Matthew SheffieldWow I just got a text from Mormons in my area. I've not been contacted by them in like 20 years. Seems like they'd have realized that I'm not interested after all this time!
Stuff like this is why your reputation has problems, guys.
thepoliticalcat@mattsheffield Why would you WANT those creepy PDF files to contact you? Utah has THE WORST rate of CSAM search and distribution of any state in the US.
The Cyberwitch@mattsheffield "you can leave the church but you can't leave it alone," they say as they track you down again
The Flight Attendant@mattsheffield I'm pretty sure as soon as we moved to Vegas, my parents gave the LDS church our new address. The missionaries come by all the time, the relief society president sends me birthday cards. I used to be annoyed by it- but i chose to not remove my name from their records, just in case i ever need help moving, or digging a big hole. #exmo
@CosmicTraveler Yeah I never bothered to do name removal, because I would still be part of the church through my personal and family history. And I don't even acknowledge their pretended authority to keeping records for eternity.
In my case, they didn't invite me to anything fun or useful. No, it was to clean the building. Why would anyone think that cleaning a church you don't attend be some sort of reactivation incentive? Even the Mormons themselves hate doing it!
@mattsheffield LOL WTAF! Okay, I remember cleaning the building as a member too... but what the actual fuck? They just invited you to clean the building right NOW? Lmfao like seriously ROTFLMFAO! I guess they're going after the freaks who like to clean?!!??? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 #exmo Also LOL about the records keeping for eternity, yes, i agree! It's a joke. It's funny to think of in retrospect!
@CosmicTraveler Yeah I had a good laugh when I saw the message, it was so totally clueless.
I would guess that this is some new leadership fad based on the actual reality that serving others builds relationships. But in this case, you're not serving your own community, you're cleaning a someone else's church.
The notion is completely backwards, but they can't even see it.
@mattsheffield It's good for a laugh though! 😆😆😆
