Horrible acting as well! SUICIDE IS NEVER AN OPTION...IT ALWAYS GETS BETTER. How dare the bitch! These cult leaders will never listen to logic,I agree with everything said up to 2:28
#BeHereTomorrow
Isn't that the hashtag inspired by the guy who survived the Golden Gate Bridge? Lol TEAM RIPPLE! How about Team Find A Higher Bridge Next Time#BeHereTomorrow
Horrible acting especially on the part of the "friend" lol.Lol. I can't even be mad about the stupidity of the message, the acting is just too funny.
She still doesn't seem all that enthused about life. She's just going to the motions believing that a fairy tale character has a plan for her. She probably believes that she will go to hell if she CTB now. At least Pat Robertson is happy right?The whole video should have just been various black-and-white closeups on those razor blades. I feel like that would have made it even more intense. RAZOR BLADES RAZOR BLADES RAZOR BLADES DEPRESSION AAAAHHHHH
I was starting to feel happy, and then she had to go and ruin it by burying them and accepting Jesus. Sad.
Oh, don't I know it. I almost jumped off a building multiple times when I was at BYU. By the time I left there I was thinking about suicide all day, every day. But I couldn't muster the courage to jump. I was afraid of eternal damnation, but honestly, I was even more afraid of not dying when I hit the ground, and then having to deal with the shame of trying and failing to kill myself while surrounded by Mormons. If I had access to a gun at the time I for sure wouldn't be here. I've never been so depressed as I was when I was Mormon.She still doesn't seem all that enthused about life.

I forgot you were Mormon too. My Aunt went to BYU in the early 80s. While there, she went though a period of depression and suicidal thoughts. Never acted on them. People would openly fat shame her. This one guy walked up to her and said "I'd date you if you lost some weight".Oh, don't I know it. I almost jumped off a building multiple times when I was at BYU.

Yeah, Mormons are stereotyped as being super nice people, but the college kids at BYU are just as cunty as students at any other college in my experience, if not worse. I mean, they're just as stupid and full of themselves as any kids are at age 18, plus they think they're God's chosen people.I forgot you were Mormon too. My Aunt went to BYU in the early 80s.

I often thought about jumping but for some reason the prospects of even being conscious for 20 seconds afterwords was enough to scare me away. I'm still thinking about jumping off that bridge if the other plan fails. It's 876 feet high and about an hour away.
For some reason, I was never afraid of Hell when I was a Christian. I always had this feeling that god would understand. Plus I thought the Mormon church believed that if you CTB you would end up in the "Telestial Kingdom" (the lowest level of heaven) after spending time in "Spirit Prison". Joseph Smith said something along the lines of "if you could see the lowest level of heaven you would kill yourself to get there". He also said quakers lived on the moon lol.
God loves you so much that if you try to get out of this world due to severe pain, he will send you to hell for eternity. You can't make this insane shit up!

That is true about the Telestial Kingdom. I believed a similar thing to you, as I figured that since God is all-powerful and all-knowing, he must have known from the first moment that I was going to CTB, so if anything it would have been his fault. I also had my doubts about the church at the time, so it felt like a pretty decent bet either way, which is why I know that, if I'd had a simple and sure method at the time, like a firearm, I'd have done it. The pavement wasn't certain to kill me at that distance, and either way, jumping requires some serious willpower I would think. I'd only do that now as a last resort.
I did not know Joe said that Quakers lived on the moon, but he's definitely said crazier things lol. Of course, that's the sort of embarrassing thing the modern church tries to hide, so it makes sense I never heard about it while I was Mormon.
The Mormons hides a lot. This is why I had to discover this shit on my own. The Quakers on the Moon was never in the Book of Mormon or the Doctrine in Covanents...just some stupid thing he said.Yeah, Mormons are stereotyped as being super nice people, but the college kids at BYU are just as cunty as students at any other college in my experience, if not worse.

It wasn't your fault. It's hard to break free from lifelong indoctrination. At least you know better now.I use to be a Mormon missionary. In my defense I was indoctrinated since birth.
People who are against choice are predators plain and simple.This is what I hate about society - it uses your emotions to prey on you and guilt you, but it doesn't care about your feelings beyond what it can use to manipulate you. Want to kill yourself? But we need tax revenue, let's spew out some sappy videos. In the market to buy something? No? But of course you are, more primal, fear based advertising please.
Honestly, I haven't done a whole lot of research into church history since I left the church, so I don't really know too much about it. But I will say, although I don't necessarily think Brigham Young gave the order directly, I wouldn't call them renegades either, mainly because I wouldn't be surprised if he was behind it after all. At best, he was vaguely aware something like that might happen and did little to stop it, and even that seems to be giving him a bit too much credit.The Mormons hides a lot.

They don't even like to talk about their belief that God lives on the planet Kolob or that Native Americans are descents of Jews. They blush when asked why blacks couldn't get the priesthood until 1978. They will never tell you the true story of Joseph Smith or about how he was arrested for terroritic acts in Missouri. He had his followers burn down a newspaper building!
What is your opinion of the Mountain Meadows Massacre? Do you think it was an inside job propagated by Brigham Young or done by a bunch of renagade Mormons without his knowledge?
This girl is now an adult and never changed her mind on this issue.
Exactly! I want to CTB to end my suffering. Not because some doctor thinks I'm useless. What she preaches is tyranny not freedom. Pure right wing religious propaganda.She speaks of liberty but how can we have liberty when we don't have a choice? She also assumes that there are no people who truly want to die. Not so. She is attempting to fear monger, presenting unrealistic scenarios where doctors are killing many people against their will. It is an easily solvable problem. there are safeguards that can be put in place to prevent that. She has a very weak argument.
