Yet the Church says it promotes families!Īll I can say now is good riddance! I am old now (age 71) and my life since as a secular humanist and atheist has been far more rewarding, fulfilling and happy. You remind me of the kind of missionaries that Elder Tad R.

I told my 200 mile away cousin about my sexual orientation, not specific acts, who told her home teacher who told her bishop who told her stake president who told my stake president.

The Attorney General who propped up Donald Trump, a President that cheated on all three of his wives, the last of which with a porn star who he paid off.
