confessionsofoncer the problem is that these ideas are taught by the church and it’s leaders. “With faith, I will strengthen my home and family, make and keep sacred covenants, and receive the ordinances and blessings of the holy temple.” This phrase is what you will spend 6 years of your life repeating once or twice a week as a young woman. Then you have leaders using manuals that, mostly, teach how to be a mother and wife. How to take care of the house and kids. As well as how you should keep you virginity for your husband and not do anything with anyone till you are married to them. Rarely do they talk about careers and how to improve yourself that doesn’t involve a future husband and children. So yeah it’s the members but it isn’t their own ideas, they were taught by those before so they continue to teach it.

My first thoughts of leaving was when I was 13 and during Young Womens, I mentioned I didn’t want to have kids, and my teacher looked me dead in the eyes and said “your future children are looking down on you from heaven and are very disappointed in you.” I’ve since realized I’m asexual lmao

Wow, your young women leader freaking sucks. I can tell you right now, my leaders would NEVER say something like that. In fact, if some KID said something rude like that, my leader would definitely get mad at them. I remember this one time some kid said something bad about gays, and my leader kindly lectured him. I just hate how so many people commenting on this video think that Mormons are toxic. Our church literally teaches not to judge and to be loving. Some members of the church are simply just idiots, and they're not doing what the prophets asked. I will admit, my mom kind of got angry with me a year ago when I also said that I didn't want to have kids, but I guess that's just because she's my mom. She wants her grandchildren. That's changed now, however. I REALLY want to have kids. I would be heartbroken if I couldn't. It would be hard to have kids, but it'd all be worth it. But hey, it's okay if you don't feel the same way, Your leader had no good reason to talk to you that way. I bet most girls in that room also thought she was being ridiculous.

The pressure to convert to LDS is pretty strong… my entire dad’s side of the is Mormon, most of my friends are Mormon… So interesting and sad to hear the struggles felt by those that had to leave to church and feel all the exclusiveness that comes with it. I send my love to you all ❤️

I grew up in Utah with a family that never taught me any religion unless for cultural awareness. The pressure really is high to convert and it comes to a point that people have tried to convert me since I was a kid that now I just can't care. I did have someone very rudely try to convert me in my own apartment last year (the person who invited him in wasn't even there) even after I asked him to leave me alone several times.

Actually they are right. The word that is translated into the English word "wine" in the Bible usually do means grape juice, and not the alcoholic beverage we now know as wine. And back in those days it's actually impossible to ferment wine to the level of alcohol that we have today (today's wine have the alcohol level of close to 20%), back then the alcoholic wine rarely goes above 10% due to the nature of yeast that is available. So yeah the wine in the bible most likely do refer to grape juice.

I was raised mormon. My sister was slapped across the face as a child for saying "oh my god!" My mom was slapped across the face for saying the bible was like a big journal with multiple authors (a good analogy, I thought). I was told at 8 years old that I was going to hell because my mom let me listen to music by a gay musician. When my grandparents found out my mom was getting married to a jewish man, they yelled at her and belitlled her in the middle of a restaurant saying "You cant marry a jew! The jews killed god!!" That man is my dad now. The fact that I am part of the LGBTQ+ community, that my fiance is african american, that I have a tattoo, that I struggle with mental health... these are all things for which I am judged, frowned upon, and gossiped over within the church. I left the church when I was 12 years old. The mormon church made me feel like a dirty sinner for simply existing, and that is wrong through and through. They claim that god loves all his children, yet exclude anyone who is different from them. I don't believe in a god, but if there is one, I am sure he would never approve of this behavior.

i was raised mormon, and i remember in seminary class the teacher had us write anonymous questions that would be drawn from a jar and answered throughout the course, and my question was about being queer, and my teacher, god bless him, he said that queerness isnt wrong, and as long as you follow the gospel and remain chaste (no smoochy smooch, premarital sex, which is a touchy subject but ill get to that). that god will love and accept you. outside of the whole virginity thing- it was really amazing to have someone in a position of influence tell me that what i was feeling wasnt wrong, and that as long as i was kind to myself ill be okay. again, the virginity thing is a whole other can of worms, but im so thankful for that seminary teacher. also suprisingly, a lot of my straight mormon friends are either queer, or allies, even my peers were very accepting. while they were largely uneducated about the lgbtq community as a whole, they weren't against it. its nice to see healing take place and to see somewhere become safer for us :)

Okay, current member, that's the crappiest bull that I've ever heard. That is not what we stand for. I'm so sorry they treated you like this. I'd apologize for them, but frankly, though I try not to make judgements, based on that, they are not real Mormons, and I can't even I identify with any of their crap. I'm sorry you had to endure that. I'm my belief system though, they get to have fun explaining their actions to God, so they get to deal with that fun time.

