Well the internet is abuzz as April 2019 General conference draws to a close.
Apparently the wizzedmagott gave up on all other forms and sorts of combatting mass apostasy from the church and decided in stead to settle for the age old tactic of scaring the living shit out of the membership.
This came to a head today with the speech by Russell M Nelson's address telling members in no uncertain terms that apostates and leavers are ruining the afterlife for everyone by being so selfish as to not love their families enough to want to be with them for eternity.
The effect of this atrocious and evil speech has been 3fold.
First the people at the free legal service for resigning Mormons saw the highest communication ever on a Sunday or any other afternoon with literally thousands of resignations being logged in.
Second advice boards being flooded with people being threatened by family members such as parents and spouses with divorce, eviction etc. unless they "stop being selfish" and come back to church.
Third and most worrying a plague of attacks on ex Mormon members and an businesses threatening them with death and damnation if they don't repent and come back to church.
The church has gone in to all out panic mode, are literally battening down the spiritual hatches and gone full on Isolationist cult.

They have one to many m's in their name. They should be called Morons. πŸ˜›

Have you ever felt that if you started speaking that the dam would burst and all the resentment would come spilling out?! And Loathing and the ugliest part of yourself would just spew forth upon the land? That about sums it up.

Not cool to reply to myself but I guess that sort of addresses the ugliest part bit

Some of my Facebook friends are practicing Mormons that I grew up with. I’ve noticed an uptick in posts from them that are LDS related. It makes me think that it’s been suggested to them that they do this. Am I just imagining this?

No there are internet missionaries (they join ex-mo groups and try to break them up from within, they also repost other members to their local stakes, MOST ARE SO INEPT YOU CAN SPOT THEM A MILE AWAY) and there is also a programme of encouragement to to use the net as a missionary tool with family and friends etc.
