SOME THINGS I HAVE LEARNED BY BEING GAY AND MORMON

January 2, 2013 Robin Johnson1

SOME THINGS THAT I HAVE LEARNED One thing that I have learned is: although Gay people are born gay; when gays have gone through the process of: first denial, then self-loathing and other steps, and finally acceptances; then Gay people are ready to move on to healthy relationships.  Another thing that I have learned is: […]

OUR MANIFESTO: THE TIME HAS COME

January 1, 2013January 1, 2013 Robin Johnson0

I Robin Lee Johnson and my boyfriend George Allen Circle have made a decision. We will no longer debate the issue of homosexuality in the Mormon Church or any Christian church with anyone. We will no longer engage the biblical ignorance that emanates from so many right-wing Christians about how the Bible condemns homosexuality, as […]

David Twede and looking for a powerpoint

September 21, 2012September 21, 2012 profxm3

Apparently LDS Inc. isn’t fond of MormonThink.com. David Twede, the lead editor there, is being summoned for a disciplinary council September 30th. Since I don’t live too far away, I’m happy to go protest. Feel free to think of other creative ways to express your thoughts on this. Also, apparently some LDS leaders are walking […]

Connected Mormonism

December 16, 2010December 16, 2010 Hellmut30

It has become a platitude among journalists to refer to Internet communities as echo chambers that induce confirmation bias. In the good old days, goes the reasoning, everybody had to watch the same three network news and we were all on the same page, at least, with regard to the facts. I am sorry but […]

RE: The Sinister Entity Behind the Christian Facade of Mormonism?

January 30, 2010January 30, 2010 profxm22

So, this article in OpEdNews popped up in my Google News alerts today: The Sinister Entity Behind the Christian Facade of Mormonism. It’s by a guy named Douglas A. Wallace, who appears to be an embittered ex-Mormon who actually had a rather prominent position at some point in the past – mission architect (per his […]

Sunday in Outer Blogness: Truth and Consequences Edition!

September 13, 2009November 9, 2011 chanson3

The big news this week is John Remy‘s excommunication for apostasy!! And he’s not the only one who’s feeling the heat this week for disbelieving and/or criticizing the LDS church. The crap has hit the fan and set off a whirlwind of drama, accusations, and letters of condemnation from Hypatia’s mother. Daniel is also responding […]

An Open Letter to the LDS Church

September 13, 2009September 14, 2009 Robert7

I was riveted by the fascinating tale of excommunication from the Mormon church, over at Mind on Fire, told with great honesty and feeling, as well as by the reader community response. I have just one question, though, which I suppose should be directed to the Mormon church itself: Where’s my lousy excommunication? I did […]

Oldies but Goodies: Testimony of a Dissident

September 10, 2009October 20, 2010 Hellmut7

A while back another blogger asked me to submit an essay about my Mormon experience. Probably, for good reasons he changed his mind and never published it. Since it is already written and might shed some light on my argument at Times and Seasons, I might as well publish it myself. It might help some […]

Thoughts on John R’s Excommunication

June 13, 2009September 7, 2010 chanson16

So, another LDS-nonbeliever is getting ex’d for blogging! First there was simian, whose excommunication caused quite a stir in the Bloggernacle at the time (though I can’t find the relevant posts anymore — I think they were on an earlier incarnation of his blog, which he has deleted). Now it’s John R’s turn! His wife […]
