2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Brigham Young’s Great-Great-Granddaughter on Mormonism and Mitt Romney [View all]oxymoron
(4,076 posts)Mormonism is a dangerous cult. They isolate their members and discourage association with non-members. Mormon kids above 16 go to church for 1 1/2 hours every morning before going to school. You are then expected to go on a mission, get married "for time and all eternity" in a temple (that non-member family members may not attend - I missed both of my sister's weddings), and then it's time to "be fruitful and multiply". I have a cousin that had 17 children by the time she was 42.
And I can assure you, it wasn't a place for a gay kid. It's extremely harmful to gay youth. Took me a while to get past that aversion therapy. It also tore my family and many others apart.
I consider The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints a truly evil organization.
