I'm a college professor and, well, a professional X-Mormon. Thus, ProfXM. I love my Mormon family, but have issues with LDS Inc. And I'm not afraid to tell LDS Inc. what I really think... anonymously, of course!
latent Mormon sexuality
So, I’m wading through my inbox the other day when I get an email from a friend I haven’t heard from in quite a while. He knows I’m no longer LDS and that I have a sense of humor. So, he forwards me the following email: My co-worker, ******* (name…
Courts of Love
Police negotiated with an armed student outside the Provo Temple yesterday as he threatened to kill himself. Turns out he had just been through a Mormon “court of love.” Oh to be subjected to such love…
Who says Mormons discriminate?
University of Phoenix to Pay $1,875,000 for Religious Bias Against Non-Mormons Oh, the courts do… Now I see it. Considering the zeitgeist here has been Prop. 8, I figured another news story detailing Mormon discrimination might be of interest.
It’s Official: Mormonism is not a Protestant Religion

Someone (other than Mormons) Criticizes Marriott
I caught this story in the local paper today about a bunch of conservative Christians (no Mormons were mentioned specifically) criticizing the Marriott hotel chain for providing porn in the hotels. The critics of the hotel specifically suggested that the hotel chain was hypocritical for peddling porn but claiming ‘wholesome…
Can Mormonism change?
I’ve been debating my brother about some issues surrounding same-sex marriage on my blog (no link; still trying to remain anonymous). In the course of that debate, a few ideas popped up that I think people here might enjoy. This is a good one having to do with religions changing….
Church guilty in New Zealand
Okay, it’s a slow news week. There are about 5,000 stories about the “Mormon Missionary Calendar Creater Getting Axed,” but not much else going on in Mormondom. I did catch this article, though. This is one of those “sex offender tells religious leaders who cover it up” situations. This guy…
I’m too sexy for my religion!
Big shocker here, folks. The creater of the Mormons Exposed calendar is being hauled into a “court of love” over his calendar. Apparently topless Mormon missionaries are too much for the LDS leadership. This is a great opportunity for another shameless plug for my latest pet theory about the LDS…