I was a member of the LDS church for over a year in the early 2000's and got married in the temple. My experience was one of pressure to conform that is so severe that it supersedes any sense of decency, objective morality, or compassion. My sister-in-law had clear symptoms of mental illness and coninciding medical issues making her unable to conceive. she was pressured by the temple to adopt FOUR children. for the entire time i knew them, she spent almost every waking moment in bed, isolated from the children whilst her husband was at work (neglecting them). Also in that one year, that temple abandoned a teen missionary in south America, refusing to even pay his way home when he was found out as homosexual on his mission, and 2 children were sent to conversion camps for "suffering from same-sex attraction".

Then I got sexually assaulted by another member when I was 16, so I gave up on it entirely because if they can judge me for being bisexual and not being perfect they should sure as hell judge others for being predators

I grew up with my abusive great aunt who took me and my sister to Mormon church every Sunday. I’m not straight so that was definitely a factor but there are things that church did that creeped me out. There was a big meeting where these 12 people said Jesus would come and talk to them and tell them what to tell the church. The 12 people believed they were the incarnations of the apostles and that they were the only ones who could hear Jesus speaking. I don’t really think it had anything to do with faith, rather than getting everyone to worship the hell out of those guys. They were all really nice on the outside but most of them beat the shit out of their children when they got home. I remember them trying to baptize me and for some reason I had the urge to run away as fast as I could. It was weird. I refused, of course but my sister got baptized. She’s always gave me weird vibes since then. Not to be one of those people but something about that place gave me the creeps as a kid. I stopped going around age 12 and my great aunt has since disowned me for being a disgrace to her family. It is what it is but that church is somewhere I’m never going back to.

I just want you to know that Mormons are definitely a minority. Many people will go against our church and throw stones at us because we hold ourselves to a higher standard. We teach to doubt our doubts before we doubt our faith because if you doubt everything you believe in you'll never have the truth. I know it may be difficult taking the road less traveled, but you will most likely find joy and peace in trying to be your best self. Our gospel doesn't teach to have any hatred or judgement for anyone. I hope that whatever you decide, you will pray about it. God won't lead you astray.

Also they believe God was a man that became God and they believe they can become like him , they believe Jesus wasn’t conceived by Holy Ghost by rather there was an act of physical intimacy . Also believe Jesus has multiple wives They believe Jesus and S a t a n are siblings . They believe God is from another planet . It’s a false religion , a total sham

I was Mormon and very musical, and the “funny” one. My Mormon peers and leaders absolutely loved me and I had a lot of friends. I came out privately to my family as bisexual, and no one in my church knew. That was until I went to a school dance with a girl, and after I did, I was completely isolated. No one talked to me. No one cared when I didn’t come to church. My Mormon youth group church leader who used to love me left a letter at my house that said I was going down the wrong path and that she was very concerned for me and that satan had his grip on me. I literally lost all of my church friends overnight. That showed me how fake the friendship and support is. You have to be cookie cutter Mormon, or appear to be or else you are isolated or treated differently. I now have REAL friends who won’t leave overnight because I literally slow danced with someone of the same sex.

There’s such a nasty toxicity within the culture of the church that make it feel culty when it’s really not intended to be that way. People also have strong rules for themselves they try to pass off as doctrine on everyone else. I’m disgusted that the bishop asked her that about her gf.

As a person who grew up in Utah, in a very mormon, very judgemental community, I find this video incredibly relatable. My family and I were never mormon, but growing up in a community that is consistently pressuring us to conform, and then punishing us by exiling us from the community, was an incredibly awful experience. For the longest time I never felt accepted. That is, until I left Utah to seek acceptance and love in my late 20s. All I know is that because of my up-bringing in Utah, with the lack of connection, it really has created deep-rooted trust and connection issues, despite desiring it so much. I love Utah because its beautiful, and my entire family lives there. But im really not sure if I would live there again. If I did, I would intentionally seek out a community with variety in beliefs.

