the whole scripture thing it comes from literlaly just says “hot drinks”
very specific, i know

it later got specified by some leader guy and everyone just goes with it

this is a joke right

nope

ive had it like once but this is beacuse i hate carbonation

i would be shocked if root beer wasn’t a nationwide thing

oh yeah I legit don’t know if its nationwide lol

its like one of those things that FEELS like it should just be utah
like “fry sauce”

i think fry sauce exists elsewhere as “mayochup”

fry sauce is a midwest thing. it was also in Idaho I remember. I was super fucking confused too because some locals were like “you gotta try fry sauce” and then found it was just ketchup and mayo.

my parents are always like
“OH YOU CAN BE GAY/TRANS AND MORMON AT THE SAME TIME”
and I’m just like (internally)
“i believe that anyone who cannot accept me cannot truly love me. needless to say the church does not accept me for who i am (see: the family proclamation). also it literally advocates for all of these wildly transphobic things; the people who stay in the church anyways just choose to ignore it because of blind faith (well, usually). like how i ignored all of the other signs it was fake!”

tl;dr fuck no i aint staying in the church

stg my dad always advocates for seeing both sides of an issue EXCEPT if it’s the church because “the prophet told me that i should not listen to those who seek to destroy the church” or whatever

incase you could not tell I am exceedingly angry about this

Adam Savage once called religion a mind virus that suppresses critical thinking, and I think about that quote a lot.
