It helps immature kids find safety in the boundaries set by the community. Then they mature into strong well adjusted adults.

So you try to make people feel welcome...as long as they’re exactly like everyone else.

Homogenous in thought and deed? Have you ever wondered if it only just seems that way because everyone who disagrees shunned? Either that, or they live in silent misery, or leave, or commit suicide. People are different. You cannot force everyone to think and behave one way.

Your god and mine are totally different. And forced celibacy is not an answer. Sex is a biological need, not a fault or moral failure to overcome. When people can’t love who they love without losing their family and community suicide looks like the only answer. Please read The Ghost Children of Mormon Country on…

Well considering the Mormon Church denies same sex marriage and spends money to try to deny the right to marriage for same sex couples while also threatening to excommunicate any transgendered person who undergoes a medical operation, yes they’re bigoted. And now you’re supporting them ignoring the mental health…

So what youre saying is that the Mormon church has entangled itself into just about every facet of life in Utah yet despite that, you are dismissing the very likely possibility that the church itself is to blame for all this tragedy?

“Bigotry is right!”

Utah is sticking their fingers in their ears and screaming “LALALALALALA I CAN’T HEAR YOU YOU DON’T EXIST LALALA JUST DIE ALREADY LALALALA”

Maybe if we don’t measure the gay, it won’t be real.

Church ran.

They are to blame. Telling children god hates them and will deny them their rightful place by his side for something they had no control over is heinous and callous. They will change when they get tired of dead children or we finally ensure separation of church and state.

Can’t believe this story came out today. Our very close friend’s 16 year old nephew killed himself this morning in Salt Lake. No idea whether it had to do with his sexuality but, holy crap, suicide is the leading cause of death for 11 to 16 year olds? Wow.

Way to fucking go Utah. I’m sure unhealthy diets and inadequate exercise are totes contributing to your teen suicide epidemic.

Forgive me if I stole this from someone, but...

To further clarify, the GOP spent the last 7 years trying to repeal ACA/Obamacare because a black liberal president will go down in history as a more effective president than his GOP predecessor and successor.

I think this is pretty spot-on and is something I’ve been saying to folks for years now. It really hit home to me in the closing weeks of the 2012 election during the peak of the “unskew the polls” phenomenon. The rubes were eating this shit up as usual, but then it became obvious that plenty of actual power players…

Baylor: 52 women allege being assaulted by football players? “We need to proceed with caution. In fact, let’s just pretend nothing happened. Remember, we have no obligation to make our campus safe for the students who pay to be here.”

Breitbart’s that-a-way if you’re looking for a website to reaffirm that you are Good and Not Racist At All, instead of being forced to accept that yes, us white people tend to treat non-whites pretty fucking shittily.

It’s always funny and not the least bit surprising when certain white people are confronted by racism and their response basically comes down showing everyone just how racist they are.

“Tropicana Jong-il secured 48 percent of the white vote in the 18-29 age group; Clinton netted 43 percent.”
