And I Love That Religion (especially My Own) Is A Statistically Proven Protective Factor Against Suicide - Blog Posts

3 months ago

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:

Mormonism Makes Me NOT Want To Kill Myself. It Gives You Me A Purpose In Life, Even A Purpose Within

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 :)
