‘On Jan. 29, 1863, the U.S. Army murdered an estimated 400 #Shoshone people…
Afterward, #Mormon #settlers dispossessed the Shoshone of their land throughout the Intermountain West. The #tribe wasn’t federally recognized until 1987, and it still lacks reservation land.’

not the sermon coming for my bound behind, lmao.

the person giving the talk was like, "don't do the bare minimum. yeah, you can go to heaven, but we want to be in the presence of God".

how do we do that.

keeping each other accountable and upholding our covenants.

this is theologically sound. old school, but scriptural supported.

but...

sir, you can't just rip of "think celestial" from LDS President RMN and present it as something new, lol. /j

My mom was telling me that the Mormon community where she lives is big into Halloween. Like even more than Christmas. (We're not Mormon.) Is this just a regional thing, or pretty common to the religion as a whole and why?

@wasmormon

Remember that part in the Book of Mormon where Christ reams the apostles for not recording Samuel the Lamanite?

In the nightmare universe where their church is True they will get lectured for everything they did....ever.
