AU WHERE JESS IS ONE OF THE SPECIAL CHILDREN!!! PLEASE!!!!!

for my fellow lds folks, check out emma nissen!! you are obviously also welcome to check her out if you’re not, but she is lds iirc so that’s more where her music is based. she does christian music in a jazz style, and i love it!! these are some of my favorites of hers:

you don’t hate modern religious music, you hate megachurch worship bands that play to packed stadiums and roll in cash while writing the most stereotypical and soulless lyrics imaginable

"what do eggs have to do with Jesus?"

Eggs are actually a really common piece of Christian symbolism for the Trinity. It's a shell, a white, and a yolk, but it's all one egg. Just like how God is made of the Father Son and Holy Spirit.

You know that image that's like, a youth pastor explaining the Trinity with a fidget spinner? It's like that. That was the metaphor every medieval monk used to explain the basics.

The narrative is sentient and it is coming to GET you

Hey, it’s that time of year again when I get annoyingly Mormon. You can block the “tumblrstake” tag if that bugs you.

dean punching sam after exorcising him of meg just pisses me off. imagine being disoriented and in pain and instead of comforting you, your brother just rocks your shit for no reason. evil

Mormonism makes me NOT want to kill myself. It gives you me a purpose in life, even a purpose within my religion. It’s a very interactive church.

Re: my last post

THANK YOU! Your statement actually aligns with current averages. Religion has a protective factor against youth suicidal ideation, even in LGBTQ+ youth. Here's a fun little graph:

In this survey, Latter-Day Saints were shown to have a rate of suicidal ideation of about half compared to their non-religious peers.

I made a very angry post about this in September, and you can check it out here if you'd like. It talks about mostly the same information. I love my data and information, especially when it implies the opposite of what anti-Mormons claim :)
