Mormon Church Tries To Pass Off Anti-LGBT Bigotry as April Fools Joke: The Secrets Out, THEY STILL HATE US
The Mormon church is severely triggering some of my severe PTSD, because today they made an announcement as being a great breakthrough, and welcoming of LGBTQIA People. It most definitely is not in any way. I can tell you, as a Bishop in the Mormon Church, when I came out, most of the members are abhorrent bigots. They deliberately map out the cities for missionaries to tract only in highly favorable GOP neighborhoods, the more wealthy, and mostly homeowners. They deliberately exclude the more diverse neighborhoods from any chance of ever hearing their version of the gospel, or chance to join their church.
The demographics are completely rigged, and contrived, so that the overwhelming majority of possible members, are those most favorable to their bigotry. But still, their heinously bigoted proclamation 3 years ago, that attacked, and singled out LGB TQIA People for exclusion, alienation, and sanctioned hate, has gotten millions of Mormons to second guess their religion, and became enlightened to the forked tongues machinating maleficence through *counterfeit love*.
I have 3 daughters....they were commanded to have counterfeit love towards me, their Father. They were commanded to utterly reject and hate me. You can't imagine the intense pain in my heart this has caused me. I haven't heard from any of them or talked to them now, for 6 years, since I came out.
The LD$'s 3 Year Long April Fools Joke, about proclaiming through a direct revelation from the mouth of God, that children of LGBTQIA families cannot be baptized until they reach 18, and then, only if they renounce, reject, and severely repudiate their Queer Family.....and then today announcing that 3 years later, it was all an **April Fools Joke**, and that the previous revelation from the **Hand** of God, was actually a great big lie, and we really just pulled that out of our backsides....is the epitome of a *clusterfolk*, or how not to be a religion.
That counterfeit policy, commanding members to have counterfeit love for their own family members, directly caused the deaths of thousands of people, and consequently the church is bleeding hundreds of thousands of members.....that's the real reason they announced they were merely *joking around*, and what they said was not real then, now, or ever. Sadly, it was a sideways move, though. The LD$ still announced they are all-in to complete and utter *exclusion* of LGBTQIA people, with their hateful Cisgender-Heterosexual Supremacism, and Xenophobia.

Meanwhile, in Utah, they just now legalized sex before marriage. A law they never followed except as a guise for the so called 'law of chastity'. In all truth, 90% of the population should have been jailed for fornication, if they went by their asinine law. The fact is, all LGBTQIA can all now follow their Law of Chastity, by getting married, and having all their ***Queer as Folk*** sex, all within the bounds of marriage. So when Queer Marriage became the law of the land, the church should have kept all LGBTQIA People inside the Plan of Happiness......but it was never about the 'Law of Chastity'....rather, it was all about trying to *hide* their utter bigotry in **secret combinations**, like the Cult of Korihore.
And they actually claim their *stuff* don't stink, because they have abdicated their brains, because, **triumphalism*. The sure sign of a cult. I am so grateful that Community of Christ abdicated Triumphalism decades ago. Thank you so much, otherwise there is absolutely no way I would ever consider being here.

The Mormon Church Goes Sideways of Cis-Het Supremacy: Goes All-In to Hateful Bigotry
https://www.sltrib.com/religion/2019/04/04/lds-church-dumps-its/?fbclid=IwAR2g7OgCo1bkWwdeHPtU_WQcxWBKU6eIkpERxQLeirtVziREgpA26-pOg0c
What a crock of crap. This *cult* is trying to tell us they are getting these commandments directly from God, and that for 4 years God wanted LGBT people to suffer in Outer Darkness (mormon hell), and experience hell-on-earth, with church-wide maleficent intentions toward LGBT people. Make no mistake, the church, was, is now, and ever will be, malevolent toward all LGBT people. The are an exclusivist pile of crap.
What God sees as right, has always been right. God does not suddenly change their mind, and say, "Oh, the last thing I told you, ya, I was just kidding about that". All bigotry is always wrong and purely man made evil. No bigotry is God invented. Make no mistake, Cis-Gender Supremacy, Hetero-Supremacy, Xenophobia, Exclusionism, Alienationism, Apostacy-labeling, are all heinously evil bigotries invented by the machinations of sadistically vile, repugnant, and evil White Men.
So they made a sideways move on the Queer Community. Whoop-de-do! They still suck proverbial manure. This improves the lives of no one. It is so clear they made this side shift to assuage the members who are on the verge of leaving the cult, to stay. Mormon LD$ is hemorrhaging hundreds of thousands of members, and the tens of Millions of dollars they pay in tithing, precisely because of the Hate, Bigotry, and Bull-Crap Policies these Rich, White, Legacied, old Men are pulling out of their abhorrently hateful **backsides**.
Mormonism is a human pariah. Out of 240 Nations on Earth, **only 73** still hold to the wrongful machinations of bigoted men, that being ****Cis-Het Supremacism****. Mormonism is a world Laggard when it comes to the truth, and *beneficence*. A majority of Faiths, and Religions, have thrown off their bigotry-baggage. Atheism, and Agnosticism have never bought into the **Cult** of Bigotry Perpetration, so they have always known more of God's **truth** than every last one of the Churches than held to anti-LGBTQIA ideas, and doctrine.
I openly spit in the face of this machination, intending to bring favor, and a substantial reduction in world-wide resentment toward LD$, as a *Jump the Shark* moment. I'm so over you. I finally see you for what you are....A Cult of Supremacism, of Cliques, and Klans....the Church of "MY SHIT DON'T STINK". The best wisdom I have ever gotton from anyone, was my father, a Holocaust Survivor, when he told me, "Never associate yourself with any person, place, thing, or entity, that holds to the axiom of **My Shit Don't Stink**." The Mormons think their Shit Don't Stink....they are Shitting **You**, and continue to make every effort to do so.

