Dumped by girlfriend/boyfriend after joining the Mormon church?

So now you are a Mormon, but you look a little like a fool.
...

Only if you believe in magic are you anything different from what you were before you joined.

I am so sick of that fucking trial. Every night they seem to devote half the newscast to it because they think it will help their fucking ratings.

I hope they fry her because I'm sick of looking at her fucking face.

At this point I'm a little hardened about the crime and amused by the whole thing. At very least the Mormon guy chose the wrong woman to use. I don't really feel sorry for him. You could make a "Tales From The Crypt" show from the story.

Let's admit it, though. Guys are not terribly fussy.

The way I see it, anyone who force/trick you into join their religion deserve to be stabbed.

The way I see it, anyone dumb enough to convert for sex deserves to be dumped.

Actually, let me put that into female perspective - if this guy was saying she had to convert in order for something to happen, she clearly forgot something:

Power of the Pussy.

When I was still masquerading as a believing Jew, my ex knew that our kids were getting raised Jewish, not Baptist, or he could forget about getting into this pussy.

It's that simple. Stick up for yourself.

So, it seems that Jodi Arias admitted to killing him in self-defense, and this self-defense involved stabbing him 25 times, shooting him in the head, and slitting his throat. Something about all of that doesn't seem to indicate self-defense to me. The fact that at some point she took photos of him bleeding to death (which she then deleted) also don't support the self-defense claim.

I've got to say that even if the guy did mess her around and use her, he doesn't deserve to die because of it.

Yep, I have to agree with you Tib. Now I haven't bothered to look into this case, as you have, but let me add my 2c.

I'm a rather traditional when it comes to sex, and it upsets me greatly when men use women or women use men. One of my friends got knocked up when she was 18, and then dumped by the bastard. One of my friends used to get beaten up by her boyfriend every other day. She used to go out and use random men - 2 or 3 times a week. One of my closer friends uses (and hurts) woman after woman.

If there's one thing I've learned in all this it's that you need to take responsibility for your own actions, if you let people use you and walk all over you, then you can't expect the situation to improve and change all on its own.

If you're dumb enough to join a religion because you're interested in someone then that's your own problem. And if you're a bad enough person to use people as "sex toys", regardless of the fact that they "let you" there are consequences one way or the other, and feeling the wrath of their anger and resentment at you is one such consequence.

Now I am not arguing that it was ok that she shot and stabbed him to death -- but I certainly see how the who thing would make her very angry. Maybe he didn't deserve to get shot and stabbed to death but I have a hunch that he was not merely an innocent victim of a crazy woman.

I'm thinking that the only questionable part is the word "innocent."

[Aractus]

^A victim doesn't have to be innocent ...

The Mormon girl acts VERY interested in you. She is beautiful and personable. She convinces you to join the Mormon (LDS) religion.

So you join the LDS Church... Only to find out that she has a "fiancee" how lives a long distance away -- and he has proposed to her.. And so now she is breaking it off with you. So now you are a Mormon, but you look a little like a fool. Several different members offer to help you out by setting you up with various women -- all divorced, all with children, and not nearly as beautiful or personable as the woman you joined the Church for.

This is no different from any other cult. They lure you in with candy, that turns out to be ash. They just use the most desirable 'candy'. What can I say, sex sells.
