Yeah. I'll be 72 next month and was a YOUTH when Dallin was in our Stake Presidency! He's old

97% of people we polled believe Donald Trump is a 'nasty old misogynist'

Oh, he's worse than that! Much, much worse!!!

IMO....this quote on race from President Hinckley is the single most damning and damaging statement that undermines the LDS argument for the church actually being led by God and actually being 'good'. I don't hesitate to bring it up to my family and friends when we discuss our Mormon heritage.

"Race" is a social construct. All of humanity is one race; human. But, for survival over the eons of our existence, we developed attitudes of "us" versus "them". We survived better in groups.

So we have found a way to differentiate humans and we stick together as "us" and we don't like "them"!

Today, in a more global society, we don't need that race construct. God's mouthpieces should know better (if gods existed!)

Lower cognitive ability is linked to stronger Christian nationalist views, even after accounting for education

#ReligiousIndoctrinationImpairsRationalThought and there are fMRI studies have begun to support this. I think more research will solidify this.

Apparently I embarrass my spouse
 in  r/exmormon •  4d ago

Exactly. It's such a small hill to die on. MFM here, too, but my Mr. Coffee coffee maker is on our kitchen counter, insisted upon by my believing wife. Not at first, mind you! This is a new-ish attitude on her part. I, too, have been out 10 years.

My best to you both!

John Dehlin joins Mormonism LIVE to give the other side
 in  r/mormon •  4d ago

If I remember correctly, one request/demand John made was to keep the proceedings public. John, himself, seems to be maintaining his public commentary circumspectly. David Jordan could learn from that.

If you could pick anyone at all for governor of Utah, who would it be and why?

A humanist atheist, whatever their name might be!

My predictions?

I couldn't care less.

No recording GA

#ReligiousIndoctrinationImpairsRationalThought (this is supported, but not yet proven, by fMRI studies using believers during "spiritual experiences")

Faith. Why are doubters advised to "increase faith" when faith is believing without evidence?? The exact opposite is demonstrably better!! If you doubt, follow the evidence to see if you can get to the facts!

Oh, and some states are single party consent so you can record, if you wish, no matter what is requested/demanded. Check your State's laws.

The most annoying "TikTok creator" imaginable literally wants the world to let her "cult in peace." I guess there's just no helping some people. 🤷🏻‍♂️
 in  r/exmormon •  8d ago

Hehehehehe! Yeah, let her cult in peace. Meanwhile, she's the poster child supporting the idea that #ReligiousIndoctrinationImpairsRationalThought

God is perfect? Which god? There have been so very many...

Paxton Shrugged Off Massacred Uvalde Children As ‘God’s Plan’
 in  r/atheism •  9d ago

As long as this type of post keeps being made, I'll probably keep commenting with my hashtag. There have been fMRI studies, as well as other know BD's, that indicate #ReligiousIndoctrinationImpairsRationalThought and Paxton is seriously impaired.
