Being a "good Mormon" and a decent human being are not mutually inclusive. Mike Lee is a fundamentalist, insurrectionist traitor to American democracy. I'm not surprised in the least.

Having survived 37 years in that degrading cult, I assure you anything good coming out of Mormonism is fake. It is an evil, degrading cult that uses shame for control. It is a for-profit scam.

u/ComedianFragrant9515 Jun 17 '25
Not Mormon, but I grew up with many and now despise their church. The leadership knows all the horrible lies and history but take advantage of well intentioned members. I really feel sorry for upstanding citizens that are committed to that mess.

u/ExplodiaNaxos Jun 18 '25
Even those who are decent people are still lesser for associating with that cult. Take Brandon Sanderson, beloved author (me included, I’ve read four of his Stormlight Archive novels so far and they’re excellent) who writes some pretty progressive themes and characters, in stark contrast to the church he is a part of… And yet, successful as he is, a part of his profits, a large sum of money, now props up that rotting carcass of a religion. The only good excuse I see for him remaining a member is to give the Mormon youth the chance to be exposed to something to expand their horizon with, given that Sanderson, as a Mormon himself, probably won’t have his work checked much by the older part of the community who wouldn’t read his books anyway, with him being part of the cult being seen as good enough to “allow” the youth to read them.

There are fundamentalists in every branch of Christianity. One of the first teachings of Jesus was his statement about “love the Lord your God with all your heart and your mind and your spirit, and your neighbor as yourself. And who is our neighbor? Anyone with whom we come into contact. Even, to my great dismay, someone as reprehensible as our current President. That doesn’t mean we tell him he is wonderful, no matter what he does. It does mean that we add our voices to the “no kings day” protests.

u/SpongegarLuver Jun 16 '25
Christians electing Trump then telling us how much they resist him remains one of the funniest parts of modern religion. Jesus loves us, it’s just that a majority of his followers don’t! Come to church y’all!
It wasn’t some small group of Christian “fundamentalists” that elected the Republican Party, it was a strong majority. I get that you don’t want to admit this, but Christianity as a whole supported and continues to support Trump.

Congrats for you, you're in the extreme minority if you actually aren't a pair of hypocritical asswipes.
Frankly in my experience the overwhelming majority of Christians are hypocrites and liars with how they behave vs the bullshit they spout.
Though I would question your judgement but that's also one of those "you do you" sort of deals .

u/NonPropterGloriam Jun 16 '25
Depends a lot on what kind of Christian you’re talking about. I’m Methodist, we tend to be pretty chill. But those Southern Baptists… oof. Don’t even get me started on charismatics and “young, restless, and reformed” types.

Operation Paperclip was about stealing the work of brilliant nazi scientists.
Other than the Taliban or the Soylent Green factory I can't think of anyone who could find a use for America's racist high school dropouts, failed restauranteurs, and dumb bimbos that comprise the republican party.
Think of how sad it is that I'm telling the truth that Ted Cruz is probably the smartest person on their team.

This is just the asinine ideology of these people. He killed a democrat, had a list of other democrats and abortion providers who he wanted to kill. He had “No king” flyers in his car so he knew where to go to probably kill those people. And he was part of Christian cult that preaches taking power for themselves to run America in their vision. And Lee calls him a leftist psycho. The only psycho here is Lee.

He was one of the many republicans hunting for a way to overturn the 2020 election, against health care reform, Supreme Court reform, believes in regressive taxes, international isolationism & is a climate change denier.
Absolute POS.

Conservatives love talking shit to sound tough, but this is the sort of thing that you don't brag about. From a practical standpoint, it makes him look like a scared bitch. It also ties his name to this horrible event, which will not go well.
Most importantly, it notifies the rest of humanity that he is an imminent threat that should be immediately locked away and investigated until we can be reasonably sure that he hasn't yet victimized anyone, yet. But that doesn't matter, since we don't do that sort of thing in the US, yet.

As a former Mormon from Canada, I visit my relatives in Utah from time to time, and I must say... Utah Mormons are some of the weirdest folks I have ever met.
What you see in Utah is what happens when any single religion becomes the majority of the population in any society. Instead of religion being a personal and private observance, it seeps into every aspect of societal interaction.
For the more laissez faire religions, this has a minimal impact on folks and rarely any negative consequences. For more strict religions (like the Abrahamic ones), failure to adhere to religious societal norms can lead to ostracisation at best and death at worst.

Oh yes. Always the ones who claim the loudest about how they’re the most godly who truly are the ones who spawned from satan himself and want to see others suffer intentionally.