Reconciling Violence, Terrorism, and War: a Path Forward
We should all be well aware that America is most decidedly *not* the standard bearer of human rights, justice, and freedom. In fact, I believe we are a serious laggard in all 3 areas. America is the guilty party in 2 of the most bloody Genocides in human history, that of exterminating over 100 Million North American Aboriginal People, and at least 40 Million Africans. Neither of those people's have freedom in America, to this very day. If anything, America has far more to atone for than anyone in Europe does.
This week I embark on a trip, which is for the purpose of attending a Triennial World Conference, for my church. There will be many things to celebrate and rejoice in, many friends to meet for the first time, as well as new friends to make. What makes me truly excited to be attending for my first time, and also as a voting delegate. We will be voting on many resolutions, some of which will, after much deliberation, become doctrine and/or policy. One resolution in particular grabs my attention. It is one that rejects all forms of , Violence, including acts of terrorism, war, and financing wars". What is to be rejected here....what is objectionable? The failure to pass, explicitly and publicly proclaims that we are for those horrible things. Do we need to be reminded that America has not won a war in nearly 75 years. It is not a fluke. There has not been a justifiable war America has been involved in since. Granted there has been justifiable war, but America chose not to enter those.
But the fact that America is involved in perpetrating more than 36 wars all over the world right now, and contemplating several coup-de-etat's, i.e. Venezuela, utilizing methods of terrorism, and drones, to bomb civilian populations, and the United States spends 75 cents of every dollar of Public Money, on it's Military Industrial Complex. These wars are being perpetrated in yours and my name, whether we agree with them or not. Would Jesus have us support these things? I think not.
There is nothing about this that is anti Military Service. As I stated, I served in the Army, and all my siblings have served in every branch of the Military. My Father is a Holocaust Survivor, and always explained to me war is evil, barbaric, and wrong, always. We have to be very morally justified to ever enter into another war, and commit barbarism.
Certainly there is no one in this church that can, with a straight face, stand up and say they are for, and support terrorism, in any way shape or form. It is unequivocally the most un-Godly act that can ever be perpetrated. Violence Against the Earth, is another important issue addressed in the resolution. America is 4% of World population, raping the world, primarily the Southern hemisphere, of 60% of the worlds resources That is unjust, and immoral, and cannot stand in perpetuity. We stand by and acquiesce to Fossil Fuel Companies rape the Rain Forest, and commit genocide against indigenous people. That cannot be supported, or allowed to stand.
Ideologies of Injustice and/or violence, is a no brainer. If we can't openly agree that things such as, but not limited to; nationalism, white-nationalism,populism, racism, bigotry, sexism, classism, colonialism, imperialism, homophobia, transphobia, and xenophobia are out and out evil, abhorrent, and wrong, then we are doomed. We're talking Nazism/ Fascism. The Church cannot be seen as being *for* these things.
Finally, the best part of the resolution: we support a global, ecumenical, and interfaith actions, toward Justice and Peace ***For-All***. I love it. This is one of the most well thought, ecumenical, peace-loving, Christ-Like resolutions I have ever seen in my life. I for one, am fully on board, and have every intention to vote for this, and I hope you'll join me, in wrestling the earth from fools, and making heaven a place on earth.
My church will be discussing many things, and I accept, and celebrate that our church uses a consensus form of dialogue before making any declarative statements. I agree with that. I just hope that I won't be alone in voting my heartfelt conscience, in what I know in my discernment of how to be a disciple of our creator God. I am always eager to dialogue with people, and make the world a better place. Please pray for me, do express the will of God, in a fair and honorable manner.

