This gave me Mormon business cult-ure vibes. Also the cult tried to make me feel like my life would be empty without their busywork (callings, daily self-indoctrination study, etc.), pointless meetings, and social events all revolving around the cult. Turns out the exact opposite was true.4yr ⋅ BasicTruths ⋅ r/exmormon

Glanced at a paper while visiting parents and saw this sad thought about my beliefs in their church notes. It saddens me that they are taught to be hurt by my escaping of the cult.

Was Joseph Smith Jr. fat? I've seen two sources and a contemporary 1843 painting by a woman married to an apostle which suggest he was an overweight man later in life. Not fat shaming here, just curious since the cult often portrays him as a thin Scandinavian model.7yr ⋅ BasicTruths ⋅ r/exmormon
