Mormon Tendencies

Even from a young age, I knew I was Mormon.  I just felt different from all the other kids.  All the other kids would talk about revivals and the importance of their youth ministers in their lives and I just couldn’t relate.  I would just smile and nod.  What would they think if they knew that sitting right next to them was a kid who not only didn’t believe in the Trinity as established by the Nicene Creed, but also accepted modern prophetic revelation and an open canon of scripture?  Could they accept me for who I was?  I doubted it.

It all became public when they found me on the back seat of the bus reading The New Era.  My secret was out.  I was Mormon and everyone knew.  But instead of feeling ashamed, I felt relieved.  I felt free.  I was Mormon and I didn’t care who knew it!

Dumb, I know.

Welcome to the (re)blog of a quarter-aged sarcastic scrawny gay Mormon who wants to change the world but mostly wants to take a nap.

    Thanks.

    After what turned out to be an embarrassing long search of the WordPress Dashboard (WordPress rocks my world), I found out how to turn emoticons off. Blech indeed.