Open Letter to People of Faith: Why we shouldn't wait for perfect agreement to build a better world
I've been thinking a lot about this lately. How are we, as a people of faith, supposed to move forward, in the process of building a better world for all people. Can we be building Zion/ Making Heaven a Place on Earth, for the greatest number of people here and now....just make a start, and tweak it and make it better all the time, or do we have time consuming dialogues with esoteric deadlines, in the decades of the future. The former argues in the vein of, " never let perfection be the enemy of the good", that waiting for all sides to perfectly agree, will likely never happen, in the mean-time, tangible real people are suffering, maybe dying. So it is better to get started on policies that progress a population into beneficent understandings of making the lives of people better. The latter argues, that Perfection must be striven for, and come as close as possible to it, before even whispering about changes in policy. This is favored out of a fear that some people will face harmful, malevolent repercussions if an entity makes an effort to make the lives of it's people better.
I will acknowledge that neither side has all the marbles, so to speak. No one has a monopoly on what is right. Although, I will always hold firm to the belief that, what is right now is always right, and what is right now, should be fought for now, and not waited for. We know there is malevolence, and harm, and death now, so why wait to make things better. Some argue that an entity that holds policies close to Zionic life-building for its people, that some of its members will be sanctioned, by the government of that country. In many cases, the people of that country may already be suffering terribly, even without any membership entity taking a stand, unpopular to a particular regime.
I will focus the remainder of my comments regarding the particular position of a need for a Global perspective, yet being unwilling to allow proclamations of being against terror, and being for LGBTQIA people, and Transgender People specifically.
And by all means, we should have policies against torture, kidnapping, drones, terror, assault-weapons, coup-de-etat's, Christian Supremacy, Nationalism, and Fascism.

I will focus the remainder of my comments regarding the particular position of a need for a Global perspective, yet being unwilling to allow proclamations of being against terror, and being for LGBTQIA people, and Transgender People specifically.
The thing is, what is right is always right. Things don't suddenly become right, because any entity, or nation says they just became right, **for themselves**. How long should we all be acquiescent to the wrong, oppressive, and prejudicial, of laws, and policies, for the sake of coddling a handful of  nations, and their bigoted laws. It is their bigoted laws that are hurting and killing people, not the positions of a people of faith, or of any beneficent group.
We should advocate for the enlightenment of their laws, rather than impede our own policies that would save the lives of many people here, and many people throughout the world. Are the lives of people living in more enlightened countries less valuable, than those in less enlightened? No matter where we fall, or what we vote, blood ***will*** be on our hands. To be asked to acquiesce to a status quo, that does, in fact, harm and kill people, has no more intrinsic value, or moral, than furthering the cause of Zion, now. In fact, I would argue, it is a failure of humanity, and, a true International perspective.
I'm talking about soft-peddling the issue of the Policy Planks proposed for adoption at Conference, by Canada, Australia, and Europe, that publicly proclaim Terrorism to be wrong, and evil and are so right for a Peace, Justice, and a Radically Inclusive Church, but are planned to be curtailed, and silenced. Supposedly because some third world nations laws are against them, and our Church members can't be seen as being associated with them.
In no way am I trying to state that U.S. Laws have anything to do with enlightened human rights. We are, in fact, a human rights laggard, but the Church should be in ***front*** of a Nations laws, and not behind them.
In regards to LGBTQIA Human Rights, I feel equally strong, that the Church should be the Vanguard of Human Rights, and never behind, or an *after the party* laggard in response to acknowledging the truth of Doctrinal beliefs, which should be aligned with what a Creator God sees as Just, and not *cow* to the genocidal, detrimental, and decidedly maleficent, beliefs, policies, and laws, of nations, and churches.
I say again, people are dying, because we as a Church (and a nation), cannot bring itself to unequivocally, and undeniably state precisely, that LGBTQIA people are "born of their mothers womb",(Matt 9:12) and not only have a seat at the table, but are an invaluable part of God's plan, and have full-standing in the Church, eligible for all priesthood callings, and sacraments. We still do not say this. We still do not say that being Transgender is *not* a choice, we are born this way, for a sacred purpose, and that we can marry the person we love, be it a woman, man, or non-binary person.
The intentional *vaguery* surrounding LGBTQIA people in the Church, pertaining to members, potential members, and missionary work, does claim lives. Cowing to the Un-Godly human rights of any nation, leaves blood on all our hands. 
And by all means, we should have policies against torture, kidnapping, drones, terror, assault-weapons, coup-de-etat's, Christian Supremacy, Nationalism, and Fascism.