As someone who is active in the church, watching this video and reading everyone's experiences in the comment section has been very interesting. Even as an LGBTQ+ youth who is at war with addiction, I would say I've had a lot better experience than most who are also LGBTQ+ and/or addicted, etc. It's very true that it feels very black and white (you're either right or you're either wrong) and shame/guilt definitely comes with it. Lots of LDS people you find really are "holier than thou" and ridiculously close-minded, but I've also been privileged to have (mostly) absolutely amazing people around me and the resources I need to recover. I could not ask for a better bishop and a handful of my peers are also queer and/or struggle with a "serious sin", as the church puts it, which is extremely helpful in my experience since we understand one another to a personal degree Above all, It's the place I feel closest to God and is the number one and strongest reason I'm sticking around. I understand how lucky I am to have what I have and my heart goes out to those who don't/didn't have a good experience. I support anyone's decision to leave the church and I hope that anyone who did is doing alright

Thank you so much for saying that. People need to realize that just because YOU had a bad experience, doesn't mean that the whole church is bad. The church was 100% founded on love, and I strongly believe that. The way you are being treated as a queer person is exactly how members of the church should treat you. Members have 100% been taught to be accepting, and for those who aren't, they're just intolerant losers. I just really love what you said about why you want to stick around. You should always be in the place where you feel closest and most loved by God. You're much wiser and much stronger for not leaving the church. Instead of leaving something because you have a problem with it, first you should try to understand that policy first. There are many things that I questioned, but after researching a bit, my opinions totally changed. People need to realize that God is wiser than them. I'm glad that the church is a place that you can feel loved. It should be. BTW, I like your profile pic. IDK, I just think its kind of funny.

As someone who is still within this church, I think this video was very well done and I highly respect these people for talking about these issues. I wonder how many of these people are from Utah or areas like that because I’ve noticed since coming to school in Utah people really do take the culture to the extreme and particularly at BYU (as opposed to church members outside Utah). Homophobia and pressure to conform is a big problem here (and throughout the church) and there is a serious need for change. I commend these people for seeking to live happy and good lives and coming forward with their stories, as well as their kindness and respect towards those still living the religion.

I feel like in Utah almost everyone who is in the church is super kind, a lot of my friends are lds. However, some falter for a moment in that when they realize you aren't or that you may disagree with some of their beliefs. Also with teachers interacting with students they're in the same ward as it makes you feel left out. I've had multiple people try to save me and friends take me to church when I wad younger. I think it's good to have the church and I envy the fact people can put so much faith into one thing like that, but I do think in Utah it goes to a bit of an extreme. Like you said it is a bit more close minded, almost like a cliché highschool clique, and no one talks about it.

I agree with this whole heartedly as another member of the church. We are taught to accept every one and to "love first, ask questions later", but in utah that isn't really practiced all that well.

If it is of any comfort (don't know if the word is correct here) you're not a bad person nor do I think that ex mormons are bad people :) I have many friends who are ex Mormons (because gays, transgender or just not agreeing with the church ) and we are still hanging out ! (Plus my brother is also an ex mo and since he is now covered in tattoos people assume he is the black sheep but nah he's the coolest) Being in a religion doesn't protect you from being a bad person. There are bad people everywhere just like good people. I agree with Kai that love is what matter. And in fact he convinced me that what I like in the church is most of all the love that I have felt and the occasion of service (in food banks and shelters, the sense of community for example). It was a feeling I had since a really long time but now I definitely can put words on it. I know that every church and situation is different, ( my ex mormon friends were not kicked out of their home for their sexuality and gender identity and we are very close for example but there are still people in the case of Kai who are shunned out there because they are "bad" -eventhough the teachings say very clearly that family comes first 😧 ) however I really hope that you are surrounded by people who don't think you are bad and love you :) ❤ Hope my message made sense since English is not my first language lol 😅

Several of my friends I found out to be Mormon only after I got to know them really well. Just like only my closest friends find out I'm a closet vegan. They've always appeared to be completely normal and functional in regular society. I never felt judged for things I may have said to them or done around them when I was not aware of who I was in the presence of. Religion never even came up once until we were invited to these "fun" nights. Where the kids would get together and make crafts, pinewood derby races, hair styling classes. They seem happy. Very loving and understanding with their children who are obviously growing up in a world where these old values do not apply. And I don't see how they're hurting anyone. They've certainly never hurt me. So I keep them as friends. I wouldn't want to shut anyone out the way they might be shut out of their society.

