1. I open the bulletin. A big announcement about a support group for women who have husbands with porn problems. Meet Tuesday, etc.
2. A big announcement that the Denver will now have 4 sessions on the second Saturday each month.You can have a get together in the downstairs cafeteria after doing your work. But it's a bring your own food deal.
3. Priest could not read the SM prayer right. Did it three times and on the forth did not get it right but Bishop let it go.
4. Guy conducting the meeting talked about wanting to put his tent on the temple grounds with the flap open so he can see the temple. That really set the tone.
5. 2 young girls reported ion the chat and ask questions with Neilson and Erving yesterday.Seemed they were really touched and the Church must be true because Erving cried and wept. I kid you not.
6. Some guy got up and talked about washing feet of about 12 guys. That was weird. I mean weird. God told him to do it and they let him do it. They were not church members.
You get the picture. Weird today. How was your SM meeting.
I saved the best to last. I mean the best.
7) Some sister who is married got her highest young women's award.The bishop calls her up. Tells everyone about the award and then tells her the award was misplaced. He does not have it. Sorry but please bear your testimony.

I do not miss this at all

Misplaced the award? So what won: 'La La Land' or 'Moonlight'!?!?


The whole thing with "Cryring Eyring" makes me wonder if he's really losing it...and he and Holland couldn't keep their hands off each other--get a room!!

It was ever thus

What the heck... just what??? I do not miss this. When I got my YM award I didn't go (because I felt like I didn't really earn it since I was questioning the church) and when my mother told me she tried to guilt trip me. She thrust it in my hand unceremoniously and hounded me a bit.

Mom: "Why were you asleep today?"

Me: "I wasn't feeling well."

Mom: "You seem to not "feel well" every Sunday. The bishop got up and presented your award - and when you weren't there you made him look like a fool."

I just brushed it off and eventually got rid of every momento of that shitty past I had growing up as a mormon. I feel like my childhood and teen years were stolen from me and I can't get them back.

I even left my BOM, PoGP and D&C at my mother's house to make a point.

Lol Young Woman's award NOT Young Men's XD

Oh, boy, can you imagine what the discussions will be like? "Well, my priesthood holder is into lacy thongs." "Yeah, well my god-in-embryo is into eat-away panties!"

And, the latest Hollywood blockbuster will be showing on 4-screens. Not!

"When you pray avoid vain repetitions..." The poor kid, he's probably created a screen name here already.

He can also open the front flap on his pup tent so folks can see how excited he is about the temple.

This just makes me want to cry!

Where did he find 12 guys who'd let him wash their feet? Something doesn't smell right about this!

More from that meeting:

"My penishood holder didn't immediately throw out the Victoria's Secret catalog that Satan had mailed us."

"My god-in-embryo won't let me wear garments to bed, he must be into porn."

This whole thing makes me exceedingly glad I'm no longer in there bearing that obnoxious behavior. (Shudder)

So, from an op-sec perspective, what happens when select women dhow up to the porn meeting? It'll be pretty obvious what that select group is thinking about their marriage. How can a ward function with that kind of intimate personal knowledge out in the open?

About time people stopped treating pornography like some personal insult or disloyalty.

Another day in Paradise!

A report from someone with a gay foot fetish is not something you hear every day in SM. That gets a gold star for creativity

One of the first SM I attended with a friend, a lady about thirty or so stood up and said that she had been given a vision by God.

Hey, this got my attention as a young teen. The lady was crying and in between sobs gushed out how special it was and how special and important and chosen it made her feel.

She went on and on in this vain, saying that she was so lucky to be a member of the twooo church and how she was so pleased to be a mother in zion. But hell, I felt more than cheated at her show as she never even said what the vision was about...not even a teaser.

Say what?

I'm trying to imagine if my husband met up with some men in the ward and they sat around and discussed their wives sex life. Every detail given and demonized.

The betrayal would beaver the top and incredibly humiliating. You wouldn't know who knew what about you. I would divorce my husband for doing something like that. I would then move out of town and take my kids with me.

If you spouse would do that to you, they'd also do something like that to their kids. I've seen it done! Some idiot gets up in F&T meeting and discusses the flaws and sins of one of their children, and the child is sitting there! It made me furious when parents did that.

Mormons are sick in the head.

Sorry about my computers spelling error. I'm not going to fix it, because it's just too funny considering the topic.

The man who threatened to kill my husband, then assaulted him and continues to lie about it to church and police bore his testimony. He testified how the Spirit confirmed to him that if he forgives God won't necessarily forgive (wink to the ward about "forgiving " my husband.)

But I decided earlier this week that since this might be my last chance,to bear my testimony. I testified how Christ's teachings have concretely improved my personal relationships and how the Spirit of Christ can countenance the truth. I promised myself to not allow my testimony to be a reaction to the man who hurt us, and it was not. It was much bigger and more hopeful than any such nastiness and it was therapeutic to be able to go high.

Did the foot guy like girls?

Was he in a Turkish bathhouse?

Was he at a movie about gladiators?

WAIT!!

WTH?!

As a former Child Mental Health Therapist, I am extremely concerned about that announcement in the church bulletin re: the porn support meeting....

BISHOP, ARE YOU CRAZY?!

Don't you know that every single elementary kid in that ward can read? "Mommy, what's *Pornograpy*?"

Boom. You've just given all the kids their first introduction to porn and masturbation. And every one of those curious kids can google, to find more information, pictures and videos.

Congratulations, Bish. You've just created the NEXT generation's pornography support group.

;o)

Well, I know of one support group, Sons of Helaman: http://www.lifechangingservices.org/sonsofhelaman/program-summary/

A true Porn Support Group would provide the hubbies with a list of sites to avoid. And maybe a box of Kleenex.
