My Mormon parents

[NuclearEnergy]

Well, I'm back home from school for the summer. I'm currently taking some classes online to get me busy, and got a job. However, I find some things with my parents rather difficult. I drink Monsters quite a bit and they are fine with it. However, I was at the store a few days ago with my Dad. Went to go grab a box of them and I picked the Pink Lemonade Iced Tea flavor (It's my favorite) and he stopped me and said "You're not getting that it's Tea! It's against the Word of Wisdom". 

I really just don't understand this. Why would they be so surprised if I drink loads of caffeine that I like something with Iced tea in it? And it was with my money, too. lol

But anyways, my parents have no idea that I'm sort of the deviant by their standards. I'm secretly an agnostic. Heck, while i am not really a social drinker, I do enjoy an occasional 24 oz of Corona on a Friday night back in Tucson. 

But hey, I just have to deal with this for 2 months. It's really no big deal. At least they are accepting of me drinking energy drinks though. And, I also graduate in a year!   I plan on teaching.

Look, I love my parents and respect their religious beliefs. However, I just wish they would get the message. I mean, the last time I attended 3 hours of church was way way long ago. If I do go it's because I'm back home and I just go to church with them for an hour to please them. My Dad is a stake president, too. [If you don't know what that is, look it up] so my life growing up within the LDS Church was pretty interesting. 

But I digress.

I have friends in Tucson. You're fairly close to me, yo. Tip: put your drinks into foam cups with lids and you're good to go.

Joseph Smith didn't follow the Word of Wisdom, and  neither did Brigham Young.

haha the beer is not really an issue with me. I wouldn't dare drink that here back at home out of respect for my parents rules. But back in my apartment in Tucson I do occasionally on a lonesome Friday night.

"You're not getting that it's Tea! It's against the Word of Wisdom".

As a riposte try:  "So is jerking off, Dad, but I do that too."

You are damn right I do! However, I don't do it as often though. Maybe I'm losing my sex drive already? After all, I've been lusting after big breasted, big asses Latina's on a computer screen since I was 14. lmao

according to the ORIGINAL version of the polygamy revelation, your first wife must be Caucasian, (white and delightful unto the Lord), and then your subsequent wives must be Native American.  And it's OK if you want to marry Native American women who are sisters, or mother and daughter(s) if you want.  It is intended your offspring with the subsequent wives will be lighter than their mothers, and more delightful.


Hope that doesn't mess up your plans too much . . . .

I see that this is an old thread, from 2017, but it is in the list at the bottom of the page.
So, I’ll respond.

You can give your parents and any other mormons a dose of reality:
A bunch of ex-mormons were having a conversation in a forum.
They were saying that about 2/3 of their family members were quitting mormonism.
The LDS church does not wish to spread bad news and so, they don’t publish statistics.

A bunch of them were saying how some wards are almost empty.
One exmormon from the UK said that his ward number was increasing.

Overall, mormonism is crashing. It is said to be the fastest crashing religion.

So, we have reached 2021. What evidence has science found that says native americans were jews? What evidence is there that they used reformed egyptian. Any written evidence in hebrew?
The evidence amounts to a perfect 0.

Gold plates, two stones and a hat?

Didn't know about the native sister wives deal.  When I think about adding that to the Puerto Rican/Irish girl mix, I feel Jesus or something.
