the destroying
ReplyDeleteShaw -- Ironic, isn't it? A religious organization bringing about the very horror it predicted.
DeleteBen Carson: "My ideas about creationism and pyramids are ‘not silly at all’ — they’re in the Bible"
ReplyDeleteReally, Ben? So is this: "Anyone who desecrates it must die; anyone who works on that day will be cut off from the community. Work six days only, but the seventh day must be a day of total rest. I repeat: Because the LORD considers it a holy day, anyone who works on the Sabbath must be put to death.' (Exodus 31:12-15 NLT)"
So get ready for mass executions under Kindly Doctor Ben when he becomes president and goes after everyone who works on Sundays. He is a certifiable nut.
Shaw -- Ben should read the Old Testament a little more closely. I get nervous when politicians see that book as inerrant.
