is that the exact weight of the holy spirit? lol. you're so judgemental - as are all the people making this fallacious comments towards people who love people differently than you do. as you did not make a choice to be straight, and could not allow yourself to be with someone of the same sex in a sexual and romantic way, neither can someone who was born homosexual. I personally don't believe in God any longer, or the LDS faith, but your Bible tells you not to judge and to love your neighbour.

Sister Carolyn Ball Bruce you are a brave soul and I want to congradulate you for following your heart and showing to God how strong you really are. He truly loves you and now you can teach to without being judged by those who are held back by the unnacceptance of the world. Now you can truly live freely with the spirit you know is true to you.

This is like a wife that keeps going back to the husband that beats her. This woman was a glutton for punishment. Glad that she has escaped the cycle of emotional abuse from the church.

Fuck the LSD. You people are nut jobs. Joseph Smith was just a piece of shit con man and I truly think that a person has to be really stupid or a little retarted to actually believe in this bullshit cult. If you are a mormon & disagree with me; Fuck You & Die ya brain dead idiot!!!!

Carolyn, I noticed how you conveniently didn't mention the effects your selfish behavior has had on your children, the young women you taught, your ex-husband or the other members of your ward.

@ajanihodge I really really hope you are single, no woman deserves a man like you. You get an orgasm and she gets a dry painful experience. What a deal.

@ajanihodge Guess what? Sex is natural. People have sex. There's nothing wrong with it as long as nobody gets harmed and it's consentual. Your medieval ideas are embarrassing.

[ajanihodge]

Respond to this video... most people want to simply except that sex is natural & just a part of loving because by telling themself this they can in some way justify sex as being right even despite the bible constantly saying that sexual acts are a major sin

[ajanihodge]

Respond to this video... ........having a sexual thought. sex contuary to belief is not a natural sense etc but rather a way of thinking, reproduction is for bringing children into the world while sex is only a bunch of loose & wild hormones that force your mind to think of so much that is in reality completely senseless. consider this could you commit any such sexual sin, adultery etc if you could not have sex? you use your legs to walk, so why cant you just use your penis for repro

@jordagio1 yeah i can agree to that, but sex & reproduction is 2 seperate things, (at least i think so) i mean to reproduce all you need to do is just insert your erectile in the fm vagina & pump away til the urge to ejaculate takes place. now sex on the other hand, well, you know all about that part, it would involve a lot of thoughts & other types of desires etc. now i believe this for a fact that you can love someone & be with that person & reproduce with that person without ever............