There are disabled people that look fine and can walk fine, but sometimes they're so weak they need a wheelchair. Sometimes they can't even sit straight. But you can't see that if you see them on their good day. Lots of people think "hey, you're not disabled, why do you need that wheelchair?"

A lot of my issues include being anti lgbtq+, if you have sex before marriage you’re a sinner. They make you feel bad for doing things like drinking tea and coffee.

When I left the mormon church officially about a year ago. The leaders of the kids told the kids not to play with my kids anymore. My neighbors also stopped talking to me. When my husband parents found out they drove over two hours to yell at us for our terrible decisions and how could we put future generations at risk of not having salvation.

I'm surprised they didn't talk so much about how much lower women are treated in the LDS church. One of the things that made me so angry as a child growing up in the church was the fact that boys/men were almost always forgiven of their sins and were not to be looked down on because they had "repented", but women were always still looked at as that sin no matter how much they had "repented" . For example: I kissed a boy (not even because I wanted to, he tricked me) and I was considered a SLUT because I was 13 instead of 16. But many boys I grew up with kissed girls before they were 16 , lost their virginity before they were 18 but were still allowed to go on a LDS Mission. But I don't know many girls that had sex before marriage who go on a LDS Mission.

Exactly! As a small child growing up in the church I was always pissed that "my brothers are allowed to get their own planets, but I'm not!". My younger sister and I looked up to our older brother so much but were always told that we would never amount to anything close to him. We were always told that our job was to support and praise the men. I was expected to get married at 18 and have as many babies as my husband wanted. Total sexist bull shit.

I left the church at 13 years old, which wasn't an easy task with two very devout parents. It was the best decision I've ever made. My family members always discuss how I'll never be "truly" happy without the church, that I am evading divine happiness that they wish for me. I've heard lots of similar threats from other LDS parents, so if anyone that is considering leaving the church is reading this - I promise you can have a happy and fulfilled life without the teachings of the gospel. In my opinion, its liberating to not always be accountable to a higher power, I choose to be a good person, to be kind, generous, forthcoming and virtuous because thats who I am and who I want to be, not being a divine power said I have to "or else".

At thirteen it is a hard age. Many changes are going through our lives. We feel that we are invincible and accountable to no one. I used to feel that until a friend said to me, one day we will be held to account, so if you can guarantee yourself that you will be alive at the end of the day, keep doing what you're doing. If not, know that there is still time to prepare to meet God who you will give an account of your life. I pray that you will know that God loves you and all his children and he wants the best for us. He does have a plan for all of us and it is a plan of happiness. I hope you will listen to the message because it's not a message of rules but a message of hope and piece. The Lord said in the scriptures, "I the Lord am bound when you do what I say, but when you do not what say, you have no promise. God bless you Sister and hope that you will find joy in your journey.

So I am a recent returned Missionary for the church, and out of all places I served, I went to Provo Utah. Utah is the heart of our church and when I tell you that while I witnessed so much polarity there in terms of deeming what a “good Mormon should be”, I really did. I think a majority of the toxicity of our church is our cultures fixation on being perfect, and it’s in our older generation that is what is instilling that within us. I’ve seen and talked with people inside and out of our church about their horror stories and it really brought to light truly disgusting we are being in the name of being like Christ. I realized on my mission that people feel and get closer to God outside of the church, and that all religions have some truth to them. I am still an active member of the church, I love and believe in the basics of our gospel (faith, repentance (when we truly have done something wrong), baptism, etc), but I hope to see a day where we don’t have to be extreme in efforts to stop people from leaving or judgment of others inside and outside of our church.

Exactly this. I grew up in Utah and grew up without any religious influence from my family. I have a friend who's gone to church less, but with some personal relationships they've been struggling because people judge faith based on church attendance and tithing. I've also had my worst experiences with and met the most hateful people that have ever entered my life when they claimed to be the best mormons. I have felt most excluded by them and it's incredibly unfortunate. The pressure also seems to push people away from having faith in the LDS church rather than become a part of. At least from what I've seen growing up in Utah. There is a lot of serious judgement to the point I heard a girl name call another for wearing a dress past her knees because it wasn't past her calf instead. I'm glad that you've found a way to feel close to God and purhaps help others that want to have or keep their faith without passing judgement. It's good to have people like you who are understanding rather than judging. A return missionary I met last year told me directly that he went on his mission with the intent and enjoyment of making others uncomfortable. Your comment was a breath of fresh air for me today. Thank you.
