the one thing I'll always love about mormon masculinity is that we will not be having any of that "haha I hate my wife" shit. the male general authorities set the example every single conference of saying "I love my wife, she's the best person I know, I'm the most lucky man who ever lived, every time we disagree I'm usually wrong because she's wiser and I've learned so much from her," etc. oaks was like "I'm releasing these men. give them and their wives a vote of thanks." the message to every man is to celebrate and appreciate the women he knows, not put them down.

The Church's gravitation towards Evangelical ideology is the worst thing that's ever happened to it. At least in 1800's Missouri we died confident in our faith as my ancestors were hunted for sport; now it's rotting us inside out as the far right deceive the very elect into the kind of wickedness that makes floods happen.

Elder Kearon’s talk really summarizes why I’m still a believer, because our theology is so forgiving, so open, so universalist, so tender. The God of our theology is constantly giving us chances to come back, to come to Him, to learn, to improve. He doesn’t turn anyone away. He wants us back so much that he even has plans in place for us to grow and learn and join the right path after we die! We get so many chances to mess up and pick ourselves up and try again! It’s such a hopeful, welcoming message.

I love the Mormons and LDS community crawling out of the woodwork into my notifications like little mice twice a year.

Criticizing the church and the culture around it, is how it will improve. So no I won't stop. And I will argue that is a mark towards my integrity not against it.

Our Heavenly Father is more liberal in His views, and boundless in His mercies and blessings, than we are ready to believe or receive.

"we're grateful that Jeffery R. Holland isn't dead yet" is a WILD thing to say in a prayer

oh this is so beautiful. "some people feel happiest without religion, and I respect these feelings. God has filled this earth with delightful things so that all his children may have as much happiness as possible. BUT there could be something more by following Jesus Christ. try it out" it's so lovely and respectful I love him

I don't wanna think celestial, I wanna live celestial
I wanna help build a society without poverty, where we recognize the divinity within all members of our human family, and I wanna build it here in this world rather than being preoccupied with the next

I’m kinda obsessed with this talk. It’s the first one I’ve actually gotten to listen to, and it’s like he’s speaking to me. God won’t turn me away just because I’m trans, gay, etc, he wants me there specifically and infinitely. His plan is not about roadblocks, it’s about salvation and acceptance
