Go ahead, un-follow me, defriend me, un... + me? Or just comment - that's more fun for both of us anyway.
Just from this post, I already really really like you. I may have just been baptized Mormon but I wholeheartedly agree that the Plan of Salvation is for the LGBT+ and that woman should have a choice too. In fact, I agree with a lot of these (except replace the gay statements with "straight" and that's me... haha). I absolutely LOVE that you OWN who you are. That takes a strong person. Yeah... can we be friends? :)
ReplyDeleteMikael,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your kind comment. I apologize for taking so long to respond to you! I've been somewhat absent from the blog scene recently (school takes over my life each fall...). We live in an amazing and very strange time in Mormon history. I pray we all come out of it on the right side.
And yes, we can definitely be friends! I did see you followed me on Twitter (I haven't lost track of that part of my social media life) and followed back. ;-)
Thanks again,
Jason
