You guys are amazing! Thank you for your rational approach towards the church. I am myself a mormon and you've just put words on some of my feelings. Thank you. You can't (or maybe you can) imagine what this means for me :D
This is why I feel the Church has its policy wrong when it comes to Gays in the same way it had it wrong when it came to Blacks and the Priesthood. Blacks are not the result of some curse placed on Cain and then down to the posterity of Ham. We can all trace our blood lines back to a tribe of "Black" people living in Africa 2 Million years ago
It's great to hear this. My partner can't believe when some of my family members (who are so angry and unhappy) insist that I can't actually be happy because I'm gay and have left the church. My sister actually suggested I would be happier living a "chaste" life. It's just a truly bizarre disconnect.
I think that many organized religions believe their way is the ONLY way....and under each of their "logics" they can rationalize literally anything. Many organized religions rely on the word "faith". "Well, you just have to have faith."
Another logical point at 3:40. How true. How dare anyone claim to be the "go to authority" on being Gay unless they are indeed Gay.
