I’ve lived In Utah most of my life, and never had neighbors who weren’t staunch mormons. I mean, my family was descended from Mormon pioneer stock, from my great great grandfather Parley P. Pratt on down. But we aren’t part of the religion anymore, most of us grew brains and realized it was bullshit a long time ago.
Yet still Mormonism rules every aspect of life in Utah. Conservative “values” continue to bring such joyous outcomes as forbidding LGBTQ to be discussed in schools and preventing trans people from using public bathrooms, and now making sure all kids have the ten commandments shoved down their dumb little fucking throats at school so they can see how bad they are as humans and strive to be more like the wonderful legislatures who show us the way to good Christian enlightment with every bill they pass against gay, black or non-christian folks.
Not that I’m bitter about it or anything. At least it gives me a sense of purpose when I get to pee all over their nutjobbery on the editorial page of the Salt Lake tribune (which I do quite frequently).
