Grew up in the Church of Jesus Christ and Latter Day Saints and Roman Catholic traditions, including a stint at a Catholic school; somewhat sadly, before the point at which young women (people - not the misogynist Mormon class) wore kilts. Attended church until a teen, but held atheist sentiments from a young age, despite being in a family full of believers. This is a place for my thoughts regarding religion on both a personal level and relating to the world, of which I am a member... And Mormons say journals are a good thing :)

Growing up Gay, Mormon and Bipolar
Because it's Pride, and since it's a powerful testimony of a queer persons experience, I wanted to highlight this video series (first of six)



It leaves me feeling thankful that I was able to remove myself from the church, even before I turned sixteen. There are some Mormons who are nice, however there are many who use doctrine as a veichle and excuse for hate.


For something more upbeat, check out Mormon Erotica
I'm not sure if it's same person who does the Mormon Erotica blog, but both give an interesting look at the church and its sexuality that it attempts to repress (while creating organs that look much like one)
