Mormons tend to be nice … to your face. As soon as you leave they’re likely to act like you’d expect followers of an extremely socially conservative, regressive, patriarchal religion would.
And I’m not saying all Mormons are like that – there are good people that are mormons, but it’s in spite of what the church teaches about gender, sexuality, and sin.
Nothing about the religion’s teachings about gender, sexuality, and sin support mistreatment of people who believe or act differently. The broad strokes your applying to the entire religion is exactly the same as saying that all Muslims are violent terrorists just because of the actions of an extremist few.
In short, it’s bigotry.
Huh. I thought it was because I’m familiar with LDS teachings, culture, and the church’s extensive, sordid, and recent history of sexism, abuse, and bigotry.
Which is extensively documented by people that have left the faith.
You linked exmormon.org? That’s one of the most vitriolic and biased websites dedicated to spreading hate about members of the Church. It’s clear you’re strongly prejudiced, so there’s no point in me trying to convince you to look beyond your own animosity.
Good day.
