This is one of the reasons I have zero sympathy for Christians shedding crocodile tears over the rise of secularism and “intolerance towards God” because no one does intolerance better than conservative religious types.

That “All you need to do to be saved is accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior” line comes with a whoooooole lot of fine print.

One thing tends to stay consistent among fundamentalist sects of religion - whether they are in the subcontinent of Asia, Africa, or over there in Utah a solid thread of misogynistic patriarchy runs through them.

This is the mainstream Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The fundamentalist sects that broke off from the LDS are worse.

The ‘solid thread of misogynistic patriarchy’ runs through mainstream religions (as well as other cultural institutions). Fundamentalist sects are usually worse.

Kate Kelly is not the first feminist to be excommunicated by the LDS.

I consider the mainstream LDS church borderline fundamentalist along with the Southern Baptists.

What do they have that, for instance, the Catholics don’t?
