A fifth of Mormon college students in the US say they’re LGBQ+

The news might rattle Dallin H. Oaks, but according to Religion News Service, of “the Mormon/LDS respondents, 78% said they were heterosexual, 6% bisexual, 3% gay or lesbian and 13% something else (which can include asexual, pansexual, queer, questioning and others).”

Another surprising finding, “Despite being more left-leaning than their Mormon elders, the students are not exactly liberal in comparison to their peers. They have the lowest rate of “Strong Democrats” of any religious group among the college students in the study, at just 10%.”

The full story can be found here: religionnews.com/2023/09/22/a-fifth-of-mormon-college-students-in-the-us-say-theyre-lgbq-new-stud...

Bias can play a significant role in shaping our beliefs. Our biases are influenced by our personal experiences, cultural background, upbringing, and social influences.

These biases can lead us to interpret information in a way that confirms our existing beliefs and dismiss or ignore evidence that contradicts them.

As a result, our beliefs can be distorted or skewed, reflecting our own subjective perspectives rather than objective truth.

It is important to recognize and critically examine “what is true” vs. “what we want to be true” to ensure that our beliefs are based on evidence, reason, and fairness. Just because something isn’t *your* experience, doesn’t mean it’s not the real experience of another person.

And maybe most important point: stop putting words into God’s mouth.

The church needs your stories—unless you’re trans or non-binary.

Join the growing number of recorded stories that are carefully edited, scripted and crafted to highlight a specific (and often unsustainable) aspect of being an LGB Mormon. *they have specifically excluded transgender stories*

The church is looking for more people they can use like a debit card. When your story changes or takes you in a different direction, you can be certain that your stories will be deleted and replaced with another debit card that gives the church continued spending power.

May the odds be ever in your favor.
