Post-Mo on Channel 5 TV News in Phoenix
Channel 5 TV News in Phoenix ran a short news story about our billboard in Gilbert, and about the Post-Mormon Community.
Lyndon Lamborn, a former Mormon in the area was interviewed and a few of his statements were included in the story, along with a couple of residents of the Gilbert area. Below is video of the news story.

I love how they included the first bystander’s comment, “Oh my God!”. hehehe |

I actually just found out about this website this last weekend when a story on the billboard aired on another news channel. So far, I am very impressed with the site, and grateful for the support it has provided me, just in knowing I’m not alone. |

It’s interesting how the (presumed) mormon refers to the billboard as “discriminating against [mormons]”. This victim mentality is typical of how mormons automatically refer to inconvenient truths (TRUTHs) about their history as “anti-mormon”. The real victims are those for whom the billboard is intended. (and if Nancy is not a mormon, I apologize.) |
||
It amazes me that anyone would see such a billboard as anti anything! It is just about as innocuous as you can be while still getting the message out there to those who need support. |
||
Funny how the bars and Budweiser don’t try to cry persecution over AA billboards. |
||
Nancy Rogen strikes me as just a clueless bystander who was willing to be interviewed on air. I doubt they could get a bishop or a SP to comment on it. |
||
On the channel 12 episode I saw, someone from the church did comment, but they didn’t say what his calling was. |
||
I think the guy is either a stake president or a regional rep. I know for a fact that he’s a prominent businessman in the area, which usually translates into a high Church calling of some kind. |
||
Where does this quote about the threats to the church being gays, intellectuals etc come from? I would love to know! |
||
The statement should be, “gays, intellectuals and feminists.” Below is a link to a talk by Boyd Packer. It’s from that talk that the statement is derived. http://www.zionsbest.com/face.html |

Thanks Jeff! Love that quote…. |

heathens |

As far as “gays, Intellectuals, and Feminists” being a threat to the church really says something. Heaven forbid someone is born differently, thinks about and questions what is being taught to him/herself and his/her children, and demand equal rights for women. You have to follow blindly, don’t ask questions, and be content with your traditional role as a woman. I’ll never be comfortable with that. |
