So I was feeling "Thursdayish"...
Being as I was!
Running from anger makes me that way.
Trying so hard, but failing to
understand?!?
Doctrine as it is...
so changeable to fit your needs?
Wondering if the pain it inflicts is
really our Parents Love?
You say you follow Faith?
but....
From the outside it seems like
something else!
It's the same pain and hurt again ...
So we differ on our understanding.
My eternal Parents love and care.
The sins of the fathers,
and mothers
matter not..,
So agreeing to disagree will not
work this time...
On this one you are just Wrong!
I completely agree. This is simply gay hate. The position it puts children in to not be able to be baptized with their peers, priesthood ordination will hurt at first and then wake them up to how lucky they are not to have to be indoctrinated into this foul cult. To tell an 18 year old to disavow their gay parents is to cause suicide in these young people and terrible pain in their parents. I grew up having to hate a gay relative. Thank heavens I grew out of it, but I remember being told to hate and shun and it is pure evil. This church has become a sexist, bigoted nightmare!
ReplyDeleteI have been reading where a lot of LDS people are furious over this. We were always taught that man will be punished for their own sins and not the sins of the parents. This policy invalidates a core tenant of their faith. So somehow the church just diminished itself entirely due to their hatred. I work with black people every day and to think how they felt for years not being included sickens me. Frankly I wish I had not been included and was able to go back and have a normal childhood without this psycho religion used against me every day. Perhaps my parents would have been more interested in growing me rather than spending my inheritance on the damn church! I'll tell you when I went through the temple I was SHOCKED! I could not believe my family had done this and agreed to this and had been giving all the money and time I desperately needed to be a fully functioning adult...to the building up of the "Kingdom!" I'm to this day angry about it. I have a hard time continuing to love LDS family because they do the same thing...they grow the church and defend the church instead of the families they supposedly love the most. If you send your kid on a mission I can promise you you don't give a crap about your child. Asking your child to work 80 hours a week for free and come home financially dependent on you is evil.
ReplyDeleteOne last thing....I can honestly say that as of right now I fear my LDS family. Why? Because I know I'll be judged...all the time. I know their loyalty is to the hordes of cash and fancy living they hope to have when they die so for "now" they will hurt me. And they will. I've lived it for years. Shunning is real. And it hurts. And I can't afford the emotional capital to be around them. So glad you are a wonderful father to Ki.
